The Talk2 List Possibly an Eloquence mispronounce

2007-08-19 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi. Just got a message from someone referring to a Bada. I'm reasonably sure Eloquence was being used. Not having access to the one used in JFW, I can't say if bada and beta sound the same or if this guy was just an idiot. Brandon Did you miss a message? Well, don't. http://www.mail-arch

Twas all a long story. One I will have to tell you and the curious about in length. In stead of listening to tas yesterday, I was climbing down a very big rock formation that tried to be a latter at the same time because several of my friends thought it'd be fun to swim, without going to a publi

blimy! even eloquence isn't that bad. It says "beeta" for "beta". Mind you I use the Brittish version, so I don't know what the American one does. Ok, I've just checked, and it does pronounce "beta" differently but it definitely doesn't say "bada". I'd guess it's more a case of the person s

Ya know, I used to absolutely hate it in the older versions, totally refused ever to use it, then I got a talx phone, that just happened to have a Britttish (or whatever it's meant to be) accent, and I got so used to it, that now the American one, just grates on me. Granted it is much more acc

From a book that I'm currently reading, comes the following: I think it makes this problem easier to understand. We went in and found a young guy in new BDUs behind the counter. He was a cheerful corn-fed country boy. He looked like he was working in his dad's hardware store, and he looked
