Look again, > "serenaders" rhymes (or is more strictly an assonance) with "made > us". Only in UK English. In North American English, that last r is clearly pronounced, and the vowel before it is quite different from the u in "made us". (Even in UK English, I suspect there is a voicing difference on the terminal sibilant, though that I am much less certain of, and it's closer to ignorable in any case.) Perhaps we need language (and variant) tags as well? /~\ The ASCII der Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML mouse at rodents.montreal.qc.ca / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
