Yes, and I should clarify that I never intended "cock-socket" to be pronounced that way - I just put it in because I liked the sound of it.

Interesting idea. How's this for a hypothesis: the most obscene words in any language will be onomatopoeia for the sound that culture makes while having sex.

... no, that assumes the link between sex and obscenity.

H2: in most languages, sex-related vocabulary will be onomatopoeia for the sounds that culture makes while having sex.

This is your go-to example of typical sexual behaviour? ;)

Still, in my head it connected with learning in grade six to spell cemetery with the mnemonic "he screamed EEE as he ran through the cEmEtEry".

I'm glad there aren't three Es in "delivery".

Slightly off topic; I learned to spell many words by pronouncing them the way they were spelled rather than the way they sounded. Sometimes the two coalesced.
Bee-ee-ay-you-tiful for example.

However carr-ack-ter, sep-arr-ate and cal-ann-derr were ones I used to highlight the part of the spelling I was likely to get wrong. I don't really say them like that. But learning them that way helped me.

Like learning my Grandparents' telephone number by the sound and rhythm of the way it was said:
Oh One Two-Six-One, Nine-Double-Two-Three.
And that's not classified information any more, as any London Dwellar can tell you. ("01 if you're outside London"?)
