Charlie and I posted the same phonic version at the same time. How Twlight-Zone-ish.

Now, if I could only remember how to pronounce didymium.

I think it's "did - I - mee - um" but to me it looks like "diddee - mee - um."

So I opt for "lampworking eye protection."

pronounciation

Post by Lauri Levanto »

I would appreciate very much, if someon
wants to include a pronounciation column in the dictionary.

Most of my English is from reading and net,
I have not the slightest idea how words are
pronounced.

Thanks Marchmyres,

"Quartz: a naturally occurring crystalline form of silica (SiO2) and one of the most abundant minerals in the earths crust."

Just checked it is still missing in the next edition! (Coming soon)
The self-evident entries are the most difficult to notice.
