amazing poem teach u how to say some words

[Nanosh]

Useful poem for E student



When the English tongue we speak




Why is "break" not rhymed with "freak





And the maker of a verse


Cannot cap his "horse" with "worse"


"Beard" sounds not the same as "heard,"


"Cord" is different from "word,"


"Cow" is cow, but "low" is low,


"Shoe" is never rhymed with "foe."


Think of "hose" and "dose" and "lose,"


And of "goose" and yet of "choose,"


Think of "comb" and "tomb" and "bomb,"


"Doll" and "roll" and "home" and "some,"


And since "pay" is rhymed with "say,"


Why not "paid" with "said," I pray?


We have "blood" and "food" and "good,"


"Mould" is not pronounced like "could."


Wherefore "done" but "gone" and "lone"?


Is there any reason known?


And in short, it seems to me






sounds and letters disagree.

sorry for the disorded lines


When the English tongue we speak,
Why is "break" not rhymed with "freak?"
And the maker of a verse
Cannot cap his "horse" with "worse"
"Beard" sounds not the same as "heard,"
"Cord" is different from "word,"
"Cow" is cow, but "low" is low,
"Shoe" is never rhymed with "foe."
Think of "hose" and "dose" and "lose,"
And of "goose" and yet of "choose,"
Think of "comb" and "tomb" and "bomb,"
"Doll" and "roll" and "home" and "some,"
And since "pay" is rhymed with "say,"
Why not "paid" with "said," I pray?
We have "blood" and "food" and "good,"
"Mould" is not pronounced like "could."
Wherefore "done" but "gone" and "lone"?
Is there any reason known?
And in short, it seems to me

sounds and letters disagree.
