Why does Outlook map Ctrl+F to Forward instead of ...
I started living in Germany right after it was adopted, and still cannot get the long vs short vowel history for ß.
They just sound the same to my hears, so I got around it by memorizing the respective use cases.

I tend to still write in the old spelling (I didn't have to take exams in the reformed spelling yet so I never bothered to memorise all the braindeadness) and rely on Word/Outlook to correct me where necessary. That works quite well so far.
