Hello, and welcome to our little corner of the internet—English Enigmas!

Born out of love for the fascinating quirks of the English language, this blog began as a place to ponder and explore its many oddities. Like many of you, we've been intrigued by the complexities and curiosities that define English - from the silent 'k' in 'knight' to countless synonyms and puzzling plurals. These bewitching features prompted questions - Why? How? Thus, English Enigmas was born.
