Yes, absolutely! I loved listening to the Reith lectures many, many years ago, when Vilayanur Ramachandran gave them. You can still listen to them here, http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/reith2003/

In Lecture 4 (Purple Numbers and Sharp Cheese) he talks about the Kiki / Bouba effect. His enunciation is amazing.
