A few months ago I heard an explanation on the radio that the 'th' for c and z came about because one of the Kings has a lisp and his court tried not the make him sound silly! It's almost believable; after all it is said that Americal English is closer to the original that English English.  |
I heard that about the King, I asked a Spanish teacher from the peninsular and she said this is what they say but nobody seems to know for sure, I don't understand, surely it would be recorded
