  þ =th in Anglo-Saxon Runic alphabet

  Wouldn’t “the” and “this” become ðe and ðis?

  I don’t know all the linguistic terminology, but I remember thorn being pronounced as in the word itself, while adding a sting changed it’s pronunciation to be like “then”

    In case you’re not terminally online enough to be aware of the Lemmy Discourse^TM, one user has been persistently using the thorn in otherwise ordinary (or even high quality) comments and it’s made a lot of people very unhappy. This has been enough of a thing that piefed had an instance-optional filter to convert þ->th for a while, though it’s been removed since then.

    I think most of the negative reaction to your post is people upset about the thorn specifically rather than your post/comment

      Oh yeah I know! I just did it to stir the pot. I never even use the thorn, I just think it’s funny watching people retch whenever it’s used.
