I heard that Spanish maintains a consistent sound-to-spelling correspondence. However, if the word "rendezvous" is borrowed by Spanish, then how should you spell that word as a native speaker of Spanish? Rendezvous? Or something like "rondeivu"? The problem would be fixed if Spanish calque the word as "rendisted" (rendís + usted)!
Back and questionably smarter than ever, finally learned how to rendezvous with ISS and Mir from KSC. Landing is another matter but I'm....getting there?
