Hi teacher,

Why do you not pronounce the "r"?, it's ok or it's best if I pronounce?

[Linguaspectrum]

My accent does not place emphasis on the "r" in some words. Some speakers have accents where they "roll" the "r". All I can teach is my own accent which is a neutral British accent. As I have lived in many places during my life I have what is known as a "cosmopolitan accent".

My advice is to pronounce as it comes naturally to you. There is nothing wrong with having a Swedish accent or a French or German one when speaking English, as long as your message is understood.

[mariadelaocuenta]

i couldnt listen the (r) sounds

[Linguaspectrum]

The () means that some people pronounce these sounds, some people don't. If you don't hear the sound on the video, it means that I am one of the people who don't pronounce them. The (r) means that you can pronounce it if you want to.

Hi Richard, I`m sorry but there is misprinting in the transcription of bathroom. It might be [ˈbɑːθˌruːm -ˌrʊm] or /ˈbæθ-/ but not [rʌm]

[jmmunsan]

I've never seen "furniture" phonetically transcribed like that.
