Now it’s my pronunciation. Why they even made me say my ABC! MP: Dry your eyes, my dear. Let me encourage you. I’m sure they were just trying to help you. I know Mr. Higgins is very keen on getting that right. He says that is the start of good speaking. E:(feeling better) Oh, do you really think that’s true? Perhaps he didn’t mean to be unkind then!
