Floydy, l know there is only one ‘r’ in France, l’m not that thick!
I was trying to display pronunciation as this is all written.
If we could speak in a thread, you would understand why l have to write the pronunciation in this way!

God! I’m exhausted, just trying to explain!

Give me your phone number and l will ring you up to show you how l speak as it’s not posh, it’s proper!

It was the way, l was brought up to speak! What’s wrong in that?

There are other similar sounding words that l stretch the ‘a’ ie. Fraance, not Frarnce!

I bet you say, Frarnce?!
I know the French roll their R's (awful when they're phlegmy with a cold) but how the hell do you say that?

I say Frrrrance ..usually after a deep breath.

Oh dear, Art. I wasn't commenting on your post at all. It was merely intended as a continuation on the 'Bath' theme.

Maybe, l should have inserted an ‘h’ instead of an ‘r’ to explain the way l pronounce words?!!

I don’t say hice for house, as some do!!

Honestly, this thread is hard work!
