Love most of the Finnish & Polish language sounds -- esp. the Finnish a: and o:, the Polish clusters! Hate "simple" vowels found in most W.European languages -- like a of _father_. What really urks me, though, is when British say the words "idea" and "aunt". Matt33 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
