Twerpette (named for my dachshund Molley, the original twerpette or "goofy girl") seeks to tweak the long nose of life with humor, affection, and gravitas. Topics include dating and relationships, faith and spirituality, language and writing, journalism, technology, arts, academe, whimsy and humanity. Cheeky and tweaky, Twerpette is rated PG13 for mature language and themes. This weblog began May 10, 2005. Copyright 2005-2016 Steve Deyo.
There are names I enjoy and practice pronouncing like a native speaker, even rehearsing them occasionally in my mind. Imagine someone from New Delhi saying Jawaharlal, Pope John Paul II saying Wladowice, and John Cleese saying DVD. This is also part of how I practice any language or dialect that appeals to me.
