It's a pronunciation spelling, so you know how it was originally pronounced. You should love that sort of thing.

Well, it's not the proper way to spell it. As I said, it's a pronunciation spelling. You pronounce it like that to imitate the uneducated sailor's accent.

The only thing that tells me is that I should NEVER get aboard a sailing ship.
I'd never be able to understand anyone else onboard ^^;

Well, we're talking about the 18th and 19th centuries here. sweatdrop You're unlikely to encounter anyone who talks like that today.

Of course it doesn't help that there are accents today that I can't understand either ^^;
