That's not Received Pronunciation. If I were dictator, we would beat people to force them to quit. Tom Send a noteboard - 13/07/2012 09:40:16 PM
It sounds like Cockney or London lower class speech - the way Sascha Baron Cohen talks when he is Ali G comes to mind. It's decidedly NOT Received Pronunciation, and it's not correct according to American pronunciation, either. Yod coalescence, dark Ls and a whole host of other defective speech patterns must be removed from the language as quickly as possible.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!

So no "tyune" for "tune"? Larry - 13/07/2012 10:15:05 PM 490 Views
At least no "chune" for "tune" Tom - 13/07/2012 11:42:12 PM 412 Views
