Tone or Sound In, Out or On?

[MandyH]

Can you lot please not alter the nomenclature ?

It's confusing enough trying to work out what's a mention, a tag or a dag on this site without Creatives moving this thread into a muddle

The terms are Out, On or In, as described with utmost clarity in the poll

Sorry 😳

Out, on or in....I must look up that explanation of cricket to a foreigner...Ah! here it is

[QUOTE}You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side thats been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out.

When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay all out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game![UNQUOTE]

When I did my PGCE (teaching certificate) this quotation was used to demonstrate that whilst the reading age of a piece may be low (this piece has an abundance of 3 and 4 letter words, so a 5/6/7 year old can read each individual word easily) it does not follow that the piece itself will be easy to understand. 😀

Well done! I'm lost. 😱

I must say that I never took much care about the game being played on TV when I happened to be in a pub that broadcasted. The same applies to soccer, but I think I understand the rules (of soccer).

Back to the reed, I'm mostly On, but sometimes In a bit.

There should be a poll choice "all of the above". I put the reed where it feels and sounds the best. The most important factor being the amount of resistance I like to blow against.

Then there is:
Once there were two skunks named In and Out.
In and Out like playing in and out then out and in.
When In was out, Out was in.
At one moment Out was in and In was out.
The next moment In was in and Out was out.
One day Out was in and In was out.
Mother Skunk, who was in with Out, asked Out to go out and bring In in.
So Out went out, and brought In right in.
“How did you find In so quickly?” asked Mother Skunk.
“It was easy,” said Out. “Instinct.”
