: : ... you never said that until now. You are very poor at explaining things, if that was the crucial point.

: --It never said it did.

What the hell does that mean? It appears to be three reference errors in five words. I have no clue what it was intended to mean.

: You just ignored the whole thing, without caring about it one way or the other, which means that you should pay more attention and ask about things you don't understand, or not assume too much without knowing about things.

I did ask about things I didn't understand. I said you were being too technical. You gave me some word definitions that clarified matters slightly, but the thing still didn't make a whole lot of sense. I didn't see the grounds for contradiction. Since the entire point of the situation was to explain why there was contradiction, I assumed that finding the grounds for contradiction was part of the puzzle.

Now I know better. The problem is you, not me.

: : Although the "uh" sound in "nurse" is pronounced near the back of the mouth, the complete "ur" sound is pronounced near the front of the mouth. The "oh" sound that you described them substutiting for the "uh" is also pronounced near the front of the mouth. Without the "r," the sound would have been shifted to the back of the mouth if the vowel had not been also changed. The sound did not move in the mouth.

: --Try again, and try being serious the next time. Either you are joking or just not caring about all this.

Shut up, Mikko. As far as I can tell, my explanation was reasonable based on the information that you gave me. If you can give me a reason why my explanation was flawed, fine, but otherwise shut up. And if this reason has something to do with technical knowledge that you neglected to tell me, you should slap yourself in the mouth, hard.
