"REPARTEE"? <:v

Ok, about the "dree" and "three" thing.
I just wanted to point out that I have worked with many Filipinos over the years and almost all of them were incapable of making the "th" sound.

Please don't misunderstand me but hearing a non-native speaker say that all his nationals can teach English better than we do (we meaning the "white-skinned"), proves that this person is living in his own dream world.

I'm not trying to say that Filipinos can't teach English, however I wonder how he would reply if I were to say: "I can teach Tagalog better than any Filipino because I studied it for 12 years at school."

Point made.
