The appreciate thing started me thinking. I'm lead to believe the correct pronounciation of nude (and all it's derivatives) is actually nyude, which I rarely hear from people younger than 60. Also, one of my patients said she was going to sue (pronounced syue) if anything went wrong. I then realised that a number of my Asian friends pronounce tune and tumour as toon and toomour. Anyone else noticed this?
Rapport was established superficially.
