Zooheekock Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 In a similar vein, one could probably add 'clueless imbecile', 'witless fool', 'geriatric bellend' and 'uneducated cretin' to the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phatcharanan Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 (edited) 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?

Well if they said Sam Allardyce is the best manager in the premier league, I think I might have a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardholder Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 "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..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
