Date: Fri, 29 Jan 2010 18:24:43 -0500 On the page ' Heteronymes' : 'Hobbies' / 'Fun with words' / 'Words' / 'Heteronymes' ( cool site, by the way) I noticed an error: the word lather is actually pronounced with a hard 'th' when referring to the tradesmen who instal lath ; and pronounced with a soft 'th' when referring to suds etc. It was likely just an oversight but you had it 'down' the opposite way. again, cool site.

If you go to: http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/lather ...and click on the sound icons for the two "lather" entries, the distinction is pretty clear. Thanks for keeping your eyes peeled, however. I don't doubt there are other errors on my site, for which I'd be grateful for the corrections. Cheers. -- Sam. |
