and something I notice about English
Except for the emphasized syllabal and any final vowel, the the vowel sounds are rather de-emphasized (at least to my ears). ("Long vowels" may be exceptions.)
Thus, you could have emphusized, emphisized, emphosized, emphusized, etc., and most people would pronounce them the same under *normal* speach. Thus, perhaps we should have a generic vowel:
pr*nounced
emph*sized
moos*l*ni.....well, okay, moos*lini.
Anybody with me to overhaul English? I like to FIX stupid things instead of live with them. Well, except for Windows :-)
