How do you abbreviate 'breakfast'? I've seen cafes offer a 'big breaky' which I read as break-y. Others do 'Brekkie' which I seem fine with. And one place I saw does 'Breakki' which annoys me to no end for some reason.

Brekkie. Using a y instead of ie just rubs wrong (like ozzy instead of aussie)

[โ€“] mysticgreg@aussie.zone 6 points 6 months ago

And NEVER Breakki. That's just wrong.

As in Achy Breaky Heart? If so, then thou shalt be cast into the outer darkness and forced to listen to crap 80s and 90s pop sleaze until you reform your way of life, and (possibly) accept Jesus into your heart. I'm not fussed about the last bit. If it happens, it happens.
