#phonetician friends, what's the phenomenon when a speaker is not expected to speak a language and despite close to native pronunciation, native speakers mishear them? Or ask them to repeat themselves.

I’m embarrassed that it has come to this but after 5 1/2 months of unemployment and underemployment I am struggling to pay my bills that will come due in April. If you are able and so inclined, I’d really appreciate any support you can send my way.

Is it just me? Or do we all hate out-of-office (ooo) mails? Emails are impersonal, ooo mails are the epitome of that. It is saying, "I don't care who you are but hey, I am not here. I will be. At some point of time. But not now." Academics, be mindful that your ooo mail lands in students inbox also.
