I did check around for alternatives but didn't find them. At 13:08, you pronounce "ere" like ear, but it should be like air. I did find some slight variations of ere as air, but nowhere did I find ere as ear.
:shock: wow, ok "unscathed" is rather an unusual word which I may only ever have encountered in written text, but I can't believe I've never heard "ere" before in my PL jobs :lol: Thank you for pointing these out, I am always thrilled if I can improve my pronunciation. "ere" pronounced as "air" makes actually the connection to the German word "eher" which also means "before". Should have given me a clue.

I corrected both parts, at 8:44 I only replaced the word "unscathed" and at 13:08 I re-recorded the part "ere Homer sang" because it was too difficult to just insert "ere". The rest stays the same.

Hope it's more understandable now. Thanks !!!
