Wow, I'm impressed with the extent you took it, I believe the little things matter. Pronunciation might seem insignificant and that might be true but it is one of those little things that matter.

I like your zeal bro, we should all measure ourselves like you and consciously work towards improving our pronunciation.

It takes guts to score one's self low in public the way you did. Dissatisfaction comes before improvement. People like you make progress bro!

Trash! Let the English come and learn my Igbo words and pronunciations!

It's enough that I can communicate freely with English, anything else is no concern of mine, to hell with this mental slavery.

This is wonderful! If not that u posted this and I consulted my dictionary, I would have also asked what is difficult in the pronunciation, I wouldn't have know that victual sounds like vital. That is the same way one pronounces vital is exatly the way victual is pronounced. Thank u for that.
alexasomba:


There is this word I was sure I couldn't pronounce correctly when I read the poem. It is "victual" transcribed as \ˈvi-təl\. It is sounds more like "vital" and that got me scratching my head.

Anyone can read but not everyone can pronunce words correctly.
