It does? How do you figure?
That would just be a miss-spelling of chivalry.
Written English is descriptive - it’s describes an existing sound.
“Chivalry” is a loan word from French, which is why it’s pronounced with the “S” sound, as French itself is influenced by the S/K sound division from centuries(?) earlier.
Your complaint about consistency is because English is the most syncretic language - it arguably has more loanwords than most other languages have words.
Yea, fuck flying anymore.
I did a LOT of flying for work, at one point it was 2 flights a week for the entire year. I’m a well-seasoned flyer, nothing about it bothers me.
But I’ve seen the continual degradation of the treatment of us passengers. For example, less than a week after new regs against keeping people on planes longer than 2 hours, an airline routed a plane to Cheyenne, WY during a storm (rather than use fuel circling the airport) knowing it couldn’t take off from that runway. The plane sat on the tarmac for eight fucking hours before they got busses to them.
Cocksuckers.
