[Jackdaw33]

That is pronunciation, not spelling.

[THECORBYLOON]

We are on about pronunciation.

Then soft s in English, hard s (z) in Scottish.

[lankeela]

So why does she say houses not houzes?

//Who are you talking about lankeela//

Really? So I was correct, you dont live on Planet earth.

Surely how you pronounce a word is regional?

[THECORBYLOON]

"So why does she say houses not houzes?" It's called an accent.

[anneasquith]

Lankeela now has a spokesperson, how lovely . Maybe you could reply to any questions to her .?

[Hopkirk]

First we had the apostrophe and spelling police, and now pronunciation too.

[THECORBYLOON]

"So why does she say houses not houzes?"

Do you live in a house or do you live in a houze?

[anneasquith]
