Is it alright if I claim and upload section 6 all in one post?

If so... here it is:

Well it can be a little risky if someone else posts to claim it while you are recording it... :wink:

Section 6 file added to MW. Thanks. :)

Hi Ava, great reading of section 22, as usual :D

I do have a couple PL notes for you:

At 2:56, the text reads: "the jaws snap down on it.", and I heard you read: "the jaws snap open on it." which is a bit of a difference.

At 7:40 the text reads: "sits in the bow of the boat", here you pronounce "bow" rhyming with "no" - as in a bow and arrow, but it should be "bow" rhyming with "now". The same thing again at 8:04: "The man in the bow holds"
Yes, the bow-bow divide... I swear, I ALWAYS get this one wrong! :roll: No wonder, since this word signifies:
- the front of a boat
- the thingy to shoot arrows with
- what girls wear in their hair and men around their necks
- the thing you do when being curteous...

Couldn't you have just come up with different words for these meanings? It's not as if they are related in any way... :twisted:

Anyway, sorry for the delay on this one, I just uploaded the corrections. Thanks for being so thorough! :D
Cheers, Ava.

Thanks Ava .... perfect edits :9:

Yeah, yeah ... I know .... weird language .... I take solace in the fact that at least I did not invent it .. I just follow along. The one that drives me crazy is "red, read, read" ... what is up with that? :D

Section is PL OK!
