Question Time

[tomus42]

OK, the labour representative has said nuculer when I think he means nuclear about a hundred times and it's annoying the sheet out of me.

There's no particular question. I just had to vent.

[Bazile]

Did he also say 'A loo me num '  instead of ' Ali minny um ' ?

[Canary42]

Have you seen a psychiatrist about your extreme over-sensitiveness ?

And would it be any easier if the representative was a Tory ?

 

[THECORBYLOON]

There's no, "i" between the, "l" and the, "m" so why pronounce it as, "ali"?

[THECORBYLOON]

I had a listen just now and it sounded more like the way Americans pronunce, "nuclear".

[tomus42]

Yes Corby. That would be umm...nuculer.

[tomus42]

//Have you seen a psychiatrist about your extreme over-sensitiveness ?

No and No.

[THECORBYLOON]

"Yes Corby. That would be umm...nuculer."

The American pronunciation tends to be, "nooclear," with no, "u" following the, "c".

[Ludocruz]

He'd have been better off saying 'UNCLEAR"... as he avoided answering any questions he was asked 😝

[tomus42]

//The American pronunciation tends to be, "nooclear"//

Nope. It nooculer. 

Thanks for correcting my spelling error though.

[tomus42]

That's great. But that wasn't what he was saying.

He was saying 'noocular'.

The problem is not whether one says noo or nyu.

It whether one says clear or cular.

[THECORBYLOON]

To my ear, he was saying it the American way, as in the video but you heard it differently. 

[netherfield]

I'm noo clear what was said

😂

I can't say allure.
