Welcome to another episode of the A to Z English podcast.
I apologize for my voice today.
I'm sick.
So my voice sounds a little bit weird, a little bit lower than it usually is.
What I want to do today is I want to read two emails from a listener, and after that I want to talk to you about pronunciation.
And I'm not going to do a pronunciation lesson.
I'm going to talk more about the philosophy of pronunciation.
So without further ado, let's jump into our emails, and I'm happy to report that we've got several new emails already.
I just did a Jack chat yesterday, but I've got two more emails from Mei Fengqi, and May is from Malaysia, and she is a faithful listener of the program, a contributor to the program, active on the WhatsApp group, and just an overall great person and a wonderful member of the A to Z English family.
So thank you, May, for sending us these emails.
You know, we have quite a wonderful a to Z family and, and I think you guys are doing a great example by sending in your emails, kind of inspiring other listeners who are just a little bit shy or not sure if they want to send an email to our email account, which is atozenglishpodcastmail.com dot.
Atozenglishpodcastmail.com dot.
But please send us your questions, send us your comments.
Um, I'll read them on the, on the show, and you can broadcast your opinions to everybody in the group or all the listeners around the world.
And that's pretty exciting, a pretty exciting thing, I think.
May writes, hi, Jack.
Here's my reactions to reaction towards Shima's story, and just for a background here, had a friend who in a moment where she could have defended Shima, she didn't.
She did not stick up for her friend Shima.
And I think that hurt Shima's feelings and made the situation in regards to their friendship.
Now their friendship is strained, not as close as it was before.
