So instead of the 2015 Hoverboard… We have Hover Brooms now? Or am I missing something. ’cause I recall something about the importance of being able to pilot a Broom.
Oxford > Websters save when they add stupid yea like Quidditch into it. I guess it is a College right so I guess it reasonable to assume the smoke weird stuff there too.
Having grown up in the DelMarVa region of the US. It was Aunts (plural), or Aunt (single). Though I have heard others describe such family as ants before, My guess its some bastardization of the English language like Color over Colour, or Aluminum (US - incorrect), vs. Aluminium (UK - correct) spelling, for example.
NO THEY DO NOT!
Aunt has a U in it and it is not silent.
the Proper Pronunciation is more like ‘ahnt’
People ( and ponies for that matter) Do not give birth to insects…
It is essential for witchws, though.
Nagh the are all to varying degrees quite nutzy.

Apparently it’s an actual sport now, so…
By that metric, any misspelling that isn’t so bad to be unrecognizable to the original word is also a valid word.
A word recognized by Webster, no. Nonetheless, bogus is a word too. ;3
On the grounds that people use it and understand it, “ain’t” is a word.
The same way “ain’t” ain’t a word, but people still use it. Americans and British can pronounce any words however the hell they want. :3
Who created a dialect has zero bearing on whether it’s “correct” or not.
Anyone with any understanding of language would know that American English is not “incorrect” any more than British English is incorrect.
The official, American English (which is closer to Canada’s version of English than Britain’s) pronunciation has the u completely silent.

In the dialect that MLP uses, it does.
Not in all dialects of English!
Umm, she did. Ant and Aunt have the same pronunciation.
It’s the smile.
