ELI5: Why can't we spell words phonetically?
All weird spellings are the result of us pronouncing things differently than we used to. 'Phone' is based on the greek 'Phone' meaning 'voice', but the ancient Greeks would have prounounced it like p'ho-nay. We started saying it wrong because we're lazy. Knight, similarly, used to be pronounced like 'k'nig'hit, but that was hard, so we just say 'Knight' now. More on reddit.com

Can we assemble a master list of ND phone numbers and what they spell out?

For example:

  • Bess: -4468 = hint

  • Ned: -4357 = help

  • George: -2583 = clue

But what about others?

Iโ€™m currently playing White Wolf, so here are my contributions:

  • Chantal (ICE): -2274 = cash
