This is an actual problem for people of course. I remember ages ago a dictionary came out that first showed the word phonetically so that people could find it. I haven’t seen that kind of dictionary on book shelves tho. I guess it didn’t sell well.

Ah the dictionary! I used to have a portable one I ordered from school in those scholastic book magazines you could buy stuff in like Calvin & Hobbes books!

I hated that. How am I supposed to look something up if I don’t know how to spell it. I feel ya Charlie.

My objection to that piece of conventional advice was the same as Charlie’s when I was a child.
