How Spelling Keeps Kids From Learning
I should say "often" rather than "usually". Regular french nouns are much stricter in contrast.

That I can believe. English proper nouns are likewise typically more badly behaved, especially British English ones: Worcester (
WUSS-ter
), Featherstonehaugh (
FAN-shaw
), Dalziel, (
d'-YELL
), Menzies (
MING-iz
).
