Ackchooly "Standardised" English spelling didn't come into being until the late 17th Century when names in particular started to be spelled in a logical and standard way. This grew during the 18th Century and finally settled into the present form during the 19th Century with the spread of compulsory schooling of children.

And then mobile phones fecked it all up!  Banghead

One of the older codgers in the village was a radio operator when it was all Morse code, and he told me almost all the 'text speak' abbreviations are the same as they used back then.

As for Growler spelling correctly, there is no 'f' in 'chance'.
