Is it "me"?

I was shocked to hear from my students yesterday that a law school near my home in Moscow was closed for live classes the next few weeks due to an attack of missiles! (ракеты) Coming so soon after the Crocus attack, I was really panicked.

Only after a few moments of very confused discussion (OMG, was anyone killed? Was the building destroyed? etc.) did I find out they had mispronounced "measles." (корь) The school was quarantined due to some students with attacks--ie, an "outbreak"--of measles.

To pronounce "mi" your mouth is rounded. To change it to "me" you must widen the sides of your mouth almost into a smile.

Maybe the reason Americans are known to smile a lot is that they are thinking of "me"!😃

Take Pericles' Approaching Legal English course this summer, and learn to avoid pronunciation mistakes that could cause panic!

With the “Bear Market Screaming Therapy Group,” we’ve now transcended language. In the “Bear Market Screaming Therapy Group” on Telegram, members are only allowed to post voice notes of themselves screaming. Anything else will result in an instant ban from the group, which currently has about 75 members. In the next window, choose the type of your channel. If you want your channel to be public, you need to develop a link for it. In the screenshot below, it’s ”/catmarketing.” If your selected link is unavailable, you’ll need to suggest another option. But a Telegram statement also said: "Any requests related to political censorship or limiting human rights such as the rights to free speech or assembly are not and will not be considered."
