Letter f disappearing

Um, does anyone know why the word ‘figurative’ appears as ‘igurative’ in my last post? WordPress is now forcing me to contemplate different word choice, which hurts the writing. Should I take my blog elsewhere? What’s the issue?

It seems that there are a few community members who are having this problem https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/missing-a-few-fs?replies=12#post-2545544
Changing theme and/or font seems to have solved the issue. If you have any further question about this, please post in that thread as it has been marked for Staff assistance.

A glitch with liguatures (like fl and fi) was introduced in the Merriweather font a few days ago. According to the font’s developer, a fix will be pushed through to Google Fonts today (Jan. 25) in the morning, Pacific time:
https://github.com/EbenSorkin/Merriweather/issues/16
Temporary workarounds include:
1. Add the following custom CSS, if you have access to the upgrade:
html { -webkit-font-variant-ligatures: none; -moz-font-variant-ligatures: none; font-variant-ligatures: none; }OR,
2. In your Customizer’s Fonts panel, choose another font.
