The indication of pronunciation is not very helpful. In my area, it's often pronounced [lɑːnʒəreɪ] (using [http://en.wikipedia.org/International_Phonetic_Alphabet IPA] symbols), while the original French pronunciation is much closer to [lænʒri] (but with [æn] coalesced into a single nasalized vowel sound). -- [[User:AnonMoos|AnonMoos]] 13:42, 16 October 2011 (UTC) | The indication of pronunciation is not very helpful.

- We've already got an article on stocking fetishism, which arguably covers stockings and suspenders. I'd doubt that anything else is worth its own article.--Taxwoman 22:31, 29 March 2007 (BST)
pronunciation
The indication of pronunciation is not very helpful. In my area, it's often pronounced [lɑːnʒəreɪ] (using IPA symbols), while the original French pronunciation is much closer to [lænʒri] (but with [æn] coalesced into a single nasalized vowel sound). -- AnonMoos 13:42, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
