two random thoughts, which DO both have to do with morphology but are really just ordinary thoughts

1.  if Williamstown were in England, it would very likely be pronounced something like "Wemston".

2.  a place -- a list, a community, a fandom, whatever -- that seems (against its will or not) to foster more than its share of wank could, i think you'll agree, accurately be called a "wankubator".

It's the 'book' one I was going for. If I knew the IPA I'd have written it properly, but I don't. I read the 'uh' as in... well, 'uh', which possibly confused me.
