why do people spell Israel "Isreal"?

(Anonymous) 2015-03-21 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
Please, I don't want to stir shit, I just want to understand the spelling.

typo?

Typos, almost certainly

Because it's pronounced "IZ-ree-ul" (in English anyway) and that sounds a lot like the phrase "is real."

*tilts head* I've always heard it pronounced iz-RAE-uhl", and I'm in the US. Odd.

It's a misspelling born from a mispronunciation. I'd bet money most people don't even know they're doing either wrong.

OP

Thanks, everyone. Really thought there was something more I was missing.

Anon above you says, shut it with your ~mispronunciation~ claims. It's been pronounced that way long enough to become a legitimate one. Language evolves, even when it comes to the names of countries.

Re: why do people spell Israel "Isreal"?

(Anonymous) 2015-03-21 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
no...

Re: why do people spell Israel "Isreal"?

(Anonymous) 2015-03-21 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
No.

Re: why do people spell Israel "Isreal"?

(Anonymous) 2015-03-21 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
Cool, I'm going to start pronouncing "England" as "ohn-GLEEnd." Language will evolve to suit it!

guilty

Because it's an incredibly easy letter transposition both to make and to miss in a quick proofread.

I will personally say typos. One of the most common types of typos involves accidentally turning two letters around the wrong way - it's the origin of "teh".
