I know how you pronounce "yo", but what about "hwæt"?

Make a sound like you're clearing your throat and put a "t" at the end.

Interesting that cafe culture was alive in those days:

The long s can start a word, but not end one, and only exists in lowercase
form.

I thought the same thing. I've been studying the typography for the DOI,
and have come to the tentative conclusion that the "f" character is always
used inside a word but never to start or finish one. So "happinefs" for
example.

It's fun to read this out loud and use the sound of the letter "f" when
that alternate "s" or whatever it's called is used.

How can it start a capitalized word? I guess it can't, no?

There are SO MANY NASTY popups on that page, all of which charade as little
windows but actually take you to the page when you click on the "X", that I
don't recommend anyone go there....

It can't because there's no capital version.

Or Ambridge in Borsetshire - do you know where that is ? :-)

No. Ambridge is the most well-known fictional village in the UK. It's
the scene of The Archers, a daily 15-minute radio play that has been
running for more than 50 years.

You either love it or hate it.
