It upsets me that there are no umlauts in the word umlaut

@CiaraNi those umlauts are more metal than the umlauts metal bands use

Hm. I guess you have a point there.

@hanscees I like articles about umlauts written by Motorhead in the New Yorker

@mcsquank Aren't they just. Magnificent umlauts.

@CiaraNi Well, it depends where in Germany you are because in some parts, they definitely pronounce that word with so many umlauts

@hanscees Sorry, that only made sense inside my head. And it's not even all umlauts. The New Yorker insists on persisting with the use of diaeresis - naïve, coöperation, etc
Edited to add: I love your meme there

@CiaraNi You will be pleased to hear about the Finnish word ääkkönen (usually used in the plural, ääkköset). Apparently nowadays accepted as an actual word, even if originally invented as a pun.

@czottmann I need them to start spelling the word with so many umlauts too, please, because it feels wrong without them
-
@rvedotrc I mean, it's only right and proper. Like your other examples. The word umlaut needs to start practising what it preaches.

And the word 'stød' isn't pronounced with a stød in it. What's with that?! -

@CiaraNi I don't know it's because IAM autistic I like memes so much to do the wording for me. Anyway, I steal memes like a rat steals rings only to use them later to do my talking
So the meme was stolen and not mine, but quite accurate -
Respect for choosing typographical order over digital noise

"ääkkönen: (computing) Any of the letters Å å, Ä ä or Ö ö, which are found in the Finnish alphabet, but not in the English one. "
I am indeed most pleased to hear about this word. Thank you.
