I usually hate it when people say something was (adjective)-ly something, rather than formulating the sentence without the "-ly" on the end of their adjective. It almost always sounds like bad high school fiction.

NOW, IT IS TIME FOR SERIOUS QUESTION, YES?

HOW IS HIMEOBS FORMED (on your tongue)?!?!

Also, fuck all you haters. I love all the words in this thread. I love the misuse of words, the mispronunciation, the over exposure of hackneyed cliché and meaningless constructs, the sheer laziness of some people in making their animal like grunts.

Language is a tool, people. Like all tools it can sometimes be ugly as fuck, especially in every day life, and sometimes you will be used by apprentices and very poorly trained tradesmen. How they grunt is never and should never be as important as what they are trying to grunt at you.

"He  May Obs"

Say it like the Japanese "-hime" suffix, denoting "princess" (v. rough translation).  Obs as in Obstetrician.

Books on conversation analysis/language, interaction and culture:

Anything by Allesandro Duranti, Elinor Ochs, Marjorie Goodwin, Charles Goodwin.  I worked with these folks while at UCLA.  Even better, Wallace Chafe or John DuBois, and I worked with those fellows at UC Santa Barbara.

Harvey Sachs also had the seminal works, but he died long, long ago.
