Even if you don't hear the D very much, your tongue still touches the top of your mouth to stop the L sound.

Olá professor, me chamo Mariana e sou do Brasil. Desculpe por comentar em português. Primeiro de tudo, quero dizer, sem demagogia nenhuma, que você é o melhor professor de inglês de toda a Internet, não apenas o melhor mas o mais subestimado também, você deveria ter muito mais reconhecimento, por que seu trabalho é simplesmente espetacular. Eu tenho uma dúvida, acho que seria um bom tema para um futuro video: Você acha que assistir vídeos em ingles com legenda pode ser um problema? Eu assisto 100% dos vídeos em inglês com as legendas ativadas. É muito mais fácil para mim identificar as palavras. É incrível como a minha compreensão do que está sendo dito diminuiu quando eu desativo as legendas. As legendas também são úteis para reconhecer novas palavras. Mas eu percebi que isso pode ser um problema. Muitas pessoas passam a vida toda lendo legendas e não aprendem o idioma. Qual a sua opinião sobre legendas? Você acha que elas podem ser um problema? As legendas são como aquelas rodinhas de apoio que crianças usam quando estão aprendendo a andar de bicicleta e usar legendas por muito tempo é como nunca largar essas rodinhas?
@TeacherMikeEnglish
@TeacherMikeEnglish 9 месяцев назад
Hi, Mariana! Thank you so much! In fact, I do agree that subtitles are like training wheels that need to be taken off eventually or almost immediately. However, that also depends upon your goals. And I have a video about this topic. It should be the first video that you see when you go to my channel page.
