Don’t Bug Me!


Today I’m in Pronunciation Rant Mode. How often I hear the plural of “process” pronounced “process-eez”, much like the plural of “oasis” is pronounced “oas-eez” and plural “basis” is “bas-eez”. Sounds classy, doesn’t it? Unless you know the plural of “process” is pronounced like “dresses”: “process-ez”. Stop bugging me!
