99.242.219.94: getting it right

2009-09-19T16:24:07Z

getting it right

New page

[[Mr. Tulip]]'s favourite syllable. This conveys a lot of very specific meaning in one small space, as in the discussion of an antique virginal:

''So called because it was an instrument for –ing young ladies!''<BR>
''My word, was it? I thought it was just a sort of early piano!''

It also has its uses in polite discourse when one does not want to have to ''completely'' spell it out.
