With only a few more rounds left of our commonly mispronounced series, we thought we'd open up the floor to you!

Let us know the funniest word you've heard mispronounced for us to feature in the final parts of our series.

The following is an example of how to answer a question that seems to be testing your general knowledge and a question which you don't know the answer to.

The general topic under discussion is the high price of new apartments in the bigger cities of China. Then the examiner asks, "What's the government doing to help low-income people buy their own home?" (The question might be expressed as, "Is the government doing anything to help low-income people buy their own home?")

In the Speaking test, you will not lose points if you start your answer with, "I have no idea" but keep talking about the topic of the question.

Here are some suitable answers:

🗨 "I have no idea but, if I were the government, I'd build many small, cheap apartments on the edge of the city where the land is cheap and I'd sell them to the low income people at a low price, possibly even below the cost of construction because, after all, the government doesn't need to worry about making a profit."

The candidate suggested a solution to the problem, even though the question was not (directly) asking for a suggestion. This is how people talk when they discuss a topic.
