When was the first dictionary written in the English language?

How to pronounce the english word OUR?I don't speak english as a first language?

  • I don't understand when singers pronounce the word OUR because in my country mexico well where I learned in my school the pronunciation is similar to hour can you help me please thanks? now I hear it's like a, can you tell me a good dictionary online where I can hear the real pronunciation?, I am a spanish speaker and I am learning english please help

  • Answer:

    "our" will be pronounced the same as "hour". Distingush these 2 words by the situation: Example: We'll go back ................(hour/our) home 1 ............. (hour/our) later. In English, Pronouncing a word in fast way is different from this word in slow way. If you want to pronounce English in standard, you must know how to pronounce all words in both fast way and slow way. For learning pronunciation, you shouldn't learn by a dictionary. If you want to have a perfect pronunciation, I propose you watch English movie to fully master it.

Yes it should be like "hour". However you have to understand that there are different accents in English, and some people will say it as "arr".

like when you hit your face on something "OWW!!!!!!!!!!!" and "R" as if pretending to be a race-car driver. so ow + r = our

It sounds exactly like are. Our. Hour sounds more like ow-wer.
