On: Initial Stress-Derived Noun

[Razengan]

> there are all sorts of absolutely bonkers rules to English that 99% of people can’t describe

It’s especially annoying when English natives arrogantly deride other languages for being too complicated or ambiguous. Like, buddy, do you even know how many different ways are to just pronounce one letter in English?? (e.g. “Pacific Ocean” or “ghoti” = “fish”)

That's hardly unique to English. Heck, even in German, there are at least four ways to pronounce the letter "s".

[Razengan → chimeracoder]

That’s pretty much the point.
