@waker_upper: Most people have heard the story. A king with a lisp who supposedly influenced the way an entire nation spoke. But when you start looking at the king himself, the story becomes much bigger than a speech impediment. #habsburg #hiddenhistory #spanishroyals #historymystery #spanishhistory

There was a movie made in the 90s called. I think it was called “the kings speech” and it was really good historically accurate you should watch it.

Spain here…. The “Spanish lisp” wasn’t caused by King Charles II That’s a popular myth. The /θ/ sound (as in cielo or zapato in much of Spain) developed gradually during the 15th and 16th centuries and was already well established before Charles II was born in 1661. It’s a historical sound change, not a speech impediment copied from a king. You’re right about Charles II’s health issues being linked to generations of royal inbreeding but not about the origin of the pronunciation.
