I'm very ashamed to say... I hadn't heard of many of these places and I've lived in England my whole life. I think Jared did pretty well overall though!

+sixandahalfmiles It was amazing how many places I didn't know, and I couldn't place most of them at all, even ones that I thought I knew! He didn't do too badly. Should have made this video when he'd just stepped off the boat so to speak haha

Of course the ONE time the "W" isn't silent is in "Wetwang" - you cheeky Brits! :P Really fun stuff, Eleana! Hope you guys had a great Halloween! What'd you end up doing? Are you gonna release a video on that?

+Aria Inthavong It's typical isn't it! I had an enjoyable Halloween but it was nothing video worthy I'm afraid. Just hanging out with strangers and playing a British version of beer pong. Can't wait to make Christmas videos though! That's my holiday right there

This will probably end up in your spam box because it will take way too long to write individual comments promoting this so HI spam box … I will try and not make this too long (even though it will probably be long so i don't blame you for skipping through this...just go to the link if you can't read this really long comment XD)So to the point, i have been working really hard on this promotion video for a project i have been doing for Brittani Louise Taylor and need YOU (yes YOU) to spread the word so that she can hopefully see itand finally here is the link (also well done if you have read this whole comment): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6H3Yi_vYG7A

It's like I make the /oy/ and then the /oɪ/ or the /ey/ and /eɪ/, but it sounds really the same to me, the /oy/ and /ey/. You show off this pronunciation but dictionaries don't. But I had already noticed it. Is it really a /oy/ and /ey/ sound when pronouncing them or just a matter of interpretation as they will sound the same(I guess) whatever you are making a /oy/ or /oɪ/? I hope you got me right! Thanks a lot! I love english! :D

I'd like the answer of a native speaker (you, sheri) about this. When you say words with the oy and ey diphthong(Boy, Noise, Make, Bay, Tape) do you really make a /oy/ sound or you make a /oɪ/ sound although the sounds sound the same you just interchange these sounds? Well, I don't know. It seems me the same sound when I just switch them in my mind.

Sheri Summers commented on 02 Nov 2012
Actually /oy/ is the same as /oɪ/ and /ey/ is the same as /eɪ/. They are just 2 different kinds of phonetic alphabets. I use the American Phonetic Alphabet because it has some elements that make more sense when using American English. :-)

@RobertJFreemantle My sisters University Alumni magazine was called 'Reading Reading' :P. Somewhere along the lines we left our language open to interpretation, whoops! Apparently there are 50 or so deifinitions for the word 'set'. It could be worse, We could have a poem called "Lion-Eating Poet in the Stone Den" that no one except a confident Chinese speaker could understand.

New conspiracy theory for you, seeing as you'll believe anything as long as 'Do your research' means looking at Youtube videos. How about the qwerty keyboard wasn't designed to slow down typewriters but is in fact a tool of the 'illumamediaberg'. Q = Quiet. W = Work. E = Earth Total Mind Control R = Renumeration T = Totalinariansim Y = Yes

The entire English language is a bit of a deranged bastard generally. Look at these words. Minute = 60 seconds Minute = very small Reading = A place in England Reading = A practice some behave upon books. And so on. It bothers me how kids are taught phonics in school and then they get annoyed when they see "the truth", beyond. lol.

"Don't argue with the messenger" that seems like fascism to be if I were to take this at face value. PS people who repeat 'Do your research' ad nauseum without any counterpoint aren't worth dealing with.
