A Humble Concern of Accentual Adamancy
Alright, fellow Redditors, let's dissect a linguistic quirk that's been making my brain itch since the middle ages...
When will our fellow Bangladeshis transcend the persistent use of "Bh" for "V"?
I understand that early educational influences can be deeply ingrained. However, in this era of unprecedented educational access and technological connectivity, surely we could expect to progress beyond this, no?
With the global information sphere readily accessible in every corner of the world, not to mention the constant influx of English content we consume via social media platforms everyday, why does this phonetic oddity still exist amongst us?
It appears to be a deeply entrenched cultural habit, that many are reluctant to give up, even with conscious awareness.
Honestly, I think this attitude needs to change asap. I understand it's harder for older people to change, but makes me cringe when I hear younger people pronounce "hurt" as "heart", love as "laav", victory as "bhictory"...bhaiya as "vaiya"...
