Part 2: Vowel Shifts and The Great Vowel Shift (ft. Linguistics Professor David Wilson) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This is part 2 of my chat with Professor David Wilson, where we get into the Great Vowel Shift and why English spelling is such a mess for second language learners. We also cover mergers like cot-caught and merry-marry, univerbation, why words like bury and won't are spelled the way they are, and how English vowels (and German ones too) have been shifting for hundreds of years.
