ailbhe | Emer has excellent enunciation (Reply)

Words like "Lip," "Lid," and "Bike" are child's play to her. "St" and "Th" are still tricky, as are all the R sounds I recognise as such, though perhaps some English accents would recognise her as pronouncing Rs. For some reason "nappy" is "bappy" and "teapot" is "bebop" but I'm sure that will even out in time. "Wuhk" may be a perfectly reasonable pronunciation of "work" for this country; I used to think Linnea wasn't pronouncing "ball" yet until I listened to my father-in-law say it and realised I'd been mistaking her accent for baby-talk.

Today's new word: OK.
