Quite true. If you insist on spelling the word incorrectly, odds are you'll pronounce it incorrectly.

[Stephen Thomas]

Hey, Stephen... Aluminum has an "i"...how come yours has TWO ''i's''??? (AlumInIum)

Because I am spelling it in the right way, beautiful lady.

And you are spelling it in the totally wrong American way.

[Celesta]

Yep, it's aluminium and aluminum.

I knew a girl in high school who always confused ammonia with pneumonia.

Hi Stephen that must be the Brit pronunciation, like
"Al-loo-MIN-I-um" for Aluminum.

That's nothing to do with pronounciation, Archaic

It's Al-yoo-min-ee-om

Not Al-you-minn-um

There's an 'i' in the word here believe it or not

That's just how the woodens say it

Back to the labratory

[Nurse Sarah]

I say: duo (the word for two) then deen -um!

Got me thinking though!

S x

[Archaic]

At the moment I back whichever miserable pronunciation I use with "You know, the L-shaped pipe under the Stomach."

Then people say, "Oh, I know what you mean!"



Best regards, Archaic

Hey guys, I keep meaning to ask this:
What is the proper pronunciation of 'Duodenum'?

I'd plunk for doo-a -deen- em

[Archaic]

Pronunciation of 'Duodenum' ??

Hey guys, I keep meaning to ask this:
What is the proper pronunciation of 'Duodenum'?

That's where my stomach problem was. Everyone pronounces it differently and no matter which version i use someone corrects me!

So is it "doo-AH-de-num" or " dooUh--DEN-um "?? Both? Neither?

Your help is most appreciated. I want to talk good.

Thanks, Archaic

Yes I definently get benefits from it. I've been taking it for three years. I have much more energy. If I miss it for a few days I start to feel really tired and sluggish.

Doesn't really do anything for abs though

[Archaic]

Hi Belinda, thank you for the link.

Mind if I ask what it tastes like?
(Not that taste matters if it's good for me... gag, gag... )

Do you feel that you get some real benefit from it? -Ripped Abs??-

Thanks and best regards, Archaic

Thanks Sarah, Madam Red and Carol.

Carol I'm so glad that your tests were ok too, we've both been lucky. It's "Count your blessings" time, isn't it?
Thanks so much for the good wishes & prayers, it's very kind of you. I'm feeling a lot better already, the hospital had me on a 24 hr/day iv fluids and that in itself made a big difference, I hadn't realized that I was getting dehydrated because I couldn't eat.

I'm doing pretty well so far, but the first thing my friends say when they see me is still "You're too skinny!" -Man, I never thought I'd have that problem!

I hope the fancy protein-shakes give me not just calories but 'Ripped Abs' like in their advertising...
Reading the label I get the impression it's a workout in a milkshake.

Very glad to hear from you, take care.

Best regards, Archaic
