Thread Name: Auld Lang Syne - folk process?
Subject: RE: Auld Lang Syne - folk process?
I was just watching a PBS tv show called "Real Simple".
Their "word expert" was talking about Auld Lang Syne. They gave pronunciation of syne in Auld Lang Syne as.... "ZYNE".
Aaaargh.. like fingernails on a chalk board when I hear that!
I fired off a message to let them know there is no "z" in syne!
If you want to contact them, the web site is here:
