Not actually a shower thought, saw an old document that labeled it air-port. I don’t think I would have ever made the connection.

(I’ve found people can be rude about word breakdowns, but I’m posting it anyway. Be better.)

    The reason people are rude about word breakdowns is they assumed you to be a native English speaker, and these should seem obvious.

    The internet is full of Americans, unfortunately.

      I think it’s the native speakers that don’t break it down. You just take the word as a word because you learned it so young.
