This book examines English pronunciation by native speakers of Krio, the lingua franca of Sierra Leone, spoken also in variants, sometimes called pidgin, in several other West African countries. The book presents the most common mispronounced sounds, giving numerous examples in each category. The subject matter is presented in comic book style, using everyday speech patterns. It is designed for primary and secondary school students but should also be useful to adult speakers who communicate regularly in English, such as teachers, preachers, politicians and broadcasters.
