Not in public I hope. :shock:]]> Guitar Players Discussion Chris C https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/you-say-tomatoes/paged/4/#post-294325 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/you-say-tomatoes/paged/4/#post-294324 Thu, 29 May 2008 17:52:31 +0000 So there you have it:
Capo is pronounced SOPI
So next time you want to transpose, just stick your “Soppy” on. Simple when you know how. :wink: Sometimes my soppy gets all noodley.]]> Guitar Players Discussion KR2 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/you-say-tomatoes/paged/4/#post-294324 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/you-say-tomatoes/paged/4/#post-294323 Thu, 29 May 2008 17:40:17 +0000


Fortunately, I'm an expert in English pronunciation – as all Australians are – so I'll just step in here and clear up the confusion.

For start the letter C is not pronounced like a K here. It's an S sound (think nice, mice, except, etc – even etcetera itself…)

Secondly, the A is not prounced like either CAP or CAPE – it's (and this should be obvious…) pronounced as an O (think “wash”)

There's not much you can do with a P (apart from making sure you aim straight) unless you have a spare H, in which case it becomes an F, as in pheasant). So let's move on to the O.

The trick with the O is to forget about “open” or “cop” or even “owl” and go straight to that source of all that's delightful, mysterious and unpredictable – women. Notice the clear indication that the O is sounded like the I in INK.

So there you have it:

Capo is pronounced SOPI

So next time you want to transpose, just stick your “Soppy” on. Simple when you know how. :wink:

Which post were you referring to? I'm very careful in my internet-speak due to the fact that I know any one can google me or my IP address so I guess I agree on the Orwell reference. Lots of books and stories that were published in 1948 were prescient beyond their current estimation (The Lottery, anyone? An interesting phenomenon for those who don't know)

Who said something personally damaging because I think I missed it :? .

Are you any relation to the KR that often appears as a guest on the show in my sig? If so, you rule.

Peace,
Jicky The post I was referring to was Vic's. He mentioned the link to GN from Wikipedia when he used it to look up capo.
The links are probably due to the bots fetching their information and bringing it back to their "masters".

Nothing damaging was said. Just the opposite: kudos to David Hodge for being cited by the bot (or whomever).

No relationship to the First Edition guy . . . not that I know of anyway. But I rule anyway.]]> Guitar Players Discussion KR2 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/you-say-tomatoes/paged/3/#post-294319 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/you-say-tomatoes/paged/3/#post-293756 Sun, 25 May 2008 07:01:25 +0000

If you are paranoid, this should freak you out.
If you are egotistical, you take this for granted.
If you are shy, you won't post.
If you're female, you're flattered.
If you're male, you understand a bot has no life.
If you don't know what a bot is, see Who is Online (or read George Orwell's 1984? :shock: )
They walk among us, those bots - cute little bugs.

Ken You speak like French too :wink:
