I am from a nice area and I think if you spoke to me you would think I spoke quite nicely or would say just normally. I have no accent. However my husband is constantly correcting me. He says I am dropping my 'h's. I am finding it difficult to have a normal conversation with him because every time we are just chatting away normally he will correct me which really grates on me and ruins the flow of conversation.
I am also on maternity leave so often he is the only adult I speak to all day, so to not be able to have a normal conversation with even him is getting me down. We have been married quite a number of years but this problem seems to have got worse in the last 12 months. He says because my speech has deteriorated and he doesn't want our children to pick up my poor prenunciation.
I tried to speak to him today about it but he said I was being ridiculous and starting an argument over nothing and being over sensitive.
Any advice on what to do about this.
