When we are taught to read the letters
will sometimes give us problems. Vowels
don’t always make the same sound. The pronunciation
of “a’ sounds the same in words like “apple” and “cat”
but differs when saying words like: “clay” or “talk”. What’s even more confusing is seeing the
letter “a” and writing
it in a different way.
I don’t remember questioning that as a
child, but I do as an adult. With so many fonts, the appearance of letters
might appear differently from the other.
For example this font which I am currently using versus
what comes up automatically in my computer.
I like this font so much better.
The “a” looks like what I’ve been taught to write, not this foreign
letter that has an extra hook on top.
Who changed the font? Who decided that we would learn to read “a” but write “a”?
And why have our minds accepted both? Perhaps it’s designed to teach us about
diversity. If we can accept the
differences among letters, why would we not do the same for people?
