- Hello everyone, this is Lucy
-
from English with Lucy.
-
I've got a really, really quick video answering a question
-
that I've been getting quite a lot
-
and it is how do you pronounce this word?
-
Well, there are two acceptable ways of pronouncing it.
-
Now, originally in old, old English,
-
the only correct way was often.
-
Often.
-
But now many, many people pronounce it often.
-
Often.
-
And Cambridge and Oxford dictionaries
-
both accept this pronunciation.
-
I am actually more inclined
-
to pronounce it often as well
-
simply because it's something
-
that my parents said.
-
So, both are absolutely fine
-
and don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
-
Big kiss to all my Lucifers
-
and I'll see you again for another lesson
-
very, very soon.
