Some common INTERJECTIONS

Foto: What's an interjection? It's an exclamation, especially as a part of speech, e.g., ah! or dear me!. For a bigger, clearer picture, download the PDF version: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/75624506/1-interjections.jpg Here's a good list of common interjections. To listen to them, go to Forvo for real human voices. Forvo also tells you if the person saying the word is British or American...! For example, here are a dozen people prononcing "Wow". My 2 favorites at http://www.forvo.com/word/wow/#en are "Pronunciation by liatris (Female from Australia)" and leowarfare (Male from United States) Click on the blur play buttons to listen. Type any words you want to listen to in the box at the top on the right! You can find almost ANY word at Forvo, but there aren't a lot of interjections, because, they are, well... special. Finally try to find one that is not in the list!
