Not for me, e.g. “remember, remember the fifth of November” is how we remember the date of Guy Fawkes Night in the UK. “Fourth of July”, “14th of February”, “First of April”, etc.

I guess you mean in the States, but perhaps they say it that way because they write their dates M-D-Y.

This reminds me of an episode of Taskmaster where a contestant plans to gain extra time by hitting the alarm in the lift (elevator) but instead of slamming to a halt there’s just a little voice message and the lift carries on as usual.

I suppose it could be used in the sense of a dog flushing out game for the hunters - to make something hidden visible so it can be dealt with.

Tbh, I don’t think you really understand how the non-rhotic accent works. In this case, the /r/ would be fully pronounced, as it would be at the start of a word. Say bread, elongate the r and skip the ed part and you have what it sounds like.

If you’re very used to hearing the bunched r, the British version still might sound softer, but even in the USA (where most people use bunched r) it’s still common to hear an r made with the tip of the tongue behind the teeth (upper or lower).

I’m ignoring the other r sounds, but you do find a lot of them across the various regional English accents.

It feel like so long since I’ve seen someone use this template correctly, so you’ve got that going for you 👍
