  actually they attempt to pronounce better than us, but fail.
  
  how many of us can say "three" instead of "tree"?
  but the PRCs go "sree" or "se-ree".
  
  how many of us can say "i think" instead of "i ting"?
  but the PRCs go "i sink" (with emphasis on k).
  
  how many of us can say "constant?" istead of "constan"?
  but the PRCs go "kong-stan-t" (heavy t, too heavy).
  
  and etc.

  "Something"
  
  They pronounce it as "somesing".
  
  I guess they pronounce "th" as "s"

  Actually we can't be very negative about them.
  Considering their education system, they speak more chinese than english and they have little background in english. At least, some of them are working very hard. You may even be surprised by a PRC scoring A1 for GP. How many of you can score A1 for GP?
