Gershon Wolf Poet Pleiades

Sibilant - Pleiades

'S' is a Sibilant
So is the letter 'Z'
Sans one of my front teeth
Sounds a tad more like 'Zhee'
'Say' and 'See' ~ 'Thay' and 'Thee'
'Stay asleep' ~ 'Thtay athleep'
'Sanks a lot' ~ Thanks a lot!

Quoth Theraven April 21, 2021 at 7:57 AM Gershon, Great phonics for the impediment of a Brady in braids or perhaps the speech of serpent snakes. I too give thanks for a new word. -Richard

Juliet Ligon April 20, 2021 at 6:55 PM You taught me a new vocabulary word--- "sibilant" and you chose a fun topic, sure to stand out from the rest. Gershon Wolf April 21, 2021 at 5:16 PM There you have it, Juliet. There's diligence, grandiloquence, and sbilance. Jubilance and New Balance, if you like. ;-gw
