😛 English Pronunciation Poem - Pronunciation Challenge 😛

English pronunciation is quite tricky, it’s true,

Ang pagbigkas sa Ingles ay medyo nakakalito, totoo,

As blue, and blew too, they rhyme with two.

Bilang asul, at humihip din, tumutula sila sa dalawa.

There’s little consistency between fear and bear,

May maliit na pagkakapare-pareho sa pagitan ng takot at oso,

The latter rhyming with there, their, and they’re.

Ang huli ay tumutula doon, kanilang, at sila ay.

And that’s not the worst of it, consider the ‘o’,

At hindi iyon ang pinakamasama nito, isaalang-alang ang 'o',

Lacks consistency between dot, do and don’t.

Walang pagkakapare-pareho sa pagitan ng tuldok, gawin at huwag.

What has not got an ‘o’, nor has because.

Ano ang hindi nakakuha ng 'o', at hindi rin dahil.

A cause of confusion is has and was.

Ang isang sanhi ng pagkalito ay mayroon at noon.

Though, thought and through boggle the mind.

Bagaman, ang pag-iisip at sa pamamagitan ng magulo ang isip.

Tough stuff our words, they are not well designed

Tough stuff our words, they are not well designed

Fork rhymes with walk, and bird with word,

Fork rhymes with walk, and bird with word,

Foot rhymes with put, not boot. I heard…

Foot rhymes with put, not boot. Narinig ko…

…learning English is hard, so here’s what to do,

…mahirap mag-aral ng English, kaya narito ang dapat gawin,

Prioritise pronunciation and you will fly through.

Unahin ang pagbigkas at lilipad ka.
