<< Which reminds me--sorry to ask such a newbie-American question, but how is 
 "Whinging" pronounced?  And does it mean the same thing as American 
 "whining"?  If not, what does it mean? >>

Taken from my Readers Digest Ultimate Dictionary of Knowledge ( ;o) ) Whinge 
is pronounced:

Winj or hwinj 

Whinging is just that with an ing on the end... much like Whine & Whining. 

Yes they mean the same.

Sara - whose been working 11 hour shifts the past week & it's all catching up 
now, so sorry if this doesn't make a whole lot of sense :o)
