Seriously, you had to ask?
I admit.
I have no earthly idea how to pronounce this word.
What and Hinge .

So I'm guessing Whinge is Britspeak for Whine?
"Whinge" isn't just a spelling variant of "whine." "Whinge" and "whine" are actually entirely different words with separate histories. "Whine" traces to an Old English verb, "hwinan," which means "to make a humming or whirring sound." When "hwinan" became "whinen" in Middle English, it meant "to wail distressfully"; "whine" didn't acquire its "complain" sense until the 16th century. "Whinge," on the other hand, comes from a different Old English verb, "hwinsian," which means "to wail or moan discontentedly." "Whinge" retains that original sense today, though nowadays it puts less emphasis on the sound of the complaining and more on the discontentment behind the complaint.
like why isn't there an apple flavored milkshake?
Oh my god. Why ISN'T there an apple flavored milkshake?
Or a cider milkshake. Mmm. That'd be so yummy.
