So you don't say it like "Ace of Basil"? *NM* Tom - 20/05/2010 04:33:10 PM 249 Views
Heh. It's more like, Razzle, dazzle BASIL! *NM* Avendesora - 21/05/2010 02:32:58 AM 276 Views
You say "basil" like Basil Exposition from Austin Powers? *NM* TaskmasterJack - 20/05/2010 09:51:16 PM 257 Views
YES! nossy - 21/05/2010 02:52:05 AM 605 Views
American English contains a lot more mistakes than that. Tom - 20/05/2010 03:58:42 PM 583 Views
Oh, and for the record: the use of "table" as a verb in politics still confuses me for about 5 sec. Tom - 20/05/2010 04:38:35 PM 624 Views
Nice one, though I've been guilty of that on occasion. *NM* Legolas - 20/05/2010 10:27:23 PM 277 Views

Subjunctive, reflective pronouns, things like that Larry - 20/05/2010 11:26:09 PM 567 Views
His main two points had nothing to do with all that, though... Legolas - 20/05/2010 11:39:28 PM 674 Views
I know. I just merely said I disliked the accent and that the divergent dialects were just that Larry - 20/05/2010 11:59:25 PM 600 Views
How does that apply at all? Camilla - 20/05/2010 11:43:49 PM 571 Views
Different rules for different dialects Larry - 21/05/2010 12:03:31 AM 700 Views
.... dialects? Camilla - 21/05/2010 12:06:03 AM 657 Views
Yes, dialects Larry - 21/05/2010 12:20:09 AM 656 Views

But it isn't inconsistent Larry - 21/05/2010 01:14:32 AM 543 Views

It's not his accent, it's his voice. *NM* Rebekah - 21/05/2010 12:26:18 AM 246 Views
It's both Larry - 21/05/2010 12:54:04 AM 616 Views
