It becomes a bit of an endearing trademark, really. In fact, the orators we value highest, even on stage and screen, seem to have their own specialness about them (Sean Connery comes to mind). Wow, what a boring world if we were to limit ourselves to being "normal" - and by someone else's standards. (For goodness sake, it seems a third of those who live where I do say Warshington! They LIVE here, and somehow found an extra 'R' in the name of the state. Perhaps it's to make up for the lack of 'Rs' in Maine?) Thanks, Leesa, for this edition of "Languange Can Be Fun." ;-) --Dave Seems to me that Oprah, Rush, Beck and just about every other super success has particular or peculiar ways of pronouncing certain words.

I remember doing that recording. The magazine gave me a deadline and I waited until the 11th hour to record it before heading off to bed. My tongue must've been tired. But still, as I listen to recordings that I've done after getting that email in my post above, it's still quite difficult for me to enunciate that last "T" in podcast.

Furthermore, you slow down your rhythm of speech for clarity, something that I'll have to learn. True though, it may be a Canadian thing (wink) What a contrast since I particularly remarked to myself that you enunciate when speaking when I spoke to you the other day.
