So I fully get that you don’t like it, but are you seriously suggesting that you can’t understand intent when someone says, “pronounciation”?? If so, how obtuse. Your original post implies otherwise.

Many words from Native American languages were incorporated into English or French or “whatever”. Colonised speakers continue to mix vocab, syntax and grammar. Modem birds contain no dodo, bro.

31.10.2025 13:08 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0It simply doesn’t matter because whether someone says “pro-nun-ciation” or “pro-noun-ciation”, you and I both know precisely what they are communicating. There is no ambiguity. No confusion. Neither sound like any other word, in or out of context. It does not matter.

Many people say that is impossible.
But in the late 1940's and all through the 1950's they built more than 500,000 Council Houses in most years.
How?
Because there were no private developers, the Government did it.
