@stupidlittlegenius: Did you know that Mayday isn't an English word at all? The international distress call used by pilots and sailors comes from the French phrase m'aider, meaning "help me". But English didn’t know how to spell it, and Frederick Stanley Mockford thought it was genius, so we got stuck with it! So if you ever have to shout mayday, you are actually just yelling help me in French. Just spelt the English way! #creatorsearchinsights #etymology #funfacts #learnontiktok #mayday
