For what it's worth, I say /'mIntSIn/ for "mention" and /'mIn 'S@n/ for "men shun". I do use /S@n/ for most -tion/-sion words. I think I have /I/ in "mention" because of influence from the /I/ in the first syllable, I do the same for words like "pension". Do you really use /S/ and not /tS/? -- "There's no such thing as 'cool'. Everyone's just a big dork or nerd, you just have to find people who are dorky the same way you are." - overheard ICQ: 18656696 AIM Screen-Name: NikTaylor42
