    I know this is a joke but idc. The reason for basically every quirk of pronunciation/spelling in English is borrowed words, of which English has very many. Tamales is an obvious/good example.

      Except it’s not even a borrowed word. It’s still a Spanish word. nope, I was wrong.

        It’s a borrowed word because we don’t have a translation, though. Tamales are tamales. Also we say tamale for singular but it’s tamal in Spanish. It’s a loan word in every way.
