Hallo,

Wie wird „lead“ ausgesprochen? Ich hab zwei Varianten
gefunden, einmal „led“ und einmal „lied“?
Wann kommt was vor? Ändert es die Bedeutung?

wenn es „Blei“ bedeutet: /lɛd/ bzw. [led],

Aussprache /lid/ bzw. [leed] bei „führen“, „Leine“ etc.

Anhören kannst Du es Dir auf http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/lead

Hallo,

lead = „lied“ wird auch für (Strom oder Signal)- Leitungen gebraucht: Connect yellow-green lead of cable to ground.
Connect red lead to pin # 7.

Ja weißt du, zu Hause surfe ich derzeit immer noch mit UMTS, da dauert jeder Klick 10-20 Sekunden, mit dem Ergebnis, dass ich mir einige davon spare.

Momentan bin ich in einer WLAN-Oase, aber nicht mehr lange, weil es in besagter Oase keinen Tee gibt …

ot aber unterhaltsam?
Hallo Laralinda, sieh mal hier wie vielfach so etwas in der englischen Sprache vorkommt:

When the English tongue we speak
Why is „break“ not rhymed with „freak?“
Will you tell me why it’s true
We say „sew“ but also „few;“
And the maker of a verse
Cannot rhyme his „horse“ with „worse;“
„Beard“ sounds not the same as „heard;“
„Cord“ is different than „word.“
Cow is „cow“ but low is „low.“
„Shoe“ is never rhymed with „foe;“
Think of „hose“ and „dose“ and „lose;“
And think of „goose“ and not of „choose;“
Think of „comb“ and „tomb“ and „bomb;“
„Doll“ and „roll“, „home“ and „some;“
And since „pay“ is rhymed with „say,“
Why not „paid“ with „said“, I may?
We have „blood“ and „food“ and „good;“
„Mould“ is not pronounced like „could;“
Why is it „done“ but „gone“ and „lone?“
Is there any reason known?
And, in short, it seems to me (that)
Sounds and letters disagree.

Schönen Gruß

Chaos
In the same vein, but longer:
Dearest creature in creation
Studying English pronunciation,
I will teach you in my verse
Sounds like corpse, corps, horse and worse
I will keep you, Susy, busy,
Make your head with heat grow dizzy.
Tear in eye your dress you’ll tear,
So shall I! Oh, hear my prayer,
Pray, console your loving poet,
Make my coat look new, dear, sew it!
Just compare heart, beard and heard,
Dies and diet, lord and word,
Sword and sward, retain and Britain.
(Mind the latter, how it’s written).
Made has not the sound of bade,
Say said, pay-paid, laid, but plaid.
Now I surely will not plague you
With such words as vague and ague,
But be careful how you speak,
Say break, steak, but bleak and streak.
Previous, precious, fuchsia, via,
Pipe, snipe, recipe and choir,
Cloven, oven, how and low,
Script, receipt, shoe, poem, toe.
Hear me say, devoid of trickery:
Daughter, laughter and Terpsichore,
Typhoid, measles, topsails, aisles.
Exiles, similes, reviles.
Wholly, holly, signal, signing.
Thames, examining, combining
Scholar, vicar, and cigar,
Solar, mica, war, and far.
From „desire“: desirable–admirable from „admire.“
Lumber, plumber, bier, but brier.
Chatham, brougham, renown, but known.
Knowledge, done, but gone and tone,
One, anemone. Balmoral.
Kitchen, lichen, laundry, laurel,
Gertrude, German, wind, and mind.
Scene, Melpomene, mankind,
Tortoise, turquoise, chamois-leather,
Reading, reading, heathen, heather.
This phonetic labyrinth
Gives moss, gross, brook, brooch, ninth, plinth.
Billet does not end like ballet;
Bouquet, wallet, mallet, chalet;
Blood and flood are not like food,
Nor is mould like should and would.
Banquet is not nearly parquet,
Which is said to rime with „darky.“
Viscous, Viscount, load, and broad.
Toward, to forward, to reward.
And your pronunciation’s O.K.,
When you say correctly: croquet.
Rounded, wounded, grieve, and sieve,
Friend and fiend, alive, and live,
Liberty, library, heave, and heaven,
Rachel, ache, moustache, eleven,
We say hallowed, but allowed,
People, leopard, towed, but vowed.
Mark the difference, moreover,
Between mover, plover, Dover,
Leeches, breeches, wise, precise,
Chalice, but police, and lice.
Camel, constable, unstable,
Principle, disciple, label,
Petal, penal, and canal,
Wait, surmise, plait, promise, pal.
Suit, suite, ruin, circuit, conduit,
Rime with „shirk it“ and „beyond it.“
But it is not hard to tell,
Why it’s pall, mall, but Pall Mall.
Muscle, muscular, gaol, iron,
Timber, climber, bullion, lion,
Worm and storm, chaise, chaos, and chair,
Senator, spectator, mayor,
Ivy, privy, famous, clamour
And enamour rime with hammer.
Pussy, hussy, and possess,
Desert, but dessert, address.
Golf, wolf, countenance, lieutenants.
Hoist, in lieu of flags, left pennants.
River, rival, tomb, bomb, comb,
Doll and roll and some and home.
Stranger does not rime with anger.
Neither does devour with clangour.
Soul, but foul and gaunt but aunt.
Font, front, won’t, want, grand, and grant.
Shoes, goes, does. Now first say: finger.
And then: singer, ginger, linger,
Real, zeal, mauve, gauze, and gauge,
Marriage, foliage, mirage, age.
Query does not rime with very,
Nor does fury sound like bury.
Dost, lost, post; and doth, cloth, loth;
Job, Job; blossom, bosom, oath.
Though the difference seems little,
We say actual, but victual.
Seat, sweat; chaste, caste.; Leigh, eight, height;
Put, nut; granite, and unite.
Reefer does not rime with deafer,
Feoffer does, and zephyr, heifer.
Dull, bull, Geoffrey, George, ate, late,
Hint, pint, Senate, but sedate.
Scenic, Arabic, Pacific,
Science, conscience, scientific,
Tour, but our and succour, four,
Gas, alas, and Arkansas.
Sea, idea, guinea, area,
Psalm, Maria, but malaria,
Youth, south, southern, cleanse and clean,
Doctrine, turpentine, marine.
Compare alien with Italian,
Dandelion with battalion.
Sally with ally, yea, ye,
Eye, I, ay, aye, whey, key, quay.
Say aver, but ever, fever.
Neither, leisure, skein, receiver.
Never guess–it is not safe:
We say calves, valves, half, but Ralph.
Heron, granary, canary,
Crevice and device, and eyrie,
Face but preface, but efface,
Phlegm, phlegmatic, ass, glass, bass.
Large, but target, gin, give, verging,
Ought, out, joust, and scour, but scourging,
Ear but earn, and wear and bear
Do not rime with here, but ere.
Seven is right, but so is even,
Hyphen, roughen, nephew, Stephen,
Monkey, donkey, clerk, and jerk,
Asp, grasp, wasp, and cork and work.
Pronunciation–think of psyche–!
Is a paling, stout and spikey,
Won’t it make you lose your wits,
Writing „groats“ and saying „grits“?
It’s a dark abyss or tunnel,
Strewn with stones, like rowlock, gunwale,
Islington and Isle of Wight,
Housewife, verdict, and indict!
Don’t you think so, reader, rather,
Saying lather, bather, father?
Finally: which rimes with „enough“
Though, through, plough, cough, hough, or tough?
Hiccough has the sound of „cup.“
My advice is–give it up!

Yes, I know that one too, but thought it’s may be too complicated.
There’s another one:

Ode to English Plurals…
Best collection of linguistic anomalies yet!

We’ll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes,
But the plural of ox becomes oxen, not oxes.
One fowl is a goose, but two are called geese,
Yet the plural of moose should never be meese.
You may find a lone mouse or a nest full of mice,
Yet the plural of house is houses, not hice.

If the plural of man is always called men,
Why shouldn’t the plural of pan be called pen?
If I speak of my foot and show you my feet,
And I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet?
If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth,
Why shouldn’t the plural of booth be called beeth?

Then one may be that, and three would be those,
Yet hat in the plural would never be hose,
And the plural of cat is cats, not cose.
We speak of a brother and also of brethren,
But though we say mother, we never say methren.
Then the masculine pronouns are he, his and him,
But imagine the feminine: she, shis and shim!

Let’s face it - English is a crazy language.
There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger;
neither apple nor pine in pineapple.

Don’t want to bore anyone therefore with this I shut up:

OUR KRAZY LANGUAGE

English is the most widely used language in the history of the world.
More than half the world’s books are written in it
and one in every seven people can speak it.
The English language consists of about 2 million words
and owns a noble body of literature.

However, we have to admit it is a krazy language!

There is no egg in an eggplant;
no pine nor apple in pineapple;
and there is no ham in a hamburger.

Sweetmeats are confectionery and sweetbreads,
which aren’t sweet, are meat.

English muffins weren’t invented in England
and French Fries weren’t invented in France.

We know that quicksand can flow slowly
and boxing rings are square;
public bathrooms have no bath;
and Guinea Pigs aren’t pigs.

Why is it that writers write but fingers don’t fing,
grocers don’t groce, and hammers
don’t ham.

If the plural of tooth is teeth,
shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth?
One goose, two geese -so;
one moose two meese??

If the teacher taught
why didn’t the preacher praught?
If a vegetarian eats vegetables,
what does a humanitarian eat?

If you wrote a letter
you should have bot your tongue.

In what other language can you
drive on a parkway and park in a driveway;
recite at a play and play at a recital;
have noses that run and feet that smell?

How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same,
while a wise man and a wise guy
are opposites?

How can quite a lot and quite a few be the same?
How can the weather be hot as hell one day
and cold as hell the next?

Have you ever noticed how we talk about
certain things when they are absent.
Have you ever seen a horseful carriage
or a strap gown; met a sung hero
or experienced requited love?

Have you ever run into anyone that was
gruntled, ruly or peccable?

Isn’t it marvellous how our language enables your
house to burn up as it’s burning down
and how we can fill in a form by filling it out!

English was invented by people, not computers
and reflects the creativity of the human race
( which really isn’t a race at all ).
That is why when the stars are out they are visible
but when the light is out it is invisible.

And that is why when I wind up my watch I start it
but when I wind up this essay I finish it!!!

Guten Tag,

als Höhepunkt nur noch die Vergangenheit „led“, gesprochen wie geschrieben, also wie bei „Blei“.
