This week we have a bit of a silly episode focused on the pronunciation of the 'f' sound.

Episode 87 covers more pronunciation.

You can find the YouTube video here: https://youtu.be/N2BZg718a-8 Note: I filmed this video before the American election so...sorry, hopeful moment included😨😭 I'll explain it in the video but the words we're covering this week are: Fond, Find, Fund, Fend, Fanned And Fill, Full, Fall, Fell, Fowl/Foul The phrases we'll review are: To bid a fond farewell To fend for yourself To find yourself To fan the flames To fill your cup (and my cup runeth over) To fall foul of something To fall over/He fell over To fell a tree A foul fiend/A foul mood Additional Vocabulary A cheeky one - showing a lack of respect or politeness in a way that is amusing or appealing - in this case because my final word doesn't follow the first rule I set for myself. To fall into obscurity - to go from being relevant to no longer being relevant, important To trip us up - of course this might mean actually falling over, but we can also mean getting into trouble or making something more difficult or harder to succeed at. To put something in our way - to put an obstacle or situation in the way and make something harder. Personification - giving human characteristics to something that isn't human I hope this is fun and useful for your pronunciation.
