The "T" in often is silent
« on: August 12, 2003, 09:39:37 am »
That's right, children. You definitey DON'T pronounce it. Also, in Xavier (as in St. Francis Xavier, St. Frances Xavier) the X is said like a Z. So, it should be pronounced Zay-vyur. Understood? Okay.

I am telling the truth! My I'm-13-resolution is to tell the truth, and not be cynical and sarcastic and other . . . stuff. :\

OoOoOo, AND it's the WHOLE truth. Not just sorta the truth, but it's true, all of it.

Eye off-ihn wun-dur ihf St. Zay-vyur ayte cheeze and koo-kuh. ;)

See that example sentence? It should be pronounced EXACTLY like I say.

Wooo! I did it . . . Except not very well, and I kind of got off the subject while recording. But, it's all good.
