Cue-dahhhhhhhs

The Con High School is just like Hogwarts!! Today they elected their house captains. But instead of Ravenclaw, Slytherin, etc., the Con HS is divided into Bach, Beethoven and Brahms. (How adorably dorky and quaint, at the same time!) The high school librarian was explaining the system to me at work, and said it was a great "cuedahhhhhhs" to be elected. Thrilled to be encountering a word that sounded like a Trekkie alien race I queried the word. "You've never heard "cuedahhhhhhhs" before?" She looked astounded. "K-U-D-O-S?"

Alas. Tripped up again by another Australian pro-nun-ski-ation!
