Evolution/Christianity UBX
Hi Octane! I don't mind the change you made to that UBX; I rather like it, actually. And I know this might sound stupid, but when did I get trolled? :-) Thanks! --  P.B. Pilhet  03:43, 5 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Oh, him :-) Yeah, he must have just been having a bad day or something.  Or he was just totally bored. --  P.B. Pilhet  21:51, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

What do you mean by, "IPA change makes no sense"? --74.79.7.214 18:00, 21 October 2007 (UTC)


 * You're right that I don't have the proper syllable demarcations, as I never learned them. I am perfectly aware what 'ɹu' means, though it is not part of the correct pronunciation. -74.79.7.214 00:36, 22 October 2007 (UTC)


 * The parentheses man not be standard, but it was the simplest way i could think of to denote the optionality of the 'g'. In some speech, the 'g' dissapears.  It is speaker's preference.  Do you have a better way to represent this?  Please let me me know. -74.79.7.214 19:46, 22 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Just listen to BBC Kinyarwanda radio, or for more scholarly proof, find Professor Alexandre Kimenyi's "A Relational Grammar of Kinyarwanda". It is very easy to find that an 'rw' in Kinyarwanda is often pronounced as 'rgw', though it appears to me to be optional.  But I hear it all the time.  'Tw' becomes 'tkw', 'ki' becomes 'ci', 'mw' becomes 'mŋ'. -74.79.7.214 02:22, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
