Sound samples

Hello, I would like to have some samples here. They would have to be recorded by Wikipedians, because the common voices might be restricted for free usage. Who could record imitated alerts and stuff? That'll be great! I would like to give some time and effort in return. --Scriberius (talk) 01:05, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Name Explanation

This article states: "The name 'Betty' is a generic popular traditional name from the American culture, and is not derived from more recent uses of the word to describe an attractive female (in reference to Betty Rubble of The Flintstones)." Perhaps Betty was a "generic popular traditional name from the American culture" but not since the 60s - it's pretty clear this wasn't written by a native English (or U.S. English) speaker as "the American culture" should be just "American culture" if even that. Obviously, the choice of name was for alliterative effect to go with Bitchin' more than because it was "a generic popular traditional name" - again who wrote this Borat? I don't think anyone from the U.S. (or even our British friends) would use such a clunky construction. The reference to the Flinestones and attractive women is fairly obscure and sounds like padding by someone just creating filler (not to mention probably being original research in this context - how does the author know this?). Oh, there shouldn't be a comman after culture either. So, this statement misses the obvious reason why Betty is used, introduces a non sequitur by bringing in the Flinstones reference, possibly involves original research, is awkardly written in spots, and has one or more grammatical errors - other than that...Jmdeur (talk) 18:58, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Annunciation

Was Arrabito (under Voice Gender) really talking about annunciation or was it enunciation? 94.174.43.180 (talk) 05:25, 6 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
