Haha yeah I am really tired so I didn't read it all the way through. What is your prognosis, then?

Oh, just saw your edit, you got me confused there for a while :p
Quite what I thought... though 6 surprised me. |
How come? |

Hold on, Sushi. You just woke up, right? Give me a few minutes so I can finish this chapter I'm supposed to have finished already and I'll ask you some questions too.

Probably what you already knew: You're stuck between the Midlands and the South :p |

Absolutely no hurry, either :) |

Oops, my bad. See this red area below Kentucky?
These people don't pronounce the "r" in "heart"... I thought it went all the way until Kentucky. |

Yo, Sushi!
1) Do salary and celery sound the same?
2) "Bad". "Lad". Do they rhyme?
3) Does "hill" sound like "hiw"?
4) "Chance" and "ants" sort of rhyme, right?
5) "Grasp" sounds like "grarsp", but there's no way in hell "castle" sounds like "carstle"! True or false?
6) Please record the following sentences: "Hey Lira, please answer the phone, you have an incoming phone call. Come on, mate, pick me up, lol!" or something similar. I need a new ringtone :D
7) "Ale" begins with the same vowel as "at". Right or wrong? |

Nope, all three sound exactly the same, any variation I can hear comes from how fast I chose to say the words, but I tend to say all them at the same speed in normal speech.
What do you do when the dew is due.
What due you due when the do is dew.
What dew you dew when the due is do.
Sounds exactly the same for all three. :p |

In her speech, there's a "y" sound between the "d" and the "oo" in "due". I'm not sure about the difference between "dew" and "do", though. Perhaps "dew" is more like "deeew"?
(To me "due", "Jew", and "dew" all sound the same... and I imagine they sound the same to Stu too...) |

| Sorry, I'm having technical issues. Shouldn't be long :p |

| That's cool. I'm off to bed now actually, so if I take to long to reply, that's because Morpheus knocked me out. |
