Video on how to pronounce the /o:/ sound with the Received Pronunciation with examples



Thanks for stopping by to learn.  Alright so I'm gonna make it really snappy for you all. 
Like I always say,  this is immensely vital to people living in Nigeria who want to be more eloquent than they are now.  Those who would like to get a near-perfect British accent and understand the disparities in sounds between British and American  English.

So,  in this video,  I will be talking about /o:/ sound. Example include 'awkward,  fall,  talk,  lord etc. 

So I selected a few words that we shall be looking at the differences in how they are pronounced in both British  English and American English. 

Here are the words I pronounced in the video. 

All,  awkward,  order,  corner,  call, fall, tall, talk, fork, border, ball, gall,  jaw, pork, water,  sword,  naughty,  four,  forty, awesome, court, port,  broadcast,  thought,  fought,  caught,  slaughter,  saunter  

Okay,  you can check out my older videos on learning British accent at 12 words Nigerians utterly mispronounce.

Is it correct to say I waybilled it to you? A few expressions you probably don't understand

Good morning KIB students. Thank you for showing immense love to your teacher. Many of you understand how draining it could be for someone to consistently post here on Facebook. I appreciate those who ensure that my bank account doesn't  get flooded with cockroaches😃. Anyway, let's get down to brass tacks. What is a waybill? a waybill is a list that contains  names of people and goods to be conveyed from one location to another. It is that book where you write your name before entering a bus.
