unclevlad Posted November 26, 2022 Report Share Posted November 26, 2022 I defer to the Landry rule. Way back in the day, when the Cowboys drafted Tony Dorsett out of college, the question of how to pronounce his last name came up. Until the first practice, when Landry bellowed "dor-SETT!!!" Question settled. I wonder how many of the writer types here even recognized the distinction between the compound and the noun phrase. I consider myself generally pretty literate and well-informed...but I wasn't an English major, or anything close. Cool video even if it does make me want to scream...
