Re: ~[EXPLORERS]The Third Voyage of James Cook. Volume 1 -jo

two small notes for section 9 : > at 33:41 : "in ph this ical complaints" – I hear " fist ical". Tricky word indeed. The initial two letters "ph" are not voiced, it's simply pronounced " tisical ", you can have a listen here: https://www.merriam-webster.com/di...

thanks for the confirmation, Kevin :) finished section 8, only one small omission in the table (what a feat !) > at 24:51 : "Lieutenant 1 Molesworth Philips " – you omitted "Philips". I found him here: https://www.captaincooksociety.com/cooks-life/people/cooks-officers-and-crew-a...

Hello, I see this is in need of a DPL, so I could volunteer for the job. Unless Kevin has decided to continue after all...just let me know I started with section 7 and it's perfectly and flawlessly narrated :thumbs: Absolutely PL ok . I can go on with the next sections, if that's all right. Sonia
