I think that most of you are missing the point.

Some excellent posts here but the fact remains that given the limited time you have to teach them, you are NEVER going to turn them into native speakers or anything closely resembling.

Give up on having a laugh at students expense and concentrate on communicative skills.

So what if the pronunciation is not correct...........the question is, do you understand what they are saying?

"borrow" Difficult from them to say and they definitely don't understand the meaning or concept?

I think you will find that "REPAY" is a tougher concept, the "borrow' part comes second nature.....
