Overall good, but what is the homophone for stalk? Is it meant to be stork? If so, that's way off - certainly where I'm from!

@SF7[Stuart] just which part of the UK are you from? Gorbals? Sheddocksley? does stalk rhyme with talc maybe? or what.... please enlighten me as to what.

Great. One of your easier ones, stjohn. And yes, the homophones all work in my British English too.

@stjohn came here to complain about the stalk - stork 'homophone', didn't think I'd see Sheddocksley getting a shoutout!

I'm from Edinburgh and stalk rhymes with lock, dock, mock etc. Stork rhymes with fork. The 'r' should be the giveaway. You seem quite offended and I'm not sure why?

@SF7, I think you're the one getting your feathers ruffled. While we can all be aware of different regional pronunciations, you can't expect everyone to conform to your own.

For the vast majority of the English-speaking world, Stalk rhymes muck more closely (even exactly for most people) with Stork than it does with Stock.

I assure you I'm absolutely fine. As I said in my first comment - overall a good quiz. But your argument suggesting I'm expecting everyone to conform to me pronounciation is both false (I am not suggesting that) and reversible (the writer should not expect everyone to conform to theirs). I would dispute that the 'majority' of people pronounce Stalk like that, the r sound should be absent and that is a linguistic fact. Like I said though, a good quiz I just wanted to question that. These quizzes need to be open to all feedback and I included the area I felt needed improvement. That's all.

Hi SF7 - no offence intended I was intrigued how you would pronounce that word. I tired all sorts of accents in my head, then remembered you were from Scotland where there are many accents and dialects. I see now you are from Edinburgh [Edinbraw , Embra local variants] but I believe Ed-in-bruh is phonetically correct. Now to claim to know exactly where the "r" should be in a word is a bit rich where this moves from after the "u" in the spelling to after the "u" in pronunciation. This makes me smile. If I set other grids with the risky homophone aspect and I miss, please please feel free to let me know :-)

Wow! Mate, honestly it's just a bit of feedback. You're now criticising my feedback based on how you think some people pronounce the city I'm from - incidentally a word that does actually contain an R. It's a fine grid, I just one issue with that. For what it's worth I saw Edin-burra so your argument is flawed. I cannot believe such an innocent bit of feedback is being met with such passive aggression?! Anyway, I'm going to stop replying cos this is getting ridiculous. Have a good one mate.

I'll chime in. Stalk rhymes with chalk. Lock rhymes my big fat...
