I am fine with the weird ways words are spelled as I know the reasons are historical and beyond anyone. I have made my peace with it.
It's the fact that if you spell letter by letter like a, b, c... the way you say it rarely reflects the sound those letters make in words. That was my main issue as my brain is not wired that way. The only ones I usually have a problem with were homophones and even those I have now got used to looking for.
I just complained because when my brain sees bee or jay or you the connection of it being b or j or u is not there. In my language when spelling the letters you only ever make 1 sound for vowels and technically 2 sounds for consonants (w q x and y excluded as those are not part of our alphabet).
So sorry if I offended you by not getting these conmections and being a bit miffed at my bad result as consequence of 3 categories being practically impossible to guess for me in particular.
I think you need some introspection.
I don't think so but what males you believe I do?
You got bested by a puzzle and got angry, blamed everything except the gap in your own knowledge (I could spot homophones of letters' names in my second language, for example), and said I was offended about it, so there's three reasons for you.
