PRONUNCIATION: WHERE--WEAR--WERE--WE'RE

As you listen, select which word you hear:

where      wear       were       we're

There are 9 questions, and then a conversation. The text is at the end of the video; pause it so you can check your answers.


The speaking is fast and natural, like what you might hear in the street. Good luck!


1.       We ____ driving to the store yesterday when he called.
2.       What should I ____ to the party tomorrow?
3.       _______ is your new apartment?
4.       _______ going to watch a movie at the cinema tonight at 8:00. Do you want to come?
5.       If I _____ the white pants to the barbeque, they will probably get dirty, right?
6.       ________ on the bus right now; let me call you back.
7.       When ______ you going to tell me you got engaged! Congratulations!
