Re: "Vivacious"?
*snort* Well, had I seen the original comment, I would have been sure to find a reason to use "vivacious" in your presence anyway... so this is just as good.
But also you spelled my username wrong ;-)

Date: Thursday, August 29th, 2002 11:17 am (UTC)Did I ever tell you about the production of The Heidi Chronicles I saw? Heidi's Jewish friend calls her "Heidele" throughout the show. And this poor Midwestern troupe didn't know any better than to pronounce it "hei-DELL-leh." Took me two thirds of the show to understand what he was supposed to be saying.

Date: Thursday, August 29th, 2002 11:37 am (UTC)-- Oh! It was on the X-Files! The episode Kaddish, which was about a golem, and was set in an Orthodox community. Anyway, among the main characters are this woman and her father, and in classic Yiddish style she calls him Tateh. Only apparently they didn't know to tell her it was pronounced "TAH-teh", so throughout the episode she's calling him "ta-TAY". >:-) I was surprised.
