Not to old for learning things.
For all my years today I learned something.Chimney Swifts.Those little birds we see during spring and summer flying in groups sometimes diving and darting in the evening sky I've been mispronouncing their name.
Swifts not sweeps as I called them.
My hearing suffers I guess.Maybe all my life.Lots of words I mispronounce because they are heard wrong.
20 years old before I realized my uncle's name was Lavert not Bert.
Pomegranate the fruit I thought it was called plum grannies.
The list of words are many that are mispronounced.I can translate if needed.
