Hi Ava, of course! I am happy. I only wish I had more lines for you. But thank you so much!! Don't forget, the narrator is open too.

Thank you Ava, :) rh

Hi April! :)

Chapter 19: PL OK (I noise-cleaned it. I hope you don't mind.)
Chapter 27: Sounds like it has been cut off at the beginning of the word.
'"You have deposed Francois Bigot," she said.'
I think there's something wrong with the pronunciation of "Monsieur Doltaire." Please hear this: http://pt.forvo.com/word/monsieur/#fr

Oh, and I thought I had noise cleaned it already :) Thanks for doing it for me Tish :)
And of course I'll rerecord that last Mme. Cournal line. I'm afraid french is one language I'll never master the pronunciation of. :)

It's all in the pout. To speak French well, one must exercise the kissing muscles. :lol: :lol:

P.S.: Please don't forget the first line. Like I said, sounds like it has been cut off at the beginning of the word. '"You have deposed Francois Bigot," she said.'

Here are a couple more for dear Alixe!

In Chapter 10, one of Moray's lines is colored for Alixe. It's right before the sentence "I did not answer yet..." It starts with "Here she put..."

Robert,
Please let me know if I'm pushing too hard the pronunciation.
I don't know how accurate you want it. :wink:

Hi Tisha, You are not pushing too hard. I want the prounciations to be consistent by all of the characters. However, I am pretty sure Amanda was pronouncing Lucie's name from the google docs I used for the French pronounciations, which is posted as a link in the MW. I looked that one up on google translate I believe, or it could have been Forvo and the French spelling she was going by was LUCIE LOTBINIERE. LU-see- Low-been-YAIR. I believe the T is silent in this one. I think for this one we can leave it as it is.

Otherwise though, we do need everybody to pronounce the character names the same way, so keep up the good work on that. :) :)

Thank you Tisha, Amada was right, you are the best!!

And I appreciated the link that you sent to April for monsieur in French. Thank you
