Section 36: Time 3:28

ETA: Forgot to mention, please feel free to correct my pronunciation of any of the plants. I tried to look up pronunciations, but some weren't easy to find. This section particularly had some Latin names, I think.

I finished my section and realized after relistening that I mispronounced one word. Any advice for the easiest way to insert a short clip of me saying it properly in audacity?

Hi,
Nice readings! Section 35 is PL OK.
Section 36 has a spot that says "outdoor" when it should be "indoor". It is at 2:14..."The change to indoor life caused the large green leaves to fall off, but already new ones have put forth, and the vines are rapidly growing." Please make that change.
Thank you!
Amy

Hi
Phil has a bunch of videos on everything. Here is one on editing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9NuSuWYaWg&feature=youtu.be
It shows how to do that and a lot of other stuff.
Cheers!

I updated the post with some pronunciation guides for reference. I am not concerned with pronunciation. It seems to vary. Nonetheless here are some quick places to look

I checked your test. It needs a few changes. I responded in your post.
I think you will be able to sort it out so I am going to sign you up for that section. How would you like your name to appear in the catalog?
Cheers!
Amy

Thanks, Amy! I just re-did my one minute test with adjustments. Question about catalog names - is it okay to use a name that's neither my real name nor my forum name? I would prefer to use the pseudonym Lenore Vinka if that's okay.

Hi Valerie,
Your test is good now and your catalog name is updated as Lenore Vinka.
Have a good night!
