You don't know how those posters say "plan"

Anyhow I don't think the difference would utterly ruin the pun.

it's really fun to say "does god have a plan for me?" in a despairing voice where plan rhymes with flan, try it. you feel like you're roleplaying some peasant during the black death.

Googles search results are broken af these days. It's probably AI written articles trying to gaslight you into thinking it's pronounced the wrong way. Do not let the machine tell you what is right or wrong.

There’s actually a really neat linguistic reason for this and why our pronunciation varies despite similar spellings and vowel usage.

Migration, education, and cultural differences among other things all play roles in why English is hosed up.

English is fine. I would never badmouth a beautiful tool of information sharing like a language. We are all just grunting apes anyway. All the languages are fine and good.


Except French. French is so loving ugly.

I had a German linguistic anthropology professor once who would rant for hours if you got her started on people who call German ugly and guttural while calling French beautiful and musical. She always had endless counterexamples of pretty, lilting German and the harshest French gutterspeak imaginable.

She also made me notice how much is culturally ingrained in the way people do stereotypical accents, always yelling and spitting like Hitler for German but doing some sexy Pepe Le Pew for French. Switch your over-the-top characters and, surprise, the language sounds different.

I wonder what the stereotypical German was before WW2. Did everyone try to imitate Wilhelm II?
