May 4th

So all day it has been…

May the 4th be with you.  (https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:May_the_4th_be_with_you_(Star_Wars_Day).svg)

For the uninitiated, it is a silly take using the date, May 4, on a famous saying by the Jedi Order of Star Wars, May the Force Be with You.

As I was washing my hands today, I realized a strange fact…

I love language, the sound of languages, and how people in different parts of the world speak. Even a bit deeper, I like the study of the placement of the tongue when speaking.

My point?

“May the 4th be with you” is a lisp (a speech defect where the “s” sound is pronounced as “th” in thick or  the “z” is pronounced as the “th” in this.)

“May the forth be with you”
“May the force be with you”

So, I’m sticking to the original sound.

(Yes, I went there)
