rent-gen the latter sorta' rhymes with the end of "again" in the example - which takes *forever to load, by the way, when you connect thru phone line!
I wondered because in the military anyone who works around stuff that gives off those rays has a badge that records the "rönt'gun" rays ... a lot of trouble to y'all just so I don't disgrace myself when I pronounce it. Typical of the military - why not just X-ray badge? Keep the civilians confused? It looks like I'll just slur over it as usual.
Thanks for the help.
