thank you for the fast turn-around, Sarah :) and you portray Mrs Ware really the way I saw her too, so aloof and a little bit arrogant, but always careful to still sound like a woman of refinement. :thumbs:

Since I know you want pronunciation suggestions, there is only one small word I would suggest to get corrected:

> at 0:19: (p. 109) "The story of the piece was most dis-taste-ful to me." - you say "de-testy-ful", which sounds a bit odd.

Thanks

Thanks!

I was feeling something is wrong with that word but I didn't know what to do. For some reason the transition for most distasteful is challenging.
Thanks, SaraHale. :D

the easiest way is to say the word "taste" between "dis" and "ful". I think you confused it with "detestable".
