oh ok, so you're saying David/徐洲 doesn't usually speak that way ? Shanghai is a really big/famous city, so I guess I find it odd that David isn't speaking in his natural accent.

Thanks for the reply.

So how common is it amongst males ? Is the male teacher who hosted this lesson from northern China ?

at 0:53 seconds into this lesson, the male teacher says 万一 , but it sounds like vàn yī  instead of wàn yī . 

I've heard this type of "v" sound in the place of pinyin "w" sounds before, but I'm curious about it. Is this a regional pronunciation, or can it be heard by locals all throughout China ? 

Thanks in advance !

"打呼” 跟 “打呼嚕” 哪一个比较常用呢 ? 在日常口语中
