Talk:Index of phonetics articles

message: say, aren't all of the 'ejective' phone articles actually descriptions of 'voiced ingressive' phones?  I thought ejectives were written as C + apostrophe, eg p', t', k'... ?? user:pgdudda
: Hi.  No, ejectives use a glottalic egressive airstream mechanism.  The larynx with closed glottis is pushed upward by the throat muscles compressing the air the oral cavity.  So, the air is pushed outward (i.e., egressive).  You can check this in a mirror & with a hand in front of your mouth (in English, emphasized sentence/utterance-final words that end in a voiceless stop, esp. /k/, are pronounced as ejective stops, as in ’leak' /lik/.)  I think it may be impossible to push air out with partially open vocal folds (i.e., voiced).  (Ladefoged says, "unlikely".)  Even if it is possible, it is definitely not common for ejectives to be voiced.  (Of the few languages that are said to have them, Ladefoged says they are misnamed.)
: Glottalic ingressive sounds are implosives.  They may be voiced or voiceless, but voiceless implosives are hard to produce & are rather rare (it was thought impossible before, but there are voiceless implosives in Owerri Igbo, Uzere, Lendu, and Mayan languages).  As you might have guessed in these sounds the larynx is lowered, causing a decrease in air pressure & sucking air inwards.
: Cheers!

replies: text: Oh, then the articles must've been fixed since the last time I looked.  Because they were describing voiced ingressives instead of ejectives (which are, almost by definition, voiceless).  Thanks!  pgdudda 20:08, 29 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Talk:94th United States Congress

message: The Vietnam page said the 94th Congress "voted for a total cut off of all aid to South Vietnam to take effect at the beginning of the 1975-76 financial year (July 1, 1975)."  After putting this in and I began reading - actually, this vote never took place.  South Vietnam was still receiving money when it fell in April of 1975 and the vote regarding the 1975-1976 fiscal year starting July 1st, 1975 had yet to take place.  So it would be incorrect to say Congress voted for a total cut off of all aid to South Vietnam.  South Vietnam fell before the vote could take place.  Ruy Lopez 09:17, 26 May 2004 (UTC)

Talk:Centrul Civic

message: Much of the following, mostly my writing, was dropped in a recent edit as being POV. I suppose I can't really argue the issue, but I hope no one minds my preserving this on the talk page.
:"The facelessness and placelessness of the Centru Civic is due not only to its architectural uniformity, but also to having been designed in accord with Ceauşescu's general hostility to commerce. Few spaces were left for retail business of any sort, leaving the Centru Civic nearly devoid of the small shops and restaurants found in the areas immediately to its north. The few street-facing business spaces in the Centru Civic retain a cold, communist-era look.
:"As one goes east, the eerie bleakness of the western part of the Centru Civic gives way to the outright devastation of the eastern portion, known to Bucharesteans as "Hiroshima". Construction cranes, disused and rusting since Ceauşescu was overthrown, hover over the concrete hulks of half-completed buildings whose vacant windows, in turn, stare out onto pits of rubble, where historic buildings (including much of the city's historic Jewish quarter) once stood; street dogs roam the neighborhood from which their one-time masters are long departed.
:"Although the destruction of historic Bucharest for the Centru Civic was extensive, it was not total. Nearby Lipscani remains to give some of the flavor of what was lost, and some older buildings survive even in small pockets within the general area of the Centru Civic itself. Many churches, such as the Sf. Nicolai-Mihai Vodă Church, were moved rather than demolished, and the nearby Antim Monastery remains largely intact, although minus its eastern wing. Immediately adjacent to the Centru Civic, just off of Unirii Square, is the Metropolitan Hill (Dealul Metropoliei) with the Patriarchal Cathedral and Palace, seat of patriarch of the Romanian Orthodox Church."

"Mr. Popeil": "It's not about Ron Popeil, the founder of Ronco, but about his dad, the guy who invented the Vegematic and the Pocket Fisherman. He did pitches for them on TV before Ronco was started. Mr. Popeil was a big facet of American pop culture; he started the whole genre of marketing these gimmicky gadgets on TV. Around the time I was writing the song, I came across a magazine article about me, and right next to it I saw a story about Mr. Popeil's daughter, Lisa Popeil, who was a classically trained singer who had worked with Frank Zappa. I thought it would be great if we could get her to sing on the track, and she agreed to do it. It was very odd, though, to be in the studio directing Lisa how to sing her own name!"
