Pronunciation

To whom it may concern,

I've read your article concerning English pronunciation peculiarities.

I found it extremely amusing, but would just like to point out a mistake. It was with pure astonishment that I read that Portuguese can not differentiate between the sounds 'H' and 'R'.

Nothing could be further away from the truth! I suggest you rerun through that, for I am Portuguese and find it nonsense.

Thank you.
