You really can't blame the English for that stupidity. Female derives from Latin, and Tamale is a Spanish word... Spanish also having derived from Latin.

Blame the Spanish... not the English!
It's elementary, my dear Watson. Note the second letter of each word. Tamale... Female. "A" is a different letter, and pronounced differently than "E".

I think he was talking about the last 5 letters of the 2 words - - "males"

I have friends that moved to California from Brazil. Both have good English. Some things throw them though, like there, their, they're.
Brazil speaks either Spanish or Portugese. Those are of the Romanic language family, together with Italian and French. English, Dutch, German, Norwegian, Swedish and Danish are all of the Germanic language family, so as a Dutchman, misspelled English by Americans doesnt throw me off as easily.. 😉🤣👌

We're not misspelling, we just streamlined for efficiency!

colour -> color
aluminium -> aluminum
bonnet -> hood
cheque -> check
dialogue -> dialog

You get the idea. For as much as the English supposedly hate the French, they certainly carry a lot of their silly flourishes around in their language.

Train hits Army tank on trailer.



There are many videos of similar situations, with a low trailer stuck on raised tracks, I would think drivers would be more aware. How many more were not photographed?
