• 22:1422:14, 26 June 2023 diff hist −6 mercury Honestly, I think the syllable breaks are a BIT sketchy here. Like, it's unclear whether the first syllable is "MERK" or "MER", and it's unclear whether the split in the final two syllables is between "...ur-y" or "...u-ry". Because so many pronunciations are possible, it might be wise to avoid syllable breaks unless we're listing the different (and slightly-differently-pronounced) combinations that exist.
