So, why is it that the word canoe is pronounced: KA - KNEW (phonetically...)?! Why isn't it pronounced KNOW? or NO?
Words like mistletoe and aloe, doe, toe, oboe, woe,....you get the idea...sound like NO?!
But wait! Then there's words like shoe, horseshoe, snowshoe....!!! Why and HOW is there a difference in pronunciation?
Just curious.
