Hong Kong + Taiwanese — HK2 : 2700

S1 = Taiwanese female
S2 = Hong Kong male

Context: S2 is talking about why he moved into the apartment he currently lives in.

S2 : ... i heard about of a lot of you know the old apartment you know the <spel> u b d </spel> provide you know (.) then the the fridge is not working

Intended Words : UBD provide

Heard as : you need to why

Discussion : Although UBD (= University of Brunei Darussalam) is a name, S1 is familiar with it, as she herself lives in an apartment provided by UBD.

S1 knew that why was not right, and she guessed that maybe it should be wait.

The main problems with provide are the absence of [r] and also the use of [w] instead of [v] as the medial consonant.
