If U always follows Q, then why do we need to put it there?

Theres no word with q in it without it being followed the letter u, so what is the point in putting it in?. sure we could drop the u!.

There are some now, with computer language, and foreign words, but you don’t have to put it there!, just turn Your spelling test in, and explain your D, to your Folks!.

Actually, why use 2 letters, like in letters, why not one, or actually, why two Ls, Mississippi, would be a lot easier writing it with single letters, and think that how many Bad spellers, would go from a D, to a C-. good question even if I made some fun in the beginning!.

ThanQ, for the rose.

The whole point of there being a U after Q is because of the pronounciation of the word…

According to the dictionary it looks like it might have something to do with the word roots being Latin.

In the English language, “Q” is married to “U,” but not so when using it to denote Arabic, Chinese, etc.
