I want to be upfront with this. There will be no beating around the bush. I want to see the digraph ‘ck’ banned from the English language and replaced by either a single ‘c’ or a ‘k’ or in a couple of instances, an enforced ‘x’.

The combination ‘ck’ has led to some rather unhelpful words like ‘Nantucket’ (you know, it’s in the Limerick) or ‘schmuck’ and even that fashion brand ’fcuk’.
