Why is lazy spelled incorrectly in the English language?

[venk]

It is pronounced LAY - Z but we Spell it LA - ZY. LA-Zy sounds more like La, "as in a note that follows so" and ZY which rhymes with KY. The etymology of the wow LAY -Z makes more sense. When you do not feel like doing a task, you "LAY" down and catch some "Z's", I petition that dictionary change the English language to reflect the proper spelling of the word, LAY - Z.

Forget that!

Why does bi-monthly mean both twice a month and every two months?

 

[bunker]

I would pronounce it "lays" the way you want it spelled.

 

[BW86]

hmmm?😕

 

[Injury]

It is that way because you suck at pronunciation.

 

[sciencewhiz]

Because we're too lazy to fix it

 

[Rallispec]

you sir, are crazy. your mind has gone hazy.

 

[Bootprint]

Because Z = Zed in the real world, so the rest of the world would be saying La-Zed.

The Y tells us to pronoun both the A and the Z long.
