I love how he explains, he's confident as well as humble and funny and explains things very well, not like other youtubers who have that air of...I'm a native I'm better. This is fantastic and very well explained. Congratulations. When people are sure of what they know, they don't need to brag
These are called linkings, assimilations and contractions. You can read more about it at "English Pronunciation and Phonology" by Peter Roach. Source: English Teacher, non native speaker.
The way you teach is easy to understand and your pronunciation is really easy to catch. I really appreciate it. Thank you for taking the time to make this video for who are in the process of learning English.
Thanks a lot. I’ve started learning of English 6 years ago, partially discovering your content, and it helped me enormously! Now I speak almost freely and work using my new skill everyday

I dont have to go to school to take English as a secondary language I can watch it on RU-vid by free and without going nowhere . Thanx all people who tried to help our English to improve
Wow :) I enjoyed this lesson! I'm only 14 and I'm arabic and I talk like a native speaker because of my friend..She's from canada so she come by and I talk to her everyday in English so that's helped me so much! Thanks for the vid! I'm totally gonna subscribe you.
Native English speaker here, and I just want to point out to the people trying to learn English: His point about connecting consonants and dropping the sound of the last letters is only somewhat true. He made it seem like we completely drop those sounds in speech, when really they become less pronounced, not always dropped. And this is only true for very fast speech, if you're talking at a normal pace, we would still say "What do you do?" not "wha do you do" He's still right, but I wanted to throw that out there so non-native speakers don't go around saying "bla coffee" in restaurants.
+Paige Boda Good post. It's all context, isn't it? If i'm saying for example 'What do you do if your car fails to start?!' I would probably say 'Wha ja do if ya car fails t start.' But if i was saying 'What do you do?' as in asking someone what their job is i will just say 'What do you do?' like normal. Best way absolutely is to listen to native speakers speaking naturally. Naturally is so important. Speech from pre-recorded audio from books etc is usually not natural.
I'm really happy to find you among millions of learning channels 😊 your way of explanation is just amazing, easy to get and undoubtedly useful for all learners! Thanks for that😊 good luck!
hey teacher, I'm a brazilian student and I like your classes so much. Your accent is so beautiful and so clear. Thanks a lot for the classes they are amazing. God bless you.
It took me six years to learn how to pronounce english. The thing is that I keep thinking in spanish and whenever I speak or write I use a lot of my native lenguage... I need to practice more!!
Sarahi Gomez I'm from latin america and luckily started learning english since I was barely 4 so even though Im not continually studying or practicing I have a great pronunciation. Had a job as a teacher once also
Lee la Biblia y escucha sermones bíblicos y también beautiful eulogy , a mi me tomo 1 año en dominar el inglés gracias a la Biblia y a predicadores como matt chandler, the bible it's the most amazing libro ever written :)
Sir, you are probably the best teacher I have ever met in my life coz ur way of teaching is just awesome...I am not a native English speaker then also I understood each and every word you spoke while teaching unlike Hollywood movies which are so irritating to understand for a non-native person but they could also be understood by practicing... Thank you...
A good trick to improve your hearing comprehension is to put on a native English movie with the English subtitles on. It will probably help with your reading comprehension as well. I usually recommend animated Disney movies because they are usually translated well and into the widest variety of languages, so you can watch them in your own language and understand the story. Then when you watch it in English with English subtitles, you know what's going on. Animated movies also don't have junk in the audio to make it hard to hear, characters rarely speak at the same time, and the pronunciation is clearer. And they won't have things you don't need to know like cussing and antiquated words/phrases. Most Disney movies also have pretty catchy tunes, so you can practice your own pronunciation by singing along. BTW when Americans and Canadians say "Disney movies" we are almost always referring exclusively to the animated ones.
Very useful video, I'm italian and I'll never get rid of my native accent, but it's not a problem because I'm proud of it; what matters the most is being as clear as possible, I'm working on it and slowly improving.
I'm studying at a Teachers' Training College , and we usually practice this in phonology( it really helps us!).But I have to confess something...you make it easier!! Thanks a lot!!🤗
These are 3 of the thousands reasons why spoken English is so different than the written. Thank you so much! Now I can say «this is an inchresting video» correctly xD
Very useful lesson for non-native speakers! I've been learning English since I was, like 8, and have proficiency diplomas etc and yet, have not realised some of those tricks!!
He is an excellent teacher, I am beginning to understand why I am such a poor speller, however, he is clearly not a native speaker, or at least doesn’t sound like one if he is acting as if he isn’t.
Thanks Adam. I am an ESL student and wish I could have had someone like you to teach me speak, so I didn't need to suffer from speaking bad English for so long.
I can't believe an 8-minute video taught clearer than 7 years of school. I mean, sure. School is important but damn if a short video can do it within eight minutes, why can't they? Or maybe because Filipino schools have a different curriculum than the others? I don't know man. I, myself, question my own nationality.
Stop blaming our curriculum. English are divided into two; Language and Literature. Don't tell me you've learned all of those in just 8 mins comparing ur 7 yrs in school.
Good video but the description fails to explain where this speaker is from. 3 tips for sounding like a native speaker from where? Did you mean to replicate the Standard American English? There are many ways of speaking English with various different accents and variations and they are all correct within their area of origin.
I'm Vietnamese. I really like watching your channel. And, you are a good English teacher. You explain English grammar that is easy to understand. Thanks so much
Great video! I just discovered it a few days ago and now I love your channel. It allows me to learn lots of new stuff related to native accent and phrasal verbs, sometimes it turns out to be very helpful to analyze what native speakers do instead of just listening to them talk... thank you very much for sharing this content Adam! You really rock at this lessons, greetings from Bolivia
Fascinating.. I'm English speaking, born in England, and what you are saying is quite correct. I've never thought about it, just done all those things you describe. English is a nightmare language. Glad I'm not trying to learn it. Good luck and best wishes, from me to those who are!
Lol Yeah it is! English pronunciation is really different from my mother tongue. In my case, all the Spanish words sound exactly like they are written. I mean, all the vowels, consonants, syllables and so on. All of them have always the same sounds. However, in English, all the words have their own sound and that is quite random for us. Despite this, I like it. English is really trendy and actually it fits lazy people like me because you can say a lot of things with a few sentences (Those who know Spanish will understand what I mean :v )
English is decently easy to learn :D I'm just thinking about what a nightmare it must be to learn all the genders for every german word... they DO NOT make any sense but are important for the rest of the sentence and if you don't grow up with them, even after Years and Years of living in Germany it's still hard E.g. line is female, pants is female, dress is male, skirt is neutral, girl is neutral, tree is male, sky is male, cloud is female, animal is neutral, dog is male, cat is female, horse is neutral, and so on... I feel so sorry for anyone having to learn that and it is one of the very few things I still sometimes accidentally do in English... saying sentences like "nice tree, he's really tall" or "have you found the fork? Can you give her to me" which sound super super wrong in English :D
Alex Krause Very true! I'm learning German and I find the gender case extremely tricky and confusing! like, shouldn't all animals have a neutral article??? 😵 but I love it anyways! it's the language of my ancestors and my goal is to be able to read "Werther" in German...maybe in couple of years! lol
I'm glad I'm Norwegian because that´s hell of a hard language (the reason is that we don't even have a definition of what Norwegian is, two written languages, ten thousands different ways to speak it, because depending on where you live you use different grammar and vocabulary). English is easier than Spanish. Maybe because both Norwegian and English is germanic languages and Spanish is latin? Idk, it's just so hard.
I’m an Indian and I’ve been speaking English like a native since my high school with all the rules that you mentioned in this video. But I’ve been accused of FAKE ACCENT all the time. I want justice!
I work in the airport in Madrid so I have a decent level of English and use it daily lol sometimes even more than Spanish if I attend like an US /UAE flight but after a while if if have a long conversation with an annoying persistent passenger my tongue and face start to hurt it is like I am not used to move those muscle for longer than 5 minutes . It is weird I sound pretty murican for the first 5 minutes then my accent goes all bad Russian mafia guy I am from Romania and though it is a Latin language still after a while speaking most of us start to sound like cliche Russian mobsters :)))
George Bogdan you’re right.. I work in a restaurant where we have a huge amount of customers waiting in a long line so after an hour of taking orders in the register I have to switch with someone else because my mount hurts. I’m Spanish native speaker
Good evening Adam. First of all, thanks for these three tips u talk in the video. Although is an interesting information, I think u should specify that u're trying to teach AMERICAN ENGLISH, because this people who's from Europe, Asia or Africa and is getting english lessons, they usually are going to learn BRITISH ENGLISH. I mean, what u're trying to teach to others that want to improve their (american) english level is surely very usefull; you know, for those people who lives in America (I'm talking about the whole continent; Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Cuba...), but for the rest of them... well, I'm afraid that these particular tips could cost them dear.
Hola N.C:S, gracias por esta información. Yo estudio en la escuela oficial de idiomas ingles (A-2) y me enseñan ingles británico. Sabes de vídeos de youtube interesantes para mi nivel, que enseñen ingles británico? Y también de paginas realmente buenas con las que poder practicar speaking? muchas gracias!.
Also we don't talk like this in Canada, it's JUST the US that gets lazy like that. Basically everywhere I have been the norm is to speak clearly and concisely, speaking in the front of the mouth, with the United States being an exception, slurring their words and speaking from the back of their mouths.
Silatuyok The confusion in the comments section of these videos comes from the fact that Adam is either (1)not a native English speaker, or (2)speaks with an obscure rural accent that almost no one can seem to identify. For a more even representation of what "American" English sounds like, watch American news channels. The majority of the newscasters will speak with a fairly neutral American English accent or a neutral accent with a hint of the region they are from. Nevertheless, it's more important that someone learns to speak clearly, accurately, and fluently than to use a specific accent or to "mimic" a native speaker. The best way to gradually learn the subtleties, mannerisms, and usage of slang by native English speakers (which varies by region, ethnicity, and culture)is by immersing yourself in an environment where you'll have to regularly practice your English speaking in a variety of situations with first language speakers.
Since English clearly became the lingua franca of the day I quite do not see why foreign learners should even attempt to immitate the native speech. IT IS BESIDE THE POINT and downright silly and parrotish like. An average learner is more likely to communicate with another learner than a native speaker. Instead of trying to sound supernatural and terribly fluent, learner's time will be better invested in the developement of vocabulary and idiom and collocations. I personally love to listen to clearly non native speakers with their strong national accent talking fabulous English, concise, rich, powerful, accurate. This is what we folks should concern ourselves with - just my two cents in the discussion :-)
He's not even a native speaker lol. If you listen closely you can see that he pronunciates certain words with a Latin a accent. Like the word ok. He says the o like you would in Spanish and it he pronunciates it like o-k-ehy
UGH ill never be fluent in ENGLISH ... i speak Arabic and french fluently but for english . i understand it when someone speaks it . but for me i need to practice alot :/ when i speak i dont find the words in my mind and also my pronunciation nt rly good . i stumble over the words:/
don't worry, I am only 12 years old and even wasn't born in American, but I can talk like them , I am from Bangladesh, I used to do a lot of practice for my voice, some people think I am too much dramatic when I talk in English because they are not well in talking English. so be strong

i wanna speak like a native speaker because it sounds so cool!! i want to study abroad thats why i should know it well.Whenever i watch english movies i m like me : hey ,what dd she just say? sis:i dont know lets rewind. after rewinding me : did you understand? sis : lets play the video in slow after playing in slow me : do it have eng sub sis:lets watch something else
I speak a little like that without knowing wow! I learned most of my English from listening to songs since childhood perhaps my English is natural picked language of ear 😃.
I am a native english speaker and I disagree with his pronunciation of "comfortable". The "r" sound is not lost in the way that it is in his explanation of how to pronounce the word. It's usually said more like "comf-ter-bl". Also I and many others don't make the "j" sound with "did you". I pronounce it with the proper "d" sound. Other than that I think this is a great source!
It depends on the state and the country that where you live , but as I have heard many native speakers speaking they pronounce the same... his pronunciation is correct...
There's no agreeing or disagreeing when it comes to pronunciations, it depends on your dialect. In the UK the 'r' is not pronounced at all and a voiceless t + y becomes 'ch' and voiced d + y becomes 'j'. Don't know how to type IPA here...
poeple speak differently. Some of the things from the video aren't much followed. For example, while most people say interesting like In-tri-sting, when you want to put emphasis on it, you say it like inneresting (or inarresting lol). Not in-te-rest-ing as in the video.
lol my mother tongue is not english but I learned English with good teachers. So sometimes i sound a little bit like a Native speaker. But my german accent is always there XD.
GOATED VIDEO. It's really changed the way i pronounce words. Now i speak more relaxed and smoother. It's amazing how simple things completely change some things haha.
Why trying so hard to sound like a native speaker? I'm not a native speaker, but I think all we have to do is just that we have to be able to listen to how native speaker speak, but we don't have to speak with their accent. And by the way, I used to heard English people pronounce their 't' as soft 'k'. I don't know if it's just me.. But it's just that it happens almost all the time. They pronounce 'matter' like 'ma' er'. And a lot of American youtuber I've seen pronounce nt as 'n'. Like 'internet' for instance, they pronounce it as 'innernet'. I don't know if this is how native English speaker normally speak, since I've never been to any of native English speaker country at all. Maybe someone could explain it to me? ;). Thanks.
Armand2Maupertuis I hear it as 'adlanna', with a very weak 'd' as a substitute for 't'. At least that's how I used to hear how that word is pronounced. The other tricky one is how they do NOT pronounce their 'l' when it's followed by consonant, instead they use something sound a little bit like 'h', IDK, LOL. Like, 'walk', 'talk', 'calm', 'stalk', 'would'... they pronounce it as 'wohk', 'tohk','kahm','stahk','wood'... That's how me as a foreigner hear it.
011azr yes, you're right, you can hear a really weak sound (d?) before "L"... For "walk", "talk", if you look at the IPA pronunciation, you will see there is no "L" (walk=/wɔːk/), so at least, the pronunciation match the IPA spelling. You should never try to pronunce a word according to its spelling in english, because it's a non phonetic language. Instead, always check the IPA spelling. It helps a lot for the pronunciation and the word stress!
America is mixed with many people from all over the world! Once you start speaking English, you are a native! You don't have to speak it very fluently or correctly to be accepted with your language! Best regards my friends! Have a great day!
