JRTlovr JRTlovr Junior Member Registered: 10/29/07 Posts: 37	I am reporting back after getting it from QA- and you're right (of course) it was pins. First day of a new doc with a good ol' Tennessee twang. Need to brush up on my southern draaawlll. You should hear him say "period." That's a hoot too. PINS I get hung up on, sheesh. Thanks, Ann.

And literally, I was sitting here staring at the "word help" list waiting for something slow to come up, I saw the word "peevens" and //clang// it happens that way sometimes. _________________________ so many docs dictate stuff that makes sense only to them. . .

AnnR AnnR Member Registered: 12/31/69 Posts: 18396 Loc: Ocean Park WA	On a former account I had an ESL of unknown etiology (never did figure out what nationality, Middle East of some kind) who said "period" 3 or 4 times every sentence: pee-lee-yo. Currently on one hospital I have a Russian "groaner" (when I see her name I groan) who, when she is "thinking" says "for" over and over and over.

Need to brush up on my southern draaawlll. You should hear him say "period." That's a hoot too. Does it sound something like "PEE-(y)ud"? I have a Texan cardiologist who says it like that. He sounds more like he's from South Carolina, though. _________________________ The French motto is "Liberté, Egalité, and Get Out of My Way." English author Stephen Clarke

JRTlovr JRTlovr Junior Member Registered: 10/29/07 Posts: 37	More like "PAR-a-yuh" so it kind of sounds like paragraph- I am constantly having to decide if every sentence is supposed to be a paragraph or have a period. Accents are funny, aren't they? I could swear us Marylanders don't have one... $\:\)$
