As this project appears to be fairly unknown in the fediverse still, I’d like to use this opportunity to advertise Flohmarkt. This Fediverse equivalent of Facebook Marketplace already has some instances up and running - see here: https://codeberg.org/flohmarkt/flohmarkt/wiki/flohmarkt-instances
I’d bet a lot of money the average English speaker pronounces Volkswagen with a “vee” at the beginning
The Latin alphabet is overloaded. Words using the same script will inevitably be interpreted by other languages using their own sound systems. Orthography is bad. Plus, it’d be like asking a Spanish speaker why they say “eschool” instead of “school” (phonotactics).
