I wonder if any of our English content providers would like to create a lesson with this content:

I’d love to listen to it. :slight_smile:

Thanks, Ress! It didn’t occur to me to look up in Youtube.

The chaos of English pronunciation. If for no other reason than that, I recommend that German should be nominated as the common language of human beings.

Somebody put this as a lesson into LingQ some time ago. Happy searching.

By the way, the lovely speaker of the faster video, the second of Ress’s finds, should have pronounced some words differently for a British English speaker. Conduit, for example, is not “condwee”, but “condoo-it” (exactly as the rhyme demands). There are other little divergences (?), but on the whole absolutely amazing! Well done she!

Ah, the Lingq library! It’s almost as difficult as reading the poem.
I’ve found this version, but it’s quite different:

There are more versions in YouTube, but only a native speaker can judge if they are accurate.

The same thoughts I had before I started learning Italian.
