Wrong Pronunciation A Frenchman who had learned English at school, but had half forgotten it, was staying in London on business. It was in the month of November, and the weather was most unpleasant, disagreeable, damp and foggy. The Parisian, not being accustomed to the English climate, had caught a severe cold, and was coughing day and night. At last he decided on getting a remedy for his cough but as he did not remember this English word, he looked it up in his French-English dictionary. There he found that the English for it was cough. Unfortunately his dictionary did not tell him how to pronounce it. Remembering, however, the pronunciation of the word plough, he naturally concluded that cough must be pronounced [kav]. So he entered a chemist's shop and said: "Will you, please, give me something for my cow!" The chemist, thinking he had misunderstood him asked politely: "I beg your pardon, sir?" The Frenchman repeated his request for some remedy for his cow. "For your cow, sir?" replied the chemist. "Are you a farmer then?" "A farmer?" answered the Frenchman rather indignantly. "What in the world makes you think so? Oh, no, I came from Paris, from beautiful Paris," he added proudly. The chemist now almost began to think that he was dealing with a madman. In great bewilderment he asked again: "But your cow, sir? Where is your cow?" "Here!" cried the Frenchman, coughing very loud and pointing to his chest. "Here it is! I have a very big cow in my chest!" Luckily, the chemist understood him and gave him the remedy he wanted. SECTION FOUR. Intonation Pattern XI

In questions: a) In special questions, sounding interested, brisk, business-like. е.g.
