I says to Sarah, cause she was goin to go to bed, that I was goin to go "Tell my Tale on FHL" an I says that rythmes! She says it doesn't, so what do ya'll think?

I don't care whatchya'll think! I know it bloody well does in fact witout a doubt rythme!

Cain't you see!?!?

TELL my TALE on FH L!

SEE!

Tell (stop) my (stop) Tale (stop) on (stop) FH L!

L L L

It rythmes!

An yes I will say I have made sumthin rythme wit orange before... cain't recall now what it was but I KNOW it rythmed... an they say it's the one word you cain't rythme nuthin wit. psssffft! I did it!

Consonance, you mean?
I think that's the right word.

It doesn't rhyme! :rollseyes: Sure it all ends with L, but that don't mean it rhymes! :lol: Then again....you and yer Texan accent....y'all rhyme anyways! :haha:

Do you feel better now A2J?

That was a nice little vent, short & sweet, but a good one anyway.

Sure, it rhymes...

when you say it! :lol:

That's so true! But whenever I read A2Js threads I always try to read them in Texan. Well, as best as as Jersey girl could anyway.

:doh: I jes cain't figure this out.....

each of the words in a sequence of words ends wit L er the L sound... tel L, an ta L e, an fh L........... what's the matter wit ya'll?? Tell an Tale both sound the same, no difference in em, an the there's fh L, the L in fh L sounds like em others to! Geezz I don't think this is rocket science!

AH HA!!! I got it!! ya'll are aLL brain dead! An I'm the ONLY sane one here!! I jes got it! Ya'll are the ones who cain't rythme nuthin! Yeah I got me a song I'm singin now, "Tell my Tale on FHL" I oughta write rythmin lyrics to it!

You bunch of numb nuts.... it ain't got nuthin to do wit the way I says it! It's the way ya'll says it that's wrong! Duh! Geeezzz took me a lil while to figure that out but by golley I finally got it! Suck on em apples for a bit!

Yep, proof that A2J fell asleep during English class! :rollseyes: :screwy: :tease:

Yore jes jelous cause you cain't rythme as well as me! Rapped once to.... wonder if I could member that song... plenty of folks laughed at me for a few years, but I take em all as compliments :) They was jelous to :P

Goin to git Sarah to come in here an speels it out they way I says it I guess, you know all phonetically er whatever.... cause I jes KNOW that rythmes!

This is how a "normal" person says it:

Tell my tale (TAY-ll) on FHL (F H E-ll)

This is how A2J says it:

Tell my tale (TAY-ull) on FHL (F H AY-ull)

Your such an arse...................

I'm obviously the only "normal" one left round here... your phonixs are all fowled up!

Why say it with 1 syllable, when you can say it with 2? :rolf:

I have to agree with Mandy - it's consonance (also known as alliteration) -- lots of words with the same sound. Kinda like "Kerense's Creamy Coffee and Confections" - it's alliteration using the K/C sound. One of my favorite poetic devices! I use it quite often.

:rolf: A2J rapping?!Oh, man....I dunno know about that one! :haha:

Don't worry, I'm not jealous of you in any way....trust me on that one. :haha: I'll just leave you to your lil Texan fantasy world and you can pronounce all the words you want, any way you want....freak. :P

Erm.... jes.. nice an easy now Clayman.. jes put the keyboard down.. an walk slowly away an no ones gotta git hurt LOL

To say I had a clue bout what you were sayin would be a huge lie so I'll jes leave it at that

I membered part of that song, cain't say as I know who sung it but here goes: "Buttermillk biscuits, here we go, zip? the flour roll the doe, butter milk biscuits"

I been tryin to member more of that, but I cain't seem to git it, gotta look that one up.

An I don't give a rats rump whatchya'll think I know this rythmes, I'm not totally inept ya know... I says it to mysef out loud, I says it to Sarah out loud, it frickin rythmes! it's got all em L souonds at the end of it, an they are equally spaced out between em!

I says it rythmes an I think it ddoes, I really cain't see why it doesn't. Sarah's phonetical lesson there sorta went over my head a bit, haven't got a clue bout that either.

Not the way I say them. Tell has the "eh" sound while Tale has the "ay" sound. Short e sound versus long a sound ar equite different to me..

If anything "Tell" and FHL" rhyme better than "tale" and FHL"


Okay now-- I just saw this. Now I understand!

I'm gonna have to step up and be the English major that I am.. Consonance is the repititiopn of the consonant sound at the end of words whereas alliteration is the repition of the sound at the beginning of words. In A2J's case, he seems to have used both

Tell my Tale --Alliteration

Tell my Tale on FHL --Consonance


You know, I think we might have a hidden talent in our midst......

A2J rapping would be something like Cowboy Troy meets Roy Rogers...
