Behold the truths behind the internet.

I discovered something yesterday: I have never, ever had to spell amanuensis out loud for anyone. As in, never given anyone Amanuensis's email address or website address or lj name out loud. I tried to do it for the first time on a recording yesterday and completely blew it.

It was a VERY loud crowd! And, yeah, it's not a word you hear much, and I'm sure there are people who look at it and say, "Am-an-oo-WEE-sis," "Am-ah-NUN-sis," everything. ^_^
