Let's hear your voice!

For anyone interested in the history of the words "aluminum" and "aluminium", it's not actually a case of a change in spelling that was due to a mispronunciation of the word aluminium. Aluminum actually predates aluminium.

Using the word aluminum is not equivalent to mispronouncing the word "nuclear".
How dare you, Alpine!

Merriam-Webster suggests another scientist used aluminium a year before that... but yes, six of one, half a dozen of another.

And yeah, I'm winding people up with nucular :D

But burglarize vs burgle is one I find odd to hear.
 
I've been told it's great, but I've not had the time to watch yet. It's on my long long long list of media to get to someday :)

It's not long. 12 episodes in total (6 per each season). It's funny, sad, uplifting, quirky. Great writing. Hilarious and profound at the same time. Fantastic acting too: Sian Clifford, Olivia Colman, Andrew Scott (I love that guy), Fiona Shaw, Kristin Scott Thomas. Just to name a few, and of course Phoebe. You will not be disappointed. :)
