changed AS it always has #69

Our pronunciation continued to change AS it always has, but we stopped updating our spelling. task_015 new_doc id = a9ec0806-705f-ca16-1622-bd795fec898f sent_id = 22

We ended up on Theme~>ComparisonRef but there was also an argument for Manner (and my attempt to compromise with Manner~>ComparisonRef was rejected ¯_(ツ)_/¯). Also a suggestion of Characteristic~>Extent, maybe.

"As it always has" is...not quite a parenthetical, but a clause that comments on and provides background context for another clause (dunno if there's an official term for this). I read it as 'Our pronunciation continued to change. (By the way, it always has changed.)' I don't think it means the pronunciation changes TO THE EXTENT that it always has. Theme would suggest a core participant of some event. What about Circumstance?
