Perhaps a word historian can answer that for me. Is it because they have different etymologies?
"Flood" rhymes with "Thud", “Mud”, “Crud” and “Dud”, which are all words that I associate with a “Flood”.“Dud” would, of course, be in reference to non-“bud” who was in charge of both of the “Floods”.…oh, go chew your “Cud”.
I think it's just because English likes being difficult.
English makes so little sense to me sometimes.
