  Could you please teach about the vocal and the tongue placements mam ? As a foreign English speaker, I think the placement is significant to achieve the right accent.

  Shouldn&apos;t it be &apos;wrongly&apos;? I realise that &apos;wrong&apos; is commonly used now, but I still regard &apos;wrongly&apos; as the correct adverb to use in this sense. To exemplify further, a synonym of &apos;wrongly&apos; is &apos;incorrectly&apos; - and we would never think of saying &apos;Are you saying it incorrect?&apos; I hope not, anyway. The more these &apos;mistakes&apos; are used, the more commonly accepted they become. But it still jars when I hear intelligent people like Sir Geoffrey Hinton, the &apos;godfather of AI&apos;, saying &apos;AI will soon be smarter than us.&apos; No, Sir Geoffrey! &apos;AI will soon be smarter than we are (smart).&apos; It&apos;s a mistake that AI would never make! Likewise, too, the replacement of &apos;less&apos; for &apos;fewer&apos; when the distinction is easy to make: &apos;fewer&apos; for countable items that can be enumerated (fewer apples), &apos;less&apos; for uncountable items (less water). I know this all sounds horribly pedantic. But it&apos;s the kind of thing that leads to laziness and confusion. After all, if we made these kinds of mistakes doing something like coding, we&apos;d end up with buggy programs!
