Fay, you're a miracle worker, baby. Hi, Sophie... Hi, Helena. Nice to meet y'all. I used to not understand the long lurk, but it took me five years to delurk on dkos myself. Because they talk too much and have in-jokes I didn't understand. Isn't that a black fly in my chardonnay?
Delurking 1: Because we don't always check our e-mail.
Hello, Sophie and Hellena and -t (is the dash silent or voiced, Daniel and I have argued calmly asserted differing opinions on the topic).
Oh, Fay, that was beautiful. Surely the Bard himself would delurk for that, if only he could.
I don't pronounce the dash. I don't mind if anyone else does, but I'm curious as to how one would.
That was wondrous, Fay.
Sophie Max! Hi! Happy late Turkey Day!
I'm curious as to how one would.
"Dash Tee"
Oooh, right. Happy Thanksgiving, Canadians.
I'm curious as to how one would.
...a pause I can only hear in my head, sorta like a click in those african languages, except silent, then the t? As I try to explain it, I realize my chin kind of nods, when I do it. Apparently to emphasize the silence. :)
Oh, I like that. That has to be correct.
I'm sorry. Figuring out how to pronounce your board name was too hard. I just use your name.
Well, if you're going to use my actual name you have, like, mystical powers over me so of course I can't object to however you want to pronounce it.
