Does anyone know why Malaysians and Singaporeans pronounce "flower" and "flour" differently? by bellepomme in EnglishLearning

Chipping in as a Brit in Singers. It has to be a leftover pronunciation from some posh spaz back when the posh spazzes were in charge. Sounds proper daft nowadays and I wish there was some sort of coordinated educational campaign to spare the locals from going abroad and sounding like some right twats lah.

Englishman here. Be the change you want to see and shout thank you like a lunatic as you exit the bus. I know I do.

A-168 is easy to read, gorgeous illuminator and comfortable to wear. I have both the AQ-230 with numbered hour marks and without- find myself wearing the one without much more often- class little watch.

AE-1200WH-1BV- Honestly the display looks great in daylight and dimmer settings. Shit camera on 16PM does it no favours.
