We have loads of fun and it’s such an immersive and innovative way to learn language! 😄 👉👉 www.twitch.tv/procrastinationwithemma
The very word GLOTTAL is a glottal stop. I love your explanation, dear! For us, brazilian people who speak English, is too tough to speak this sound. But you did it easier for us. Thanks a lot!!!
Helped me properly understand the glottal stop. Thank you so much, it's a feature in so many languages and now I can replicate how it's used in their speech.
I really like your methodology and very clear technic in your teaching. Thank you very much! I prefer to pronounce the "T" it sounds more elegant and clear. Besides, it is easy to understand for me. I absolutely love a well spoken English or any language.
It was so amazing lesson, and this dialect or accent is my favourite in hole the English ❤ since my first visit to LONDON in 2012 i became a very big fan of the " cocny " and this is how i wanna sound like, as my many nephews in LONDON ❤
Great video, I was struggling to explain this “silent consonant” thing to my bf and after this he finally understood :) British English is so beautiful.
I can't express my Happiness because of your that kind of lesson makes me feel better about understanding fast native speech. Thank you so much. Bye the way, Your gesture is very fantastic ❤️
You are the second person who makes me fall in love learning English(after Hermione/Emma Watson) Hopefully in one day i can meet you at least for saying "thanks for teaching me"
I love to learn new things and challenging lesson everyday. This is it. This lesson is fantastic highlighting different ways of pronunciation of certain words such as 'water', 'better ' etc. in the UK. We're really grateful to have you Emma. Keep it up your splendid lessons. 👍💪💖
As an American, I do this a lot with words ending in t, te, k, or ke, but never with words like water or better (with the t in the middle). I’m from Minnesota :)
as a Midwest in the US, we also replace our T with D and also use glottal stops. that being said it's very nice to see this channel as i came by it randomly.
"uh oh" is good example to understand. it's easy to understand but hard to practise now. following is just note to share voiceless plosive [p] [t] [k] [tʃ] have glottal stops. two situations: 1. pre-glottalization: followed by another consonant or when the consonant is in final position 2. glottal replacement: /t/ occurs between vowels
Thank you mam for teaching me because I was weak in English then I subscribe your channel and then I learn English language. Thank you so much. I wish, I meet you soon mam.
this is something i really have to keep an eye (well, an ear) on in a formal setting. in casual conversation i naturally use glottal t, but in, say, a job interview, i focus on pronouncing t. its interesting that with some people, their perception of things such as your class or level of intelligence will be affected by it. another thing ive noticed with the glottal t at the end of words, is people may opt to "properly" pronounce the t when they're angry or being firm. for example, a calm "please sit down" may have the glottal t, but an angry "SIT!" they may pronounce the t.
Hello professor Thank you so much for your priceless advice and interesting guidance i really appreciate your job. I wish you peace and happiness under the sky of prosperity. All the best Your follower from Algeria
Emma, i registered to unknown twich, but cannot find the way to use it for my English learning strategy. A special lesson on it? No doubt about it, it is an adventure to join your classes. Even if the English sounds are not easy to learn for me, even if I am not able to catch the sounds during your lessons, there is a bit of advantage in listening to you from each and every meeting on RU-vid. You make your classes light like a feather. It is a great mistake to stop exercising pronunciation, especially if you are a lone wolf student of English in your mother country. As your lessons are not boring, I use them as a kind of starting warm up before other techniques of studies of English. Thank you.
I come from the county of Sussex, however I have a rather ruralite accent. As such, even though everybody around me can, I just can't pronounce glottal stops without it hurting my throat! The video definitely helped more than most, but I think I'm quite far away from doing it seamlessly. Then again, I guess most would have difficultly with th-stopping!
I am learning for my midterm in phonetics (english is not my first language but i chose it as my major) and rn im at english consonants where the glottal stop ? is mentioned. I didnt quite understand it just by the book so this video was really helpful . Thank you 💜
Hello Emma, I want to join you on Twitch TV video games and English lessons. I like your English Pronunciation with Glottal Stop T. Emma, Your English pronunciation lesson is best to me
Hola Emma. Muy bueno el vídeo. A mí por lo menos, me gusta más como se escucha cuando lo pronuncian con la "T". Encuentro que suena más bonito. Saludos desde Chille.
@@Pronunciationwithemma As a non British person, i get problem while understanding the way they pronounce words. 😂😂i swear, I feel that British people has habit to pronounce half word or i just hear it. I still don't understand how they pronounce "How are you?" Can you make a video on it. i hope you understand what I'm trying to say
Hi Emma thank you for the video! May I ask when we have the [t] both 1) after the vowel 2) before a consonant, then do we normally prioritise to glottalise it or omit it? like in 'Don't stay' (because in another video you talked about sometimes the [t] will drop off before the next consonant. Many thanks :)
Great lesson! Im from Britain and my accent is very much like this.. I was to start pronouncing my T's because I just sounds a lot nicer🤣 I think glottal words make me sound like a commoner
Oh my God, this is really difficult to pronounce hahahahaha I’m pronouncing the words without the “t” but I’m not sure if it’s a glottal stop or not... maybe it isn’t 😂 However, it’s great I learned about it!! It improves my understanding of british english.
@@videosrus8631 but I’ve heard it’s quite common in some parts of England? I’ve heard it a few times on english TV shows as well. I’m not an english speaker, sorry if my knowledge is lacking.
