English pronunciation

Anh, your skill, and Bianca's skill, and all the others here who are not native English speakers but are so fluent in the language deserve special credit for your achievement. It really is remarkable.. Don't let this little poem get you down... Most native English speakers will make mistakes trying to pronounce some of these words.
At the very least, many have trouble with ;
twa
twe
twi
two
twu

.... and I still insist that 'ghoti' be pronounced 'fish.'
