Me fail english, that's unpossible!

I just learnt how to spell "succumb." All these years, I have evidently never had to put that word to paper/typing-program. I always pronounced it "surcome"...imagine my surprise when there wasn't an R in it at all!

In all fairness, I hardly pronounce my Rs, so my pronunciation was actually THAT far off.

Did I mention that I have a Masters? (And also that many of my professors thought I should go on to do a PhD?)

Yup, you really do learn something new everyday...sometimes even things you thought you already knew.
