It's actually pronounced pee-pull not pee-paul

same reason why you spell double as duh-bowl. either historical changes from old english or a borrowed foreign word that shifted to an anglicized pronunciation
it doesn't mean anything anymore, english is dead. you shouldn't have any interest or respect for a language that's now 50% ebonics and chopped off its pronouns to please blue haired retards. it's so fucking ugly.
>I was with them, they are my friend but there are also other people and they did that but they answered this to them but they decided that they

The word people is French, or used to be. Somehow peuple became people and the eu (ö:) became ee (i:) in English over time.

it's pipo btw

We say "folks" instead where I'm from

The International Phonetic Alphabet, motherfuckers, do you speak it?

Apparently it was /ˈpu͡ɛplə/ in Old French.

My primary discontent with the English spellings is the frequent misuses of "y",
(1) which has originally been defined as a vowel found in Greek loanwords in Latin language, but has been used for several representations of sounds inclusive of a consonant in English language,
(2) and often omits the etymological atmosphere of the words.

For those two reasons, I hope some scholars alter the spellings involving "y" broadly in following ways, of course without affecting how they are pronounced.

1. y at Ends of Words

> words of French-Latin origin
> y -> ie

> words of Anglo and other Germanic origin
> y -> ig, (i)j (based on historical transitions)

ex.
discoverie, communitie, crie(cry), deploie
hardlig(hardly), luckig(lucky), flig(fly), saig(say)
bij(by), mij(my), thej(they), spraj(spray)

2. y at Beginnings of Words

> words of Anglo and other Germanic origin
> y -> ge, j (based on historical transitions)

ex.
geard(yard), gesterdaig(yesterday), gellow(yellow)
jouth(youth), jear(year), New Jork(New York)

3. y in Middle of Words

> words of Greek origin
> y -> y (as is, since it's the only case of "y"'s appropriate succession.)

ex. hydrogen, system, psychologie(psychology), analyze

That's the summarie of mij thoughts.
Wishing jou a nice daig!
