Why does the word 'LISP ' have an 'S' in it ?
It's not right !
Men are the same as women.... just inside out !!

Probably for the same reason "Dyslexia" is so difficult to spell. [

To answer your question, "Lisp" is onomatopoetic.
(This is my once-in-a-lifetime chance to use this seven-syllable word. If I had missed this opportunity I would have been
spit
ting mad,
crack
ing up, and really
piss
ed off. I would have
bang
ed my fist on the desk which would have caused my computer to
crash
, my dog to
bark
and my cat to
hiss
.)
