It’s yours and it’s not free

Heeeey bastard Dutch is rearing its ugly head at those expensive record stores! How do you like this mangled homonym that only the Dutch can pronounce properly? Yours and yource (rhymes with source) is just not pronounced the same in English. It reminds of Dutch speakers who voice their ‘z’ at the end of words (instead of making it sound like a ‘s’), which sounds like a snake is trying to converse with you. I swear, I often use to feel like drinking water after hearing such a conversation like my mouth went dry by proxy. Someone please explain to them that they are working way too hard with those ‘z’.
