Sir, I have a huge problem of these aspirated sounds such as 't', 'k', 'p.'. Problem is end of the word should I aspirated these sounds. I am giving some examples like- perfect, rest, best, dust. (I know you aspirated this word). But in this words you didn't aspirated - polite, adult, absent etc. so when should I aspirated when shouldn't aspirated. Same problem I am facing of k sound- basic, break, cake, book, thank, pink in this word s you was aspirated but back, bake, black, etc in this words you didn't aspirated. I don't have problem about p sound. But this both sound made me confused. Please help me in this case 🥲.
Hi my english is b2 level , do you really recommend me watching pronunciation videos? I ask cause anyway ive understood i need to learn each word separately and specifically in order to.know how it is pronounced . There isn't a lets say "strong" or even CLOSE(not totally ofc) unquivocal patterns/rules how to pronounce each word . It is very dymanic i know it .
Thanks for your videos! I have a question about some of the words where the W is not pronounced, like power, towel, awful, and coward. I definitely hear the W sound in these words, but is it considered part of the previous vowel instead of the consonant?
why the words like: basketball,baby have b second unstressed but still be aspirated, but update have p unstressed and not aspired. My question is whether unstressed consonants will be aspirated all times
hello excuse me I have a question in British English I found this symbol /ɔ: / but in American phonology I found /ɔ/ I get a little confused can you help me please.
Can I use the sound of the video to create a mp3 file for phonics learning for korean students? We have mp3 files for vowel sounds but not the ones that I want. For example, we have mp3 files for note, o, te, but not 'ote'. I tried some of A.I tts sites but they couldn't recognize the pronunciation symbols. I need 'ane, ape, ake, ai, ay, oa, ope, ose, ote, ie, y, ine, ite, ike, ee, ea, ue, ui, une, ube, ute". It's for commercial use.
