Update to audio file

[edit]

@Vealhurl: any chance you can update this audio file so that the primary stress is on the last syllable "-esque"? — SGconlaw (talk) 15:31, 28 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Since when do -esque words have stress on the final syllable? Vealhurl (talk) 09:00, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Vealhurl: most do, apparently: arabesque, Austenesque, burlesque, grotesque, Romanesque … — SGconlaw (talk) 16:14, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe those Wiktionarians should add another pronounciation to wikt:Havershamesque, to reflect my pronunciation. After all, I'm a native speaker and therefore am never ever wrong. Vealhurl (talk) 08:39, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Vealhurl: Wahaha. — SGconlaw (talk) 12:34, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
