[wanabidii] Re: [KOL] Re: English Pronunciation

My question.......why would any one want to talk like the American or the British unless off course you are a comedian or suffer low self esteem ?

'pronunciation lessons ' and ' grammar'
stuff that Mo throws up every time the wind of change knocks
Cord off it's feet ?

English Pronunciation










This week's word is ULTIMATUM

An Ultimatum is a deadline. If I give you an
ultimatum, that means I am giving you a deadline to do or
finish a certain task, failure of which will attract some
penalty or punishment.

UTLIMATUM

The British say:     A-
L-T- I- M- E-T- A- M

Americans say:     O-
L-T- I- M- E- D- A- M   
                            
(the D here is halfway between T and D but closer to D)

I hope this helps those who aspire to speak like the
British or Americans.
