Trenite taught English in Haarlem, Netherlands, published a booklet called “Drop Your Foreign Accent,” which contained a poem called “The Chaos.” A selection: Dearest creature in creation Studying English pronunciation I will teach you in my verse Sounds like corpse, corps, horse, and worse I will keep you, Susy, busy, Make your head with heat grow dizzy. Finally: which rimes with “enough” Though, through, plough, cough, hough, or tough? Hiccough has the sound of “cup.” My advice is –give it up! Those who learn English have it very tough.
Come for a dose of inspiration from some of the greatest (and at times oddest) minds of history. The table is set. Come eat.
