      XPost: alt.usage.english, alt.english.usage       From: HenHanna@dev.null              Is [have] pronounced the same in [What do you have to say?] in the two       meanings?       -- meaning 1. (What must you say?)       -- meaning 2. (Have you anything to say?)              _______________________              Yes, the word "have" is pronounced the same in both meanings.              In both "What do you have to say?" (meaning 1: What must you say?) and       "Have you anything to say?" (meaning 2: Have you anything to say?), the       word "have" is pronounced with the same vowel sound and stress. There is       no difference in pronunciation based on the intended meaning.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
