Anti-phonetic alphabet
While having a discussion in the pub about the phonetic alphabet (alpha-bravo-charlie-delta-echo-etc...), as you do, we got the idea of creating an anti-phonetic alphabet containing words that start with the letter but don't sound like they do. Examples are 'knife' for k or 'gnat' for g.
Here's the ones we got so far
a - aeon
c - champagne
g - gnat/gnome
h - human
j - jalapeno
k - knife
l - llewellyn
p - pneumatic/physics
q - qatar
s - sherry
w - whole
x - xylophone
y - yvonne
Anyone have any other suggestions? Pretty pointless I know, but most pub conversations are like that :).
Ah, and we have new foxy! :)
