Logically, some of the spelling is completely out of whack, colonel and kernel are read almost the same but spelt completely differently. The silent "b" in plumb, climb, comb etc. is very counter-intuitive to anyone else on the planet.

Many of those can be sort of inferred just by starting with the wrong pronunciation inferences following a more general pattern, but then speaking more and more quickly. You'll end up blurring syllables and dropping some sounds. The "correct" pronunciation is ironically somewhat like a canonized mispronunciation.

But many people like this out of whack stuff about British English. It literally puts some cognitive effort to learning the language which I think is good for your brain. 😀

Hi Gideon, I got all correct 😀 Pls make more such videos having scores at the end...it feels good to get a compliment from you.

Utterly useful video and LOVELY music! :-)

Nice list! I've been wondering how it would go with two of my all-time favourites in 1) choir and 2) queue :D

As a German, I am proud of myself having everything right! The only problem I have is with "months", I mean who came up with the idea of putting a s after a th after an n?

I always have trouble with "clothes"....not with wearing. just pronouncing. It's that verdammt "th" mit ein "s", ja?

great video! I noticed that it helped me if I said the words in a sentence. because just saying the words out of nowhere is far more difficult than using them in a sentence. I still struggled with 2 though! Great way to learn :)

Mr Gideon and LetThemTalk, I have been your new subscriber since a week ago, and I learned a lot from this video. I got 9, my mistake was only colonel (I never get to use that word often). I am grateful that I already realise that English is ABSOLUTELY NOT a phonetic language, especially our language, Indonesian is a phonetic language. So, cheers.

Thanks again, keep up the good word. We are definitely enlightened by some words correct pronunciation.

Thank you so much Teacher.

Lol I could not remember how colonel was pronounced!

Hi there! I really enjoyed your video and learned a lot from it to make my first youtube video! Looking forward to your next video. And stay AWESOME always! :D

Yahoo~ I got it all right. Although I really struggle to actually say "clothes" and I didnt know what "mishap" was.

I got 9. Great programme.

Is it correct to pronounce *subtle* like *puddle?* Are *"suddle"* and *"suttle"* both correct pronunciations?

I would love to see them try to pronounce “Fatigue”.

Many late R's and L's are silent for many British. So "car" is "cah," "our/hour" is "owah," and for some, "hole" becomes "hoe," "school" becomes "skoo" and "subtle" becomes "sut-oh." Some Americans from the north-east (Boston, New York" also drop some of these.

great 👌

Thanks

IYou never showed us the actual word they were pronouncing. Everyone said "S(w)(ee)oots". Yes suits, with an ess, ("S"), on the end. Now, please! Was it: "SUIT" or was it: "SUITS". Because, if it really was: "SUIT", why does every single dope put an ess, ("S") on the end of it. Oh, I'm tired. Go away.
