‘Thee’ or ‘Thuh’?

Anne: Good idea. But I think the ‘the’ should be capitalized as well. “The Ukulele”.

Instead of “a” or “an,” everybody should just start saying/typing “the Ukulele.” That way, it kind of sounds/looks like the ultimate weapon of a hero in an epic poem, and people can read it aloud however they want.

Tinyfolk: The problems arise because the Hawaiians pronounce it ooo-koo-lay-lee. So for them it’s ‘an’. But I’ve never pronounced it that way.

I second the vote for “a ukulele” over “an ukulele”. It’s starts with the letter “u” but with a “y” sound.

I’m fairly certain no one ever told me how to properly strum a ukulele, which is why I tend to do it differently all the time.

melissa: There will be plenty of examples. Not sure it will be that many, though ;)

HoldinCoffee: I’m sure it’ll fly by.
