Hello everybody,
I've not been on here for a while and seem to only use it when I'm looking for help or advise. Having said that though I do and will always share advice or knowledge what I've picked up over the years to possibly help others on here too.
Anyway my question is -
Does anyone else in this community struggle with not knowing how to pronounce words/places they've never heard anyone else say before? and say it how it looks on paper?
There's been a few times recently I've pronounced certain words/places and been laughed at etc. So just today I have downloaded an app to help me for the future so that if I struggle again or I am unsure then I can type it in and hear how the word is pronounced.
I will be honest I always found English boring at school mainly because lessons went on about stuff that didn't interest me and many occasions tried my best to stay awake. Where as Maths on the other hand I really really enjoyed as it got my mind ticking. Even the thought of Maths excites me I love working things out.
Sorry to go on, but yes it would be interesting to know if or not its only me that struggles with knowing how to pronounce certain words/places that you are not familiar with.
