of language, i.e. spelling, vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar of British,
American, and Indian English. He emphasized the need of correct pronunciation
of every letter of English alphabet at the early stage of every learner. He

in daily pronunciation. In addition, he also touched upon the concepts of
‘collocation’ and ‘tautology’ in English language. He also had an interactive
session with the participants. This dedicated question and answer session
