SOMEONE TO SOUND THE T’s
Posted by william on Jun 29th, 2009
When I was in grammar school one of the nuns who was teaching us singing said that in some groups and choirs it is sometimes the custom to appoint one person to loudly and clearly enunciate the ‘t’ sound at the ends of words, because otherwise (I think this was the reason) the t’s aren’t heard clearly.
I think I’d rather do the regular kind of singing than be the one selected for enunciating the t’s. It would be, in one way, like being a cymbal player, who only gets to do his thing every once in a great while, but the t’s person would have to be alerT At every momenT trying to spoT t’s, because there are a loT of words thaT have thaT letter aT their end are there noT?
