Ocean11 0 Posted March 27, 2003 Share Posted March 27, 2003 In my days as a student of linguistics, I always enjoyed a bit of labio-dental fricative. My then girlfriend who was a speech therapist liked a bit of that too. I hate the word 'exclaim' as I can never read it right the first time. A godawful Star Wars book that my son likes me to read has people exclaiming all the time. Link to post Share on other sites
