I'd think they were posing, unless they were Italian.How do you pronounce it? What would you think of a person who says it Italian way?
No, it would be /’tɛɹǝ ‘kɒta/So would it be terahcoutah?
Oh, you should definitely learn it. There's really no other way - unless we both know what the other means when they try to use their own idiosyncratic systems - and I think that the outcome of that has just been demonstrated.I'm not very good at these phonetic alphabets, so I wasn't sure what you mean by /o/. Maybe 'ow' would be better than 'ou'. Now I get it. Thank you.
I know I should. But it's not very easy for me. First of all, I use Merriam-Webster, which uses it's own signs, that don't correspond with these used anywhere else. Second of all, as I get almost the same quantity of BrE and AmE speech, it's sometimes hard to say what the sign that I see means - is it the British vowel or the American one.Oh, you should definitely learn it.

How does 'ou' say /o/?
