a friend of mine complain to me that his mother pronounce 'fork' as 'Bleep' the way it is, and he is worried every time she said so and want to correct her,but he is not sure whether its right to correct her or not,since thats how the word is.
And if he is to correct her how should he start?

The same way Africans pronounce "sheet" as.. you know

It used to surprise me a little but im used to it now

OP im thinking, let me get back to you

Anyway as long as the pronunciation is in tune with the rest of her accent, don't see why he needs to correct her

Its clear which one she means

No need to correct her...

Let her enjoy the moment

She's used to the word like that

what if she say it infront of people,in public that has always been his fear,what the reaction of such people would be

But I don't see any difference. In Nigerian English, both sound the same, no?

Free d woman jor, she tel u say ha mind dirty ni

i dont know who should be correcting who here....

ur mind is perverted and her's is not.....

work on ur dirty self first before correcting her minor phonetic blunder

Ure the one that needs to take correction cos she's actually saying it right, u just have a dirty mind!
