    “s” makes the sound in “snake”. Use a “z” for the sound in “zebra” like a normal person :P

      since when does english work with how things sound and not just how they’re spelt because that’s the rule? There’s literally endless hours of content on youtube covering the idiosyncrasies of the language

        Sorry, I don’t subscribe to the “all-or-nothing” mentality. A little bit of sanity in spelling is better than no sanity in spelling :P
