OMG, Channel 7!
October 6th, 2014
Seriously Channel Seven, you need your on-air people to lift their game. Why? Because they are getting LAZY with the English language. In tonight’s Sydney evening news, we had these two clangers:
“Regyully”
“Particyully”
It’s not difficult to pronounce these two words correctly, and it could assist enormously in raising the language skills of your viewership, rather than perpetuate poor English usage. For the record, here’s the pronunciations you should be promoting among your on-air staff:
Regularly = reg-yew-lahr-lee
Particularly = par-tik-yew-lahr-lee
