minus-squareMolten_Moron@lemmings.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·6 个月前Excellent point, but “would’ve”, “could’ve”, and “should’ve” sound like “would of”, “could of”, and “should of”. So the problem doesn’t lie solely in enounciation.

The transition from ‘o’ to ‘f’ starts hard with a ‘v’ but finishes with a soft ‘f’.
