Op must be one of those persons who only learned one language in their life, and never branched out other languages that use the thorn.
Sucks to be monolingual ig.
I wonder if they also get aneurisms in One Piece too.

Op is one of those people who find it easier to read when words are spelled correctly and don’t shoehorn in a throwback letter that hasn’t been used in English for centuries.
Notably, there is only one language that still uses the thorn. Icelandic has less than 500,000 speakers worldwide. Also notably, Icelandic is not English and whether or not you’re bilingual doesn’t excuse poor spelling skills.

Skill issue
Norwegian, Swedish, Finlandic, Faroese, Welsh, and Gaelic would like a retraction of your insolence.
Bet too that OP can’t into ᚱᚢᚾᚪ either.

None of those languages have thorn in their modern alphabets.
And every example you pointed out is valid English. You should probably learn it if you are going to nitpick other people’s grammer

I am not the one nitpicking LMFAO, i like folks be quirky in their expressions. The internet is a weird network, dunno why grammar nazis apply.

Those conjugations are correct.
“don’t” applies to the plural subject of “words”. “hasn’t” applies to the singular subject of “letter”. “you’re” is using the general “you” in English that replaces the archaic/formal “one”. “doesn’t” applies to the singular concept of being or not being bilingual.
It might help to read the first sentence like:

Verb + adverbs are not conjugations 🤣😂.
I am pointing out _skj is very particular on what they consider “easier to read when words are spelled correctly.” It boils down to preferences not everyone adheres to. Maybe get a linguistic retrospective recheck, boomer.

My god, how are you struggling with this concept.
The person in the example was not writing those languages!
They were writing modern English, which does not use that character.
I personally don’t give a flying fuck if someone wants to be creative and use a non standard character in their writing, but for you to pretend that this person was writing some other language is so far fetched.

LMFAO, how did you read my mocking diction as a struggle? I am exemplifying folks just want to bitch about language as much as they don’t bitch about theirs.
Logs in eyes and all that.

Are you claiming all those languages are still using the letter th in modern times?

Yes, and a Runic reemergence.
