The last time I saw Robert we talked about the pronunciation of "short lived" and agreed that whether short "lyved" with long 'i' was correct or not, we preferred short "lived." Today, I say that either way was only in pronunciation and not in real life. I am very sorry Robert had been sick and that his illness shortened his life.
