there is an actual rule in english that applies to this
if the letter A is followed by a consonant and then E, it is pronounced "ey"
eg: lame, tape, negate

Basically the rules in English comes down to "what sounds right". I remember when my english teachers would teach us about the right way to go about grammar, and then they'd go "BUT WAIT THERE'S AN EXCEPTION"

When you see 'wafer' you think 'water' with an 'f'. Why is it pronounced 'wayfer'?
