Cool now i know one more sound oh sorry 4 more basics sound for T but so there's no R sound right or they don't count them also ya know s.t i heard foreigner said "berrer" for "better" too but i notice that it's only apply on the double T word not all even single T word what you think?

See ya,
Dex

That's a good example, Dexter; you will hear some people say 'you berra watch what you're doing', but I have never heard it done with 'computer'.  Wink

Talking about this trouble,  have ever observed our own language?

As I have noticed about the pronunciation matter, I have found that most of languages in the world have its own specail points as common. For example, how do we spell banana in khmer "CH E K",  why we voice or sound it like " CH E CH". English is the same thing!

Don't blame others, just accept the way they are!!

Hi there Den,

Well ya know Khmer word sound similar than T becomes R it's kinda not so similar i guess also ya know it's rarely heard by a native, i think, but Cambodian do use it quite usual doesn't it's sound strange?
