How Do You Spell HORSECOLLAR?

The word "horsecollar" is spelled with the phoneme /k/ instead of the expected /c/ due to the historical influence of Middle English. It represents the joining of "horse" and "collar," two Old English words. The spelling with the "k" instead of "c" comes from the Old Norse word "kollr," which means "collar." The "k" spelling overtook the original "c" spelling over time. Despite its unusual spelling, "horsecollar" remains a common term used to refer to the part of a harness that fits around a horse's neck.
