	Itasan  +  178386 Tue, 03 Jan 06 07:36 AM I see. Thank you very much, MrPedantic. Do you pronouce the last 'th' as in 'bathe; smooth' or as in 'Smith; tooth'? Itasan

	Danyoo  +  178393 Tue, 03 Jan 06 08:10 AM Bad-mouth is used quite commonly in the U.S. It is pronounced just like in 'mouth' or as in 'Smith' or 'tooth.' Danyoo Joined on Fri, Nov 11 2005 Chicago, USA Regular Member 558 To err is human, to forgive divine. 잘못을 저지르는 것은 인간이지만 용서할수있는 것은 하늘과 같은것.
