Phonemic: /ʔik hev diy leyv/<br>> Phonetic: [ʔɪk hɛf di ˈlɛɪf]<br><br>I
 think this is a perfect illustration of why I don't contribute much any
 more: the subject of "I love you" was done to death years ago on the 
list!<br><br>It really is difficult to think of something that hasn't already been said!<br><br>Of course, on top of that there's the fact that we don't have much in the way of Scots contributions like we used to.<br>

<br>Also, I, too, wish that Scots, Frisian and Mennonite Low Saxon were discussed more.<br><br>Regards,<br>Reinhard/Ron<br>Seattle, USA<br><span class="gI"></span></p><br>
