I dont really get why the U (which stands for universal) is a y sound. What is a y sound anyway ?
- igravious 14y agoNo problem :) Because it is pronounced youneeversal :) Also, same reason you should write a hospital (or a hotel, they are aspirated, not silent) and not an hospital (or an hotel) no matter what people try to tell you!
- qu4z-2 14y agoThis gets problematic with some words, like "herb" where aspiration varies by location.
