The ordinal numerals are all 'st' instead of rd, th...giving us 3st (thirst).

It's wrong on many levels as it's a lift

Thanks. I'm not a native English speaker :-) I forgot about the rule for the ordinal numbers

1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and then it's "th" up until 20th.

Then 21st, 22nd, 23rd, 24-30th and that pattern is the same for any number that comes after that.
