This must be where the "Princess Pride", "Mawwige. Mawwige is what bwings us togever today." pronunciation stems from, ultimately.

Our Lord and Savior, Mohammed(PBUH), was also a "cavalryman" of sort who enjoyed riding as much as these chaps. He was most famous for his al-Zutt method.

>/his/ being retarded once again
having a small, light frame is an advantage for horseback riding. Historically cavalry officers tended to be shorter in stature

Isn't pronouncing R as W the proper way to speak English?
I mean, English language as no proper R sound and always pronounce it as W.
I can't even make out the difference between "right", "white" and "write"

>>18123877
awe you wetawded?
of couwse english has an actual w sound

>>18123576
I love that someone took the time to format their "Ode to Zutt" so precisely.

My prediction is that by this time next year, "Zuttery" will be a commonly accepted term, like pederasty or sodomy.

>>18123822
Yes

>>18123877
Write and right do sound the same, but they start with an R sound
White is different and starts with a W sound
The English R is different to the French R and much closer to the W sound, but it's still distinct from it. It's softer and pronounced in the mouth rather than the throat (I know there's a better way to explain that but I'm not a linguist and it's early)

>>18123664
Can I just mention that my favourite part of the Biggus Dickus scene is Palin very obvious rushing his read of "Incontinentia... Incontinentia Buttocks" to stop himself laughing.

Only true for light cavalry, curaissiers and all assorted heavy cavalry types wanted big burly lads.
Curaissiers in the 18th century needed to be a few inches taller than average

Don't look into the homosexual abuse british kids got into in their boarding schools.

>>18124719
and ignore the female teacher x male student problem because that's heterosexual meaning its okay.

>their large cigars were irresistible

>>18124764
British boarding schools were gender segregated, retard.

>>18124811
the student body was (and is), yes.

"uwu speak" is based on 19th century upper classes and became stock in anime. It stems in turn from the Japanese fascination with the European elite, sailor uniforms for example are based on British royalty dressing up their kids in sailor outfits.

This fascination with the west in turn stems from Japan's ancient debates about superior races. They were once rather humble and loved and imitated China as Rome with Greece, but after the Mongol invasions and their own invasion of Korea and piracy in China this soured. They then believed they had achieved harmony under Edo and a deep sophisticated culture, of course shattered by the west surging ahead in the industrial revolution.

Their view of their own superiority was mocked by their new chattering liberal middle classes, yet at the same time they were shocked by western views of white superiority. Thus they set about trying to figure out what made white people tick, speculating big eyes gave them a wider view of the world whereas the Japanese became perfectionists. Thus they set upon adopting western technology and artificially seeking new things and innovation while maintaining Japanese culture.

Every Japanese person thus had a western suit (or sailor suit for students) and a ceremonial kimono, the external world and the internal world. In theory the Kimono was the real Japan, but over time the Kimono became the costume and the suit the real Japan.

I'm too lazy to find proper sources but it is a documented linguistic phenomenon of English "r" sounds going from phonetically closer to "L" to "W", and it's been happening fairly recently and rapidly across most native English dialects starting from within the past 50-100 years. It's why native English speakers can't really roll their Rs, because they way we make our R sound is completely different from every other languages' Rs.
As a native English speaker I can tell the differences between our Rs and Ws quite easily, though I'm not really sure how to describe it since I don't have any real education in linguistics or speech pathology. The best description I can give is that Ws are more "wide" while Rs are more "tight".

If you can find audio recording of older English speakers then you could probably hear them pronouncing their Rs more in line with other languages.
Give it another 100 years or so and we'll all be speaking uwu speak, unironically.

>If you can find audio recording of older English speakers then you could probably hear them pronouncing their Rs more in line with other languages.
According to Wikipedia, the only English accents that regularly use the voiced alveolar trill (the same phoneme that appears as "rr" in the Spanish word "carro" or at the beginning of the Russian surname "Rostov") are Scottish and Welsh English, even though I do recall hearing it in some Caribbean and West African accents.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_dental_and_alveolar_trills
Then again, the alveolar flap (which can be heard in the "r" in the Italian word "orzo") is used in several accents, such as Irish, South African, certain Scottish accents, and Victorian/Edwardian-era RP.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_dental_and_alveolar_taps_and_flaps

Then again, even though some ESLs might perceive the regular English "r" sound (the voiced alveolar approximant) as sounding like a "w", I do not know of any English accents where pure Elmer Fudd speech (pronouncing "r" as "w") is seen as anything but a humorous, childish form of speech or a speech impediment.

Brits can't into the letter R.

right and write are homophones. right and white are not. you are a stupid frog-posting frog
you turn your lips into a little o to say white, but your lips barely move saying right or write

Having seen Charge of the Light Brigade (1968) and read the Flashman novels, this is extremely accurate but omits the plungers' seething hatred of any officer with any combat experience
