[modifier le wikicode]every so often \Prononciation ?\
- Occasionnellement, de manière intermittente, de temps en temps.
The actual words are extremely hard to grip on to. You can hear the audience dutifully applauding every so often, from which I concluded that a rather undramatic cricket match was being played at the other end of the hall.
