This post is to practice your British pronunciation. As British
is non-rhotic, you don’t usually pronounce the “r” sound before the vowel sound.“When I gave a flower to my mother kneading the gram flour which was a bit bitter and sour, my father bought me some water from a crater which was better than the water in the river and on a sizzler, we sold it for a fiver to a carter named Mr. fisher who was a juggler earlier but now a vendor in the form of hawker who is a looser by being a miser”
If interested, try pronouncing the above passage without pronouncing the “r” sound on the words which ends with “r” after a vowel.
