Did you miss the famous British Humor? I guess so.

Today we won’t speak about political affairs. This very day we’ll go to France, and try our best to listen to our correct pronunciation of the wrongly spelled words.

Again and as usual, I’m writing the text under the picture, giving you the definitions of the misspelled phrases and words. Together we try to grasp the main idea, and, as always, we laugh from the comic strips because it’s too funny for words!

I hope, with the list of the definitions it’s easier to laugh even for the beginner students, isn’t it?

Could you think about some familiar UK accents that sound alike?

Each accent has its role and rights; nobody is insane, even if this or that pronunciation is so amusing!
