Since we're on the subject of pronunciation, how do you pronounce Kierkegaard's first name?
[/quote]the ø in søren is pronounced like I said, so it's like [b]su[/b]b [b]R[/b] [b]en[/b]doctrinal where the R is a rolling R

[Nihil Obstat]

I can't roll my r's.

Not even Frenchy roll?

[zunshynn]

Scandinavians aren't as snobby as the French about how well you roll your Rs, generally speaking.

Aww..

If it makes you feel better I can't sing the edith piaf r without some water for gurgling.

If you were in western Norway, your R-s would sound something like [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgpyzEd2xUg"]this[/url]( I have very little interest in football, but it was the first person I came up with with that r)

Double-u...tea...aich. That is the craziest language I have ever heard.

What what WHAT? My grandfather has that dialect

Same lady that knocked him down last time. I guess their saying she is mentally ill. We should praise God that the Pope is all right.

So I was watching the news this afternoon. CBS reported that it was the same woman who tackled the pope this time as who tried to tackle him last time.

If we do that, we'll be overrun with big bad wolves.

You just have to roll your front and your r's will follow.

Just remember on getting a good air-stream, and don't focus on fluttering your tongue as much, First practice without making the r sound.



But anyway,any one of advanced age that keeps a schedule as busy as the Holy Father keeps his is unlikely to let something like this stop him.
