hmmm. i'ld say /@,rID'mQl@dZi/ and /,&rIT'mQl@dZi/, which aren't minimal. but that's because 'arithmology' is a much more familiar word than arrhythmology, so i stress it as a word in itself, whilst arrhythmology i stress according to how i pronounce arrhythmia (/@'rIDmi@/) bn ===== bnathyuw | landan | arR stamp the sunshine out | angelfish your tears came like anaesthesia | phèdre __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
