I just learned about Stokoe in a two-hour PBS documentary "Through Deaf Eyes," an excellent history of ASL and Deaf in America. I'll try to find some more material to fill out this stub bio.Birdbrainscan 02:50, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Pronunciation
Did he really pronounce his name "STOE-kee"? It sounds pretty improbable. Maproom (talk) 21:55, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
I doubt he did. I don't know any other Stokoes that do so.
- Agreed. STOE-koe and IPA: /ˈstoʊki/ don't appear to match. Any insight?
