Qomolangma

 https://www.facebook.com/LearnChineseWithVica/videos/the-pronunciation-of-the-mount-qomolangma/316200436107056/


A woman starts out,

The New measured "hat" for Mount (etc)
So, I'm inclined to distrust (mistrust? not believe) her.
A guy took the trouble to make a video and he pronounces the "Q" like a "k".

Hellfire and heaps of sulphur be upon the a-hole choosing the letter "Q" for the english phonetic pronunciation of Chinese.
But I suppose I will have to find a dusty pronunciation key, many unreadable characters just to look esoteric. (No not me, the pronunciation key! O, why do I bother)

"Breathier," riiiight.
(sh)
AI mentions "Not the kw sound of english 'q' " which is plain wrong anyway.
In english, Q is married to U and they do sound like "kw" but it's the U!!
(My forehead vein is bulging)

ok FINE!
Let's go look up "Qing" (no "u") to see what happens.
Hanging with the homies, it's "K"
but asking directions as a tourist (in china? O geez
it's "CH"
I was only going to ask,
why "China"
not 
Qina
But then they changed it, so nevermind

"Jong-gwo" not pretentious enough for you?
DO YOU GET PAID BY THE LETTER???
nvm
(ommmmmmm, ommmmmmm)




BTW "Real ID" aint shit to "Ice", they'll insist it's fake. (Link needed)
(Link)

Voter Intimidation hasn't happened yet. 
I don't have to be a psychic prognosticator to predict that it will.





I've got a normal (not "real") ID and I worried it might matter but it won't.
My birth Certificate looks all raggedy, I'm "Bob" (not "Robert") so basically,
forget I said anything.
Where is "UAE"??
