Although we are aussies are guilty of putting ays on the end of sentences, the kiwis do this something chronic. Would that be the antipodean version of ah? - petaj, 2007-03-02: 19:59:00

Pronunciation: ver-bal-laze

Pronunciation: snay lo kew shun

Sentence: Sheldon Sluggdon spoke very slowly, in fact his snailocution was famous. As a result, people avoided him, because it took him so long to talk about anything.

If you were unlucky enough to end up in his class, your education would take much longer, but you would be able to catch up on your sleep!

Etymology: Snail (very slow-moving gastropod) & Elocution (a manner of speaking involving control of voice and gesture)
