Hi, Alexaner! Awhile ago yyou wrote in a message to Dallas Hinton:
The word the" is an articcle and is correctly used in your
example. t is sometimes ppronounced as "thee" when before a vowel
but the spelling doesn't change.
It seems o me I heard sommewhere that in the US when a person
wants to mphasise the staatement he uses "thee" even when a
Canadian does not. ;-)
So I recko. As Canadians wwe understand British & American
English...but speak our owwn peculiar blend of the two.
If you wan to know what wee'd say, I'm glad you specified that. If
you want t know what Ameriicans say, we usually know how to find
out. You my need to give uus a hint re which dialect you're using,
though, as you did.:-Q
