Fwiw we saw the stage musical in London this past summer & nearly the entire cast used English accents (except Oz, who was vaguely transatlantic). I think sometimes the choices are partly a function of the actor's toolbox

Watching both soccer and hockey today and I cannot stress this enough, just use one camera please. No closeups or cuts during live play. Please.

Bonjour hello, a demain

They contacted you?? Say yes! Trivia is 1/3 of the game

Also, Greek π was adapted from a Phoenician glyph for /p/ which, prior to acrophonia, was a logogram for 'mouth' (i.e. piehole apparently)

I read once that the mathematical use of π originally was in reference to circumference (perimeter, hence Greek P), not the ratio of circumference to diameter, so the shift of the symbol's interpretation to how we use it now is an example of mathematical metonymy

My pie recipe uses h₁, h₂, and h₃. You can't taste them but you know they were there at some point

No I mean a system where TRAP is [æ] before nasals but [a] (in the IPA sense) otherwise

No it's not been reversed it's [a] otherwise

[æ] is alive and well as the prenasal allophone of TRAP in 3rd Dialect vowel systems 🙂

Yes, Dec through early Feb

2 twist 2 turious

In 2021 when we taught online I started each lecture with a song selection from youtube. On Feb 2 that year I used I Got You Babe. Played it again the next class, Feb 4. Sadly, no laughs or any other kind of reactions

In the example you give, I assume you've used allcaps to indicate phrasal stress occurring earlier than the final word (which ofc happens if discourse context motivates it)

I'd call it focus stress. Unless context demands otherwise, primary phrasal stress tends to occur on the primary stressed syllable of the final word. Focus = primary phrasal stress occurring somewhere other than canonical position

We also have an endearing trait in which no two big lecture halls have the same room number, so 1004, 1006, 1179, 1560, 1009 are all the largest halls in their respective buildings (and that's an incomplete list too)

U of Ottawa, U of Arizona, UCSB are all Bldg-Rm. I've heard the opposite at UCSB but the directory system definitely uses bldg first

same prompt but asking chat to treat the question like a Jeopardy clue; chat gives same response but in the form of a question

and for good measure

Prompt asks ChatGPT a trivia question, ChatGPT gets it very wrong

I'm not usually a "look what shite I got the AI to produce" kind of guy anymore, but behold:

I would not have noticed if you had not pointed it out!

Do you not know about goalies?

wow, that's so awesome, thank you for locating this and sharing it! I stand corrected, clearly
