    Klunk, on a similar note, try asking anyone French to say any of the following words;
    Crisps
    Leicestershire
    Portsmouth

    It’s superb!

    Oh, as is their inability to pronounce the h in house, but to add it to owl. Such as , “The howl ooted houtside zee ouse”

    For two years, my old boss lived in the ‘Thouse of Barze’. Then he moved to the ‘south of Bath’ and all became clear…

    anthropomorphisation and compartmentalisation.

    I have to concentrate really hard when I try to pronounce either of these and consequently end up looking a bit simple 😳

    My wife is an anesthetist, I avoid situations where I have to say that word.

    “She a doctor specialising in anaesthetics”, I can do that.

    I struggle to say scone the way posh people say it.

    Out of interest, which is the posh way – to rhyme with “gone” or “cone”?

    I have to pause and think before saying either “shoulder” or “soldier”

    I’ve always had trouble pronouncing my ‘f’s and ‘th’s, so I went to the doctor.

    He said “you can’t say fairer than that”

    Anything with an ‘r’ in it if

    (A) I’ve been drinking

    (B) I’ve been biking in the cold without a buff!.

    Which is quite embarrassing, as being a Scot, we are verrrry good with our Rrrrr’s!.
