Think that's crazy! Have you seen some of the new, so-called replacement words, that leave out "man/men" out of it? And there are many others that probably wouldn't pass the sniff test here, so I won't mention them. Think it still ok to say pronoun here, no?

I personally am sticking with the "old crazy", and for those that aren't !!

@Foxxee  funny!  So many words could be on this sort of list!  english is complicated!

I don't understand the zoey, zoe and the joey, joe.  Aren't they they pronouced the same?  what am I missing?

@moonandthestars 

Zoey and Zoe are pronounced the same.  The "e" on the end of Zoe is pronounced as a long "e."

Joey and Joe are not pronounced the same.  The "e" on the end of Joe is silent.

@Foxxee yes, thanks.  Until today I didn't know that zoe had 2 syllables.  "you learn something new every day!"
