Neighbours of ours are Swiss and their son has been called up for national service.
I wasn't aware but it's still a thing in Switzerland for young men.
I feel a bit sorry for him as he's been through school here in Australia and it's a huge thing for the lad.
He looked a bit apprehensive about it when I asked him about it.
Off he goes for 2 years.

Two years of this?...should make a man of him...

They may come out as mature adults ( well some of them!)

Simply to adhere to pronunciation rules when the word is shortened. Otherwise you'd have frig or frige which wouldn't be pronounced as fridge.

Why isn’t refrigerator pronounced refriggerator rather than refridgerator.
