...pronounce the word "miracle" correctly? I can't think of a single song that I have ever heard (including the one I just heard that brought it to mind) where the singer doesn't sing "mi-rick-le". "No man but a blockhead ever wrote except for money." Samuel Johnson. | ||

How do you pronounce it? | |||

The right way.  There is no letter I in the middle. The sound is a schwa"No man but a blockhead ever wrote except for money." Samuel Johnson. | |||

It seems that I originally posted about this on 12 September 2002. I apologise for the repetition.  "No man but a blockhead ever wrote except for money." Samuel Johnson. | |||

And what did I say? Because I definitely pronounce it the "wrong" way then. Remember our ongoing discussion of fire? Same thing. | |||

You should become a professional singer.  Remember them? I've just finished reading them again. "No man but a blockhead ever wrote except for money." Samuel Johnson. | |||

I remember asking you to pronounce "fire" when I first met you - it sounded like 2 syllables to me... | |||
