just had a listen and indeed the level of accuracy was perfect this time :thumbs: this saved me a lot of PL notes :? The part where they scarred themselves made me quite squeamish. Language notes always are of high interest to me, I wish that part had been longer.

Only a few small notes left:

> at 50:01: "not unlike those letters in the French verb 'hair', to hate" - if you want to be more precise on how to pronounce these letters, since that was the point of the paragraph, the French word is "a-eer" so the 'a' and 'ee' sounds are two different syllables, and not like the English "air"

> at the end: you have over 40 seconds of silence instead of the normal 5 ;)

> I would run a round of noise cleaning, maybe take a sample from around 53:05 (before outro), as the end silence seems to be completely clean and not useable as a sample.

thanks, and have a nice weekend

Wow and I just saw that the last two chapters are really small 8-)
