Dear Max: "In my speech I am very much an ordinary, run-of-the-mill, semi-educated NZer. " I had no idea the "ordinary, run-of-the mill NZer" was so well educated, and spoke so well. I am even more impressed than I was when I was told by a French teacher that all the street cleaners in Paris spoke French.
. At this point forgive me for goofing this morning, and and making a typo that far too many people have flattered me by copying.. I meant to write "idiolect" and goofed and wrote "ideolect." The Greeks had a word for it, but I dare not attempt it at the moment.
Max, let me assure you that the Board members give you higher marks than you give yourself. Bill
