Hi, guys!
This time I’ve chosen a list of 100 Most Beautiful Words in the English Language recommended by Mary, our fellow club member. I went through the list and found them very interesting. I learned a lot of new words, as a matter of fact! (Thank you, Mary!) I’ll make sure that they become part of my vocabulary, of course, with the help of MMT. In my opinion, it would be a plus point if we know the pronunciation of these words. It’s because in order to enable us to use them effectively in our speech we must know their CORRECT pronunciations! Fortunately for me, I don’t face any problem with that as I could read phonetic spellings.
It gives me great pleasure to pronounce those words here! I’d like you to join in in the fun too. Simply say each word after me! I’ve given ample time for you to repeat a word before you hear the next word! Are you ready? Let’s do it!

Today (September 19, 2013) I read the poem ‘The Chaos’ by G. Nolst Trenite. This is a classic English poem containing about 800 of the worst irregularities in English spelling and pronunciation. It is said that if you can pronounce correctly every word in this poem, you will be speaking English better than 90% of the native English speakers in the world! Here’s my voice recording of the poem in two parts! You can click HERE to open the poem on a separate window if you want to follow my recitation with the text!
