Understanding Accents

One must also have a ear for the alphabet as it resounds in words.

The tongue is a very tricky instrument and must be trained to touch the
right part of the palate.

Celtics have the hang of this, as do the Spanish with that rolling "r" in time.
Some of us still say 'tree' for three, by the way.

So, that is a good sign, at least, for this present season.
