* or whingeing, to cross threads.
Now, this is interesting. I had never heard of the word whinge before meeting people on this board, and in truth I'm still not sure how to pronounce it. But: when I first saw 'whingeing', my first response was, "No! The g before i can be soft". Then I immediately thought of the word
winging, in which, unless I have pronounced it wrong all my life, the two g's are pronounced the same.
