The word was loped, NOT lopped. Her friends were running, loping, alongside the vehicle; not lopping. To lop is to cut. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/lop

I know you might think it’s clever to have Aussie’s reading stories set in America, and Americans reading stories set in Australia so each can buther the other’s version of English, but this was just plain stupid. At what point should it have occurred to Ms. Cutler to look up the pronunciation of this word? During her dry run read-through.

But, if she’d done that, it wouldn’t have had the same start and stop style where she reads a sentence or two and pauses for no good reason. However would I have enjoyed the reading, if it had actually been read competently? Good heavens, we can’t have that!

I suppose I should be happy this had an ending for a change. Two endings, really.
