EITHER PRONOUNCIATION IS FINE AS LONG AS YOU REMEMBER THEY'RE PLURAL!
(Psst...I have no idea if I did that grammatically correct. I still slip up due to colloquial usage muddying the waters. Editing hates me sometimes.)
"Pronunciation", but it's all good. Still kinda bugged how the noun quotation has been replaced by the verb quote.
Damn it!
