Section 28 PL OK!
Section 12 PL OK, but one word on pronunciation for future recordings:
4:47, 7:22 - "They were a legitimate perquisite" / "I do not refer to perquisites" - this is PER-qui-zit, not pre-REQ-ui-zit.
Perquisite: an expected benefit from a job (such as a maid receiving the lady's cast off clothing).
Prerequisite: a required course or condition to be met before advancing on to the next thing.

Hi Tricia, Thanks for finding this. I fixed the both mispronunciations and can upload the new file if you wish. The funny thing is that before I did the reading, perquisite is one of the words I looked up to ensure that I knew the proper pronunciation. Then when I did the reading, I completely misread it.TriciaG wrote: ↑July 21st, 2021, 7:43 am Section 28 PL OK!

Thanks! The text reading itself is OK; there are just two minor things to fix:
- About 2 seconds of silence at start; should only be between 0.5-1 second.
- Please name the file with Arabic numerals: yellowclaw_11_rohmer_128kb

May I read Sections 15: XV. Cave of the Golden Dragon, and 27: XXVII. Grove of a Million Apes? They sound like exciting places to visit!
Thanks, Todd
