Sich a dumb word, but somehow I never really clicked on this word: "question". I have spoken the word a lot, but somehow I practiced speaking english less when I moved away from my parents to study. English became more of a read and written language than spoken, so the words became just things to read, not to sound out loud.
After attempting to speak a bit more english again, words were drawn from memory by how they were written. And for some reason the word "question" was incredibly weird. "Kuest-ion"? No, I'm sure there is a "ch"-sound in there. "Kwest-chien"?
I had to check out some youtube videos on pronounciation to get it right.
Oh man, there must be dozens of examples like this you have. It's such a weird language, with so many words and spellings and pronunciations from so many sources.
I'm from American south, I've always said and heard "kwest-chen" - now I'm sitting here saying it over and over wondering how much is regional accent
It's all good. I sat kwestchen.
Ugh, as a young child I thought train was spelled "Chrain" for the same reason. People getting lazy and softening a T sound to a CH sound is fine, but can't we update the spelling too?
