I once worked with an English debutant or she had been 50 years ago ,in a clothing factory in Dumfries and Galloway region making garments for the upper class ladies .At every station in the workplace a dictionary was kept ,if a worker was in the office and pronounced a word wrong they were sent away to get the dictionary and asked to pronounce the word correctly.Any complaints from customers woul d be met with .Darling there are 10,000 illiterate people in Dumfries and Galloway and I have employed them all
