<<Finally, which rhymes with enough --
Though, through, plough, or dough, or cough?
Hiccough has the sound of cup.
My advice is to give up!!!>>

This verse reminded me of summer meal times when we were growing up.  One
year I remember in particular, we had a German girl staying and grammar was
very much a part of meal times, as well as correct pronunciation.  Because
she could not pronounce words with "th" she always had to carefully
enunciate and would practice where to put her tongue so that it came out as
"th" and not "z".  We also taught her the various pronuncations and words
ending in ough, but could not explain why they were different.

Malvary, where summer is finally creeping in and I might get to use my
newly installed air conditioning one of these days
