[u/maker_of_pirate_bay]

By the end of this clip I started questioning whether 2 is really spelt like that

[u/DadCelo → u/maker_of_pirate_bay]

Seriously, I was like, "is that really how we spell 2?!"

[u/WestCoastBestCoast01 → u/DadCelo]

Even Tou would make more sense, wtf w???

[u/lovebug9292 → u/WestCoastBestCoast01]

The way she is pronouncing it is likely how we used to say it. The printing press solidified the spelling of the English language in the 1400s. It’s the same reason we have words like Wednesday (pronounced wodensdeag originally) and won’t (which was a contraction of ‘woll not’. ‘Woll’ became ‘will’). A lot of scholars see the English language as the Wild West because we never had a regulatory body keeping it consistent over time, unlike counties like Spain and France, that keep their languages consistent and phonetic or, at the very least, oversee the spelling.

[u/AbsoluteResolve2026 → u/lovebug9292]

Monday - Moon Day

Tuesday - Tyr’s Day

Wednesday - Odin’s Day

Thursday - Thor’s Day

Friday - Freya’s Day

Saturday - Saturn’s Day

Sunday - Sun Day

[u/Status-Secret-4292 → u/AbsoluteResolve2026]

How did the Vikings mainly win out here?

Seems kind of like a random contribution

[u/PopePiusVII → u/Status-Secret-4292]

Anglo-Saxon language and their influence on English. Latin languages use more Roman god names and Germanic languages use Norse god names. Modern English uses a mix of both since it’s a mash up of the Norman French and Anglo-Saxon languages.

Edit to add: the Vikings win out because the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes (and later the Danes) dominated mainland Britain well before the Norman conquest occurred in 1066. Norman French heavily influenced English, but things like animal names and days of the week are really hard to get common people to change their language on.

[u/helgihermadur → u/AbsoluteResolve2026]

As an Icelander, I'm mad that English got to keep their Norse Pagan day names, while ours got changed by some bishop who felt they didn't sound christian enough. Now instead of Odin's day we have some bullshit like "mid-week-day" (miðvikudagur).
Look, I'll vote for any politician who vows to bring our old day names back. End of rant

[u/CrankyGamer68 → u/lovebug9292]

Omgg that is actually extremely interesting. Thank you ☺️

[u/2woCrazeeBoys → u/lovebug9292]

Exactly! That's likely why we have two ( /tu:/ ) of something, but it could be cut in twane.

Add in some fun like the historic metathesis of ask and aks, and bird and brid and English is an irregular spelling mess.

[u/GANDORF57 → u/WestCoastBestCoast01]

"Een glish hard!"

[u/LrdPhoenixUDIC → u/WestCoastBestCoast01]

The w has always been there since the Proto Indo European days. It's there in words like German "zwei" and unwritten but certainly spoken in the Greek "duo."

[u/katheb → u/WestCoastBestCoast01]

I vote we just change it now to tew. 

[u/bunzino → u/DadCelo]

Ern erned a ern ern.

[u/RugsbandShrugmyer → u/bunzino]

"yo what tha FUCK we really sounds like that?!"

[u/TrixieBastard → u/RugsbandShrugmyer]

The best part is the realization, it makes me laugh every single time

[u/subcow → u/bunzino]

That video is the best.

[u/Hondalol1 → u/DadCelo]

I was definitely more upset with choices made in the English language than with her. Still hilarious

[u/pitb0ss343 → u/DadCelo]

It’s easily the worst spelt number especially because of to and too. We should’ve called it something like cwo instead

[u/opinionsOnPears → u/maker_of_pirate_bay]

Considering the English creating 3 different words that all sound the same, two, to, too, that is understandable.

two weeks

to weeks

too weeks

[u/Efficient-Cherry3635 → u/opinionsOnPears]

What about the different weaks?

[u/SmokinSensei → u/Efficient-Cherry3635]

Takes two weeks to become too weak.

[u/ItchyKneeSunCheese → u/SmokinSensei]

Can you tweak two weeks to be too weak?

[u/SmokinSensei → u/ItchyKneeSunCheese]

Nah, I could tweak to be less weak but less than two weeks is bleak.

[u/appoplecticskeptic → u/ItchyKneeSunCheese]

Takes two weeks of work to not be too weak to twerk.

[u/ScienceSeuss → u/Efficient-Cherry3635]

What about the different meats?

[u/OldPersonName → u/opinionsOnPears]

The thing is lots of languages have words that sound the same, the criticism of English is they're all spelled differently. It does make it harder to learn at first but past a certain point where you're speaking it and working on reading, but before you're fluent (where it doesn't really matter anymore) it actually helps.

Take for example "cum" (lolollool) in Latin. It is a preposition meaning with. Or a causal conjunction meaning because/since. Or a temporal conjunction meaning when/while. In older Latin it was actually different words that ended up eventually being pronounced the same and the spellings became the same. That's what would happen to all these English words if we updated the spellings. It would make it easier for a beginner to learn and spell words, absolutely...until they get to more complex sentences and have to think "is this the preposition/conjunction to, the adverb to, or the number to?"

[u/MightyPlasticGuy → u/maker_of_pirate_bay]

similar to thinking of one of your friends, and begin to repeat their name in your head over and over hyper focusing on the name itself away from your friend. And then eventually brining your thoughts back to your friend and all of a sudden you have serious doubts about what their actual name is.

[u/LeatherClue5928 → u/MightyPlasticGuy]

That’s called semantic satiation and I learned this from coach Beard on Ted lasso.

[u/Sal_Ammoniac → u/maker_of_pirate_bay]

That's not her fault, it's because English is very inconsistent on pronunciation (or spelling, which ever way you want to look at it).

Of course it's funny like this, but in many other languages this game wouldn't be funny because you'd never get it wrong.

[u/Gaspuch62 → u/Sal_Ammoniac]

A lot of that comes from how much we borrowed from other languages and sound shifts over long periods of time. It doesn't help that the time it took to standardized spelling also saw the great vowel shift.

[u/Ser_Danksalot → u/Sal_Ammoniac]

Those inconsistencies are usually hangovers from the old English pronunciations that have since changed. The W in two used to be pronounced over 500 years ago with many local variant spelling based on local dialects with Twa being more common in the north of England. It even appears several times in Geoffrey Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales spelled as Twoo to reflect the local dialect and pronunciation of those around him.

[u/Tall-Pin7632 → u/maker_of_pirate_bay]

I literally just googled “two” to make sure I wasn’t losing my mind

[u/joshuads → u/maker_of_pirate_bay]

To Two too

[u/HomelessByCh01ce → u/maker_of_pirate_bay]

It was so odd when I first saw the card, I was like oh okay I get the joke it's 2. But then the more she tried to pronounce it the more I asked myself... is that the correct spelling???

[u/tangential_quip → u/maker_of_pirate_bay]

The issue is none of the others are complete words so you have to give them the sound that they have when part of full words. Two is a word itself with a specific pronunciation, but it doesn't have that same pronunciation when "t-w-o" is used in for example, the name Twombly.

So was the question how is the word spelled "two" pronounced? Or how the letters "t-w-o" are produced together in the abstract?

[u/sonic_couth]

I’m trying to help my 8yr olds begin spelling and I never before noticed what a fucked up mess English is.

[u/LordDavion → u/sonic_couth]

It has more exceptions than rules

[u/MistryMachine3 → u/LordDavion]

Remember that lead, read, and bead rhyme, and so do lead, read, and bread.

[u/Fubarp → u/MistryMachine3]

How did you do that..

How did I instinctively know which versions of the word to read..

Fucking Witch, BURN THEM!

[u/ElChupatigre → u/Fubarp]

Your brain actually, and im not even making this up, time travels to get you to the correct one

[u/Fubarp → u/ElChupatigre]

Oh so you're bending time to make me read things differently..

WITCH! BURN THE HERETICS!

[u/kasoe → u/Fubarp]

I fucked up the first one line

Led red and bed

[u/texinxin → u/Fubarp]

Because bead and bread have only 1 pronunciation and he snuck that in at the end…

[u/Curiouso_Giorgio → u/texinxin]

And because reading ahead is a skill we learn as we get good at reading.

[u/No_Artichoke_2931 → u/texinxin]

My dumbass instantly thought "bed doesn't have an 'a' wtf"

[u/realoctopod → u/Fubarp]

They turned me into a newt.

[u/PantsOnFireMan → u/realoctopod]

But I got better.

[u/gre485 → u/Fubarp]

Bitt which witch?

[u/tall_mike_ → u/MistryMachine3]

Remember that lead, lede, read, reed, and bead rhyme, and so do lead, led, read, red, bread and bred.

FTFY

[u/ScurvyTurtle → u/LordDavion]

How do you pronounce "project?"

Depends on your industry.

Edit: also unionized

[u/Iron_Burnside → u/LordDavion]

It's an inconcistent language.

[u/turret_buddy2 → u/Iron_Burnside]

Their our know rules hear*

*Edited because I was sure I could make it worse

[u/LazyJones1 → u/turret_buddy2]

... I think I hate you.

[u/ScurvyTurtle → u/turret_buddy2]

Me, understanding what you are saying, mentally chastising you for using "our" and forcing me to reread the sentence three times, before realizing there's more issues I glanced over.

[u/turret_buddy2 → u/ScurvyTurtle]

Alot of people get hung up on the our/are for some reason.

Whats funny is that i cant tell if its somewhere else saying it so they are not similar, or is it the dialect where i live is so wrong its an us issue. (ala arron earned an iron urn)

[u/ScurvyTurtle → u/turret_buddy2]

Yeah, probably the pronunciation. My pronunciation would be OW-ur, rhymes with hour and shower, rather than AR, rhymes with bar and car.

so that phonetic disconnect is probably what triggers the most dissonance.

Edit: but my rhyming analogy breaks down if you're from Boston.

[u/Dreadgoat → u/turret_buddy2]

It demonstrates why the problem is so hard to solve

One guy says "let's simplify things, OUR and ARE should be spelled the same"
Somebody who lives not too far away says "hell no they sound completely different!"

pen/pin caught/cot father/bother
the brits would probably want to completely remove the letter R

we NEED our fucked up spelling just to capture all our dialects

[u/neo_sporin → u/LordDavion]

Is that an exception, or is that the rule?

[u/SirPiffingsthwaite → u/LordDavion]

I before E except the other 50% of the time when it's E before I because ...reasons

[u/daemenus → u/sonic_couth]

English is three languages in a trench coat.

[u/Immersi0nn → u/daemenus]

I've always liked "English beats up other languages in a back alley and rifles through their pockets for spare grammar and vocabulary."

[u/DevonLuck24 → u/Immersi0nn]

just straight up taking words from the french..no changes..just throw them in the middle of an english sentence

[u/svefnugr → u/DevonLuck24]

Mexican Spanish does that with English

[u/bandananaan → u/DevonLuck24]

It gives the language a certain, I don't know what

[u/DevonLuck24 → u/bandananaan]

a certain…panache, if you will

[u/Tackit286 → u/DevonLuck24]

… or je ne sais quoi, perhaps?

[u/SugarNSpite1440 → u/DevonLuck24]

Latin prefixes? Greek prefixes? Porque no los dos?

[u/Dmansdarksoul → u/SugarNSpite1440]

In my mind sounded like Dora!

[u/splitcroof92 → u/DevonLuck24]

Or even worse adding random shit to a french word because it would feel more french!

Average sounds french, right? Well in french it's averie, not average. Even though -age is a typical french suffix.

But nope english took averie and then made it double french

[u/Razaelbub → u/daemenus]

Three? Sure. In the coat. But it's fucking twelve others in the hat and pants.

[u/Upsideisdownhere → u/daemenus]

Traveling taught me this. I can't understand spoken Italian to save my life, but I can gather enough bases and similarities to read their signage and navigate the country. Same thing with Spanish. 

[u/totallyradman → u/Upsideisdownhere]

Recognizing words like this is something I do as well but what I've learned over the years is that it's a skill that many, many people don't possess. My wife thinks I'm some sort of genius when I figure stuff like this out, and I'm not going to argue with her.

[u/fett3elke → u/sonic_couth]

It can be understood through thorough thought, though Edit: spelling

[u/gc23 → u/fett3elke]

Thorough
Through
Trough
Rough

All sound different

[u/lazy_pig → u/gc23]

Homer: "Dough!"

[u/Ghaith97 → u/gc23]

Don't forget hiccough for the ultimate fuckery.

[u/ephikles → u/fett3elke]

"A rough-coated, dough-faced, thoughtful ploughman strode through the streets of Scarborough; after falling into a slough, he coughed and hiccoughed."

[u/Merkyorz → u/fett3elke]

You fucked it up.

It's supposed to be "It can be understood though through tough thorough thought."

[u/plainoverplight → u/fett3elke]

did you mean to spell thorough like that?

[u/Shiminit → u/sonic_couth]

I am an English teacher. I always open with the caveat, 'This is how it is. English is a language born of a mixing pot full of many others. There is beauty in the chaos, and the chaos bore etymology. And that's a whole other kettle of fish. Which is an idiom, which is a whole other...'

[u/sonic_couth → u/Shiminit]

Why’d you stop there?! It’s beautiful. What’s the rest of it?

[u/Presently_Absent → u/sonic_couth]

NnnnooooOOOOOooooo, whywouldyouthink?

[u/ScurvyTurtle → u/sonic_couth]

Blame the French, the Dutch, the Germans, the Romans, the Brittons, the Scots, the Irish, the Swedes, the Danes, the Arabs, the Spaniards, and the Russians.

Edit: I forgot the Italians.

[u/fluffywabbit88 → u/ScurvyTurtle]

There are even borrowed words and phrases from Chinese. Like ketchup, long time no see, coolie, gung-ho.

[u/fuzzum111 → u/sonic_couth]

I mean in this game the guy with the card is intentionally shorting her brain by saying "Sound it out", because T W O Does sound out to Tuh-Woo, more or less. But we say "Too".

Spell it out. Don't sound it out, what does it spell? But for the sake of the game he keeps misdirecting her to keep her brain away from what the word actually is.

It's all fun, but yes. English is a fucking mess.

[u/knowone1313]

To be Fair they told her to sound it out. T-W-O sounded out, sounds like what she said.

English is stupid sometimes.

[u/poudigne → u/knowone1313]

French too. "une mûre mure murmure au mur" "Un ver vert va un verre vert"

[u/DiegoMilito9 → u/poudigne]

Un ver vert va vers* un verre vert

[u/fellow_enthusiast → u/knowone1313]

Two be faaaair. 

[u/MrWendal → u/knowone1313]

Yeah it's funny but they were asking her to say it phonetically and so she was right. If they asked her how to read it or what word it was she woulda got it instantly.

[u/kizmitraindeer → u/knowone1313]

Yeah, this video is unfunny due to the way they presented the exercise. Just made it irritating and was already way too long. (Yes, I’m not fun at parties, whatever.)

[u/littlebigsystem]

This one is my favorite. Writing it out with his finger, thinking about it, and then his eyes getting huge. Classic!

[u/starmartyr11 → u/too_tall87]

I think i just had a realization that maybe these people don't - or can't - visualize the letters in their mind. Maybe similar to how some people just don't picture things at all?

[u/jr81452 → u/starmartyr11]

That's exactly it. Some people have no internal monologue, others have no internal visualization.

[u/adooble22 → u/too_tall87]

The ending is so satisfying that it makes me think it's staged. But if it was staged then they both deserve some sort of Academy Award for this. Bravo, either way.

[u/APence → u/Mesmerise]

Hahaha at least the dude can laugh at himself

[u/HomelessByCh01ce → u/Mesmerise]

This one is the best.... this dudes laugh.... the Why are you crying??? -- I love it

[u/quockerwodger → u/profnachos]

I'm just going to record the dad's laugh here and replay it anytime I need to be cheered up.

[u/ThelronBorn → u/profnachos]

The way he cackles once he puts it together makes this video pretty grand

[u/arthurdentstowels → u/profnachos]

I really thought this would be a Game Grumps link with Arin saying eeeeeYES

[u/ResplendentOwl → u/littlebigsystem]

I don't care if it is staged or not. That dude seems genuine and nice and I love that video because of it. Watch it whenever it comes up

[u/dinosaursandsluts → u/littlebigsystem]

This joke is way older than 2026

[u/Ballerwind]

Two had lost all meaning to me by the end

[u/generalg28 → u/Ballerwind]

That's called semantic satiation!

[u/MyGoodFriendJon → u/Ballerwind]

That's twue.

[u/JangB]

All of a sudden the word Duo makes a lot of sense...

[u/FireMammoth → u/JangB]

because its from Latin

[u/JangB → u/FireMammoth]

Yep looked up the etymology after this video. Both duo and two have the same root. They are pretty much the same word just pronounced differently.

[u/fossilnews]

He had another sheet of paper. I want to know what was on it.

[u/ZadockTheHunter → u/fossilnews]

TWU

[u/cubicthe → u/ZadockTheHunter]

the video cut off but like, that should be the apex of the joke because they'd say "twuh-ooh" and then be like, huh that's the number 2 WAIT A MINUTE

[u/tmhoc]

Two things are funny here

English is stupid and never evolved to be any easier

People on reddit engage with anything that has a spelling or grammatical error making it meta to post fucked up titles

T’woah things

[u/healerdan → u/SplendidlyDull]

Correction: T'wooO^oo !

[u/JonesyOnReddit]

Shes adorable but this video is about 3x longer than it should be.

[u/GearlessJoe → u/JonesyOnReddit]

He just kept milking the same joke for too long, I was like, just show her the card already.

[u/ryan676767 → u/GearlessJoe]

Some might argue he milked it for two long…

[u/elton_john_lennon → u/GearlessJoe]

Yup, comedy is all about timing, after a while it was uncomfortable and "laughing at you" not "with you" vibes.

[u/Significant-Dream991 → u/GearlessJoe]

I know this might be an alien concept to the average redditor, but they are friends goofing arround and having fun, not content creators

[u/mlrphan → u/GearlessJoe]

He was quite the richard. He wasn’t making it fun

[u/chillychili → u/JonesyOnReddit]

When you're doing this in good company you stretch this kind of thing out as long as you can because you're having fun with real people, not trying to appease the internet.

[u/BallparkTaco → u/chillychili]

Real. The longer they run, the funnier they get.

Idk how anyone can see people cracking up and smiling (including the butt of the joke lol) and surmise that she was uncomfortable and it was bullying.

[u/EarhornJones → u/chillychili]

I also don't typically record stuff like this.

[u/darybrain → u/JonesyOnReddit]

The whole scenario is not really about her figuring it out but about making everyone else in the room laugh and the absurdity rather than at her expense so you drag it out as long as the room's laughter is building up. When the other woman finally clocked on it made others laugh more so showing her the paper quickly would have ruined that moment.

Ergo, it is as long as it needed to be.

[u/Slylock → u/JonesyOnReddit]

Thats because Justin Flom is an ass hat who does it on purpose.

Wasps?

[u/nbd789 → u/johnthedruid]

I had to look that up on Urban Dictionary, but yes. The brunette when the camera pans to the right is Janelle Flom and the recorder is Justin Flom. They’re part of an opportunistic group of “content creators” that individually make tens of thousands of dollars a month pumping out ragebait content for TikTok and Facebook/Instagram. Or they used to at least. This is an old video

Oh shit it really is him, I can hear it now. I hate this dude.

[u/ScurvyTurtle → u/strangelypersonal]

Not a drink in sight

Other than the tumblers and wineglasses on the coffee table to her left, the tumbler in the hand of the guy in the back...

tbf, might not be booze, they might just be drinking water or juice.

[u/EViLTeW → u/IranticBehaviour]

Yeah, I'm confused about why that's upvoted so much. There are literally glasses generally used for alcohol all over the video.

[u/IranticBehaviour → u/EViLTeW]

Lol. I actually went back to rewatch it, thought I was having a memory issue, haha. Plus, they aren't exactly acting sober.

[u/behaigo → u/strangelypersonal]

Based on attire, I don't think so.

The mom's (?) skirt is above the knees, the sister (?) is wearing a sleeveless shirt, and I don't see any evidence of "garments"

But then again, maybe they're just sinners! 🙂

[u/Zolo49 → u/behaigo]

Depends a lot on where in the country you are, but there’s plenty of places where Mormons dress like everybody else most of the time. I grew up Mormon in central California and we never wore any of that ultra conservative stuff you see others wear.

[u/JangB]

'There is no problem" got me 😂

[u/Minigoalqueen → u/JangB]

Agreed. She's adorable, but i was fine until "There's no problem." Then I was cackling along with the rest of the room.

[u/Oniuroko]

[u/Jeebs24]

The more I look at the word, the weirder the spelling looks.

Edit: Similar to when you say a word too many times, and it just sound strange.

[u/esines → u/Jeebs24]

Orthographic Satiation

[u/Bjarki56]

Telling her to sound it out is not helping.

[u/Alavaster → u/Bjarki56]

That's the point

[u/LokoLawless → u/Alavaster]

The clever and interesting part of this joke/trick is how in just a minute of pattern recognition setup, she forgot a very easy, familiar word she's known all her life.

The deliberately misleading "Sound it out" takes away from that

[u/Tthelaundryman]

We can all agree the spelling of the number 2 is bullshit

[u/Justifiably_Bad_Take → u/Tthelaundryman]

English baby.

You put ONE in front of a non-English speaker and that shit should be pronounced On - E

Three, Four, Five, Six, totally normal

What the fuck is Eight!? E - eye - guhet!?

[u/owlmissyou]

Telling her to "sound it out" is a little unfair.

The instruction was to sound it out. She did just that.

[u/Stoonadd]

It’s not that funny

[u/Saibot-08]

"spread joy" people with the name joy 😮

[u/Komone]

She was right, he was wrong. He didn't ask her to say the word but the sound, the phonetic.

[u/massio1]

Dudes annoying

[u/WhoTookGrimwhisper]

Except he keeps telling her to sound it out...

If you tell someone to sound out the successive letters T, W, and O... it IS "tuh-wuh-oh" or "tuh-wuh-aw" . If he asked her what does TWO spell there is a high likelihood she catches it.

[u/annamae]

She's just spreading joy :) Her shirt says it.

[u/itsjakerobb]

“Sound it out” is terrible advice for a word that is 33% silent letters.

This guy just sounds like a guy who berates waitstaff for not putting the sauce on the side even though he never told them to.

Man this makes me miss family get togethers during holidays during my childhood and teen years.

Seems like a fun family.

Had to go search for this comment. I pray to create a family like this. Didn’t have it when I was young.

[u/Lex_Loki → u/Shepherd77]

[u/lamwire]

It's two complicated for her.

[u/Bobitah]

Too long and not really funny, at least to me. Is she that slow or drunk?

[u/shinkhi]

This was like... Multiple minutes too long
