▶️ Try pronouncing the following words:
• church
• Turkey
• word
• work
• world
• worm

❓What do these words have in common?

❗️ They all contain the [ɜ:] vowel, as in “girl”. Be especially careful with “work”, it should sound different from “walk”.

#92 Afandi Quiz: Who said it?

▶️ “I was poor white trash, no glitter, no glamour, but I'm not ashamed of anything.”

👉@afandi_english👈 #quote_quiz

💡 It was Eminem, the world's most famous white rapper. "White trash" is a nasty expression for poor white people in America, and Eminem grew up in a poor white household of a black neighbourhood in Detroit. It couldn't have been Muhammad Ali because he was black.
