4:51: '&c' in "Part III. Air, Water, Heat, Light, &c" is short for 'et cetera', and probably should be read as such
5:01: '4to' in "Small 4to" is short for 'quarto'
5:54: '8vo' is short for 'octavo'
7:17, 9:23: 'Small 4to' again
10:49 (not required): 'chamois', as in the animal, not the cloth, in "To hunt the ibex successfully is as hard a matter as hunting the chamois" is typically pronounced 'sham-WAH'

Traditionally, '12mo', '16mo' and '18mo' come from 'duodecimo', 'sextodecimo' and 'octodecimo', but 'twelvemo', 'sixteenmo' and 'eighteenmo' are used too, so you don't need to re-record any of those.
Thanks for the feedback, I'll rerecord those lines when I can. I have only ever seen 'et cetera' abbreviated as 'etc' before so didn't recognize '&c', I guess it is an older abbreviation? The others I've never seen before at all, makes a lot more sense though. I know you said it wasn't required but I will also change 'chamois' if that's okay, it wasn't like a personal choice to pronounce it that way I'd just never seen or heard this word before in my life so I googled the pronunciation and if google was wrong I'd rather it just be correct. I'll leave the mo ones but in the future I may use the other versions if I come across these abbreviations again as I think they would sound cooler haha, I'd only heard them as 'Xmo' before

Sorry! I usually include an explanation of those "vo" and "mo" notations but forgot to this time. Thanks, Jordan, for your careful DPLing and great explanations!

Nope, not you! That was my fault. I shouldn't read messages and then not respond right away because then I forget.

Don't worry about it, anyway here's the correction so unless I missed something it should hopefully be okay now

Both are PL OK. Though for future reference, I recommend re-recording the sentence that has the correction in, not just the individual word.

If you re-record just one word, you can get a jarring change for just that word. Breaks the flow of the sentence.

Is it not even more jarring though when the whole sentence sounds different instead of just the one word?
