Heheh. Verdict: I am not eloquent. I knew I wouldn't get through that without getting chatty and saying "uhhhhh" a bunch of times, but there you have it.

I'm really liking this glimpse at how you all sound. It's so different from how I hear you in my mind.

Really? People always say they imagine me to have a lighter voice (it's the gay thing, I supposedly have a deep voice compared to my fellow queers, IDK)

I looked up how to say it, so when I say it properly I say newFINlnd. It's still not right, but it's hard to read all those symbols at Wikipedia in the dictionary. :P

All in all, I think Vidcund had the most variation. Everyone seems to say it differently.

It is a lot to say, I'll admit. BUT IT'S NO EXCUSE.

Pshaw. That's silly. I thought it matched up with how you "sound" in writing just perfectly.

That would sound close. A good thing to keep in mind is to say the first part like you're saying Newfin' as if Newf were a verb and you're going Newfing. *snort* Newfin'-LAND. That would sound about right. (Learning this is important, remember. :P)

Yeah, it's a good one for that. That's why I'd like to read something longer. It would give more opportunity to notice details. Maybe I'll do it later.

You're right. As his cult, it's our duty to get it right.
