Cage from Edge of Tomorrow. Purely from the number of day resets he goes through. Maybe Phil from Groundhog day is a second place - same reason, just fewer deaths…
For anyone wondering, salmon’s pronounciation comes from the French word . The French word comes from the Latin word salmo. When smarty pants scholars decided on how words would be spelled in the middle ages, they thought salmon should have an L in it since the Latin word does (screw with all those dumb people who don’t know Latin!)
Yeah it turns out a whole bunch of English words are spelled more like a linguistic history lesson than anything approaching a useful system of phonetics. It might as well be pictographic with letters being helpful hints at this point. I wish there could be spelling reform in the anglosphere, but it’s hard enough to get people to agree within any one of the majority English-speaking countries, let alone between them.
In case anyone else who isn't knowledgeable in Latin is curious as to what "salmo" means and why they decided to name a fish after it... Salmo means Salmon.
There’s a bunch of words spelt annoyingly because those bastard scholars decided they’d like to incorporate the historic roots of words, rather than the reality of words, in their spelling.
