Words, you gotta love 'em

It's all about words

  Did you know that apron, umpire and adder all used to start with the letter "n"?  No, I didn't either.  Words change over time the letter arrangement, the pronunciation or a complete spelling change, because language evolves.
  Bird was originally spelled brid and wasp was waps - the spelling changed, but look closely at how each of those words are pronounced - tricky.
  We won't even go into words in use now that we never used, or how we each pronounce things a little differently from each other.
