re: the word “fakhr” and it’s pronunciation
NOT really! one has to LEARN how to say those words correctly…look at Bollywood singers…Urdu is NOT their FIRST language but “MOST” of them pronounce words correctly while they are singing…in their normal conversation, they may NOT pay attention and pronounce the same words incorrectly which they pronounce correctly while singing.
Sonu Nigam, Udit Narayan, Kumar Sanu, Alka Yaqnik, late Jagjeet Sinbgh are all good examples.
