[Ads-l] Heard: "The truth _shon_ through."

[Wilson Gray]

Spoken by a random narrator on a true-crime show on the Justice Network.
First time that I've heard "shon" for "shone" since I was last in StL,
ca.1962. I've also heard "liloc" for "lilac" once, spoken by a random
face-in-the-crowd character on some TV show. Unfortunately, there's no way
to know where these speakers learned their English.since leaving The Lou.
Unfortunately, it's not possible to know where these speakers learned their

come from the mouths of people who have had to live.
