Liaden Pronunciation Poll

So, I'm back on the couch today because I overstrained the ankle yesterday (which no one could have predicted, right?), typing on The Leewit, with Mozart in his window hammock, keeping a Very Sharp Eye Out for pirates, UPS trucks, Quiet and/or Louder, and That Uppity Squirrel. In between naps.

Anyway, we haven't forgotten the Liaden Pronunciation Guide project, but we need some help in deciding on format.

This? Is your cue.

[Poll #1816147]

So I Say

I actually kinda liked option 2 but chose neither.

Why?

I started out with phonetics in first grade 60 years ago.

We then moved to a school system that didn't teach phonics.

I've been messing up my English pronunciation ever since.

I can usually tell when I've done it.

The person I'm speaking with eyes get rather glazed.

They also usually say "What?"

Why should Liaden be any different?
