Thanks Mell. Keep on making content like this.
width
Thank you. Do you have a video: How to pronounce lengthened?
No I'm sorry I don't. But this is an excellent idea. Thank you I must return to create these pronunciation videos again.
Then I read British literature and come across “draught” and told it’s pronounced “draft” haha, gotta love the English language. Cool fact about 7 ways to pronounce “ough.” Thanks
Indeed the hardest thing about learning English is its Pronunciation. And you remind me (thanks) that I must make a video on 'ough' as it's a real nightmare for my clients and they avoid using so many words as a result. Huge pity.
👍
Very helpful thank u so much🎉
Oh Great I could help you! Enjoy your day!
Impressive
Wonderful to hear. Glad to help you. Melanie
Wendeez nuts 😂
i love it
Wonderful! Thanks for taking the time to tell me!
انتى ممتازه
thanks for your video 😍
It's my pleasure to help. Have fun speaking English. Perfection is never your goal - Communication is!
Thank you
Grateful for your wishes Ankita. Have a great day. Melanie
I know I am late to this, but I am unable to find anything on the difference between windy and Wendy. Is Wendy and windy a homophone or is there a distinct difference I can't hear?
Yes there is a difference. :-) In Wendy the first vowel sound is short 'e' as in egg/end/when. And in windy road it's a long vowel .'eye' or as in windy day, a short vowel 'i' . So 3 different vowels sounds! Hope this helps you.
Please follow us for English

Perfect. Yes you've got this word!
@@melaniehussell thank you dear ma'am How are you ma'am.
@@kamleshkumar.2805 Well, thanks. And happy to help.
I was suffering to pronounce "reliability", thanks a loooot :) <3
What a funny and lovely comment. And just before Christmas too. Thank you!
Thanks and good
Nice
When is coming hey in Lusaka Zambia
I'm asking you wen is coming hey in Lusaka
The windy weather and the windy road made me double sick :)
Haha! Very funny! Melanie
Why not just write "draut" instead of "drought"? That would be much easier.
Alex. Yes! What a great idea! Wish it was all that simple. Wishing you a great week. Melanie
@@melaniehussell Subscribed :)
Hi Mahsa, Thanks so much for your comments. Yes I must return to this again. Just creating a Persuasive Presentations course then will come back to these.
I just found you! Would you please resume 'Word of the day' ? Thank you!
I have been looking for 'word of the day' for business for a long time!!! Thank you!
Clear, concise, and extremely practical.
Alvaro, great to hear! Go go go with your English!
Esc
I think Esc means 'Good', so I'm happy for you to keep learning Sunilsuini!
The vowel you say “owt/out” and “ drought” is not consistent. You open your mouth more when you say “out”. So it’s a little bit confusing.
Indeed you're right. It's because the vowel sound is at the beginning of the word so you need to open the mouth wider initially, whereas the mouth is already articulating (open) as you move from the 'dr' sounds to the 'out'. This happens with most of our longer words, but I've tried to find the simplest way of explaining it without getting into phonetics which can cause more confusion for many clients. From your name, perhaps you have many different sounds in your mother tongue than in English, so I'm so impressed with your perception here and willingness to learn. It's wonderful. So inspiring. Thanks for your comments!
👌
Thanks for your 'top' sign! Melanie
Hey great! And thank you for taking the time to tell me. Much appreciated. Melanie
Thanks so so so so so much i was really need it 😀
your explains very perfect.
Great you found it useful. Happy speaking!
Such a wonderful teacher you are..
Thanks for the video....please continue making this type of video
Hi Rashmi. Many thanks for your comments. Yes you're right I must restart this initiative as I love doing it! Thanks for the push!
Thank you for the video. I once saw one that instead of explaining the sounds from start to end, they explained the from end to start. Sounds contra intuitive, but for me was much simpler to learn the pronunciation. If at some point you made one like that let me know.
Arrigo, you are so right. You make an imortant point here. When I'm teaching pronuciation face to face, this is often the method I use, especially with longer words. I'll keep you informed if I make some more videos. Thanks so much for your feedback..
Thank your madam
And thanks to you too for taking the time to tell me. Enjoy your speaking journey!
Very usefull, thanks a lot!!
Hey. That’s great! Thanks for telling me. Happy speaking Omar.

Very nice pronunciation mam
Thanks Avanish!
Thank you for your short useful videos🌹
Great, so happy that the're useful Emy.
Plz can I know why the only vowel i long sound in this word
Sadly in English, there's sometimes no relationship bewteen the spelling and pronunication. So you need to learn each new word separately. Always best to learn how to pronounce it first and spell it afterwards but sadly that's not how often we're taught in schools/universities. Use a good online ditcionary to help, Longman or Macmillan or Cambridge.
Excellent. Thanks :)
Hey. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. When you know technically how to say English words , it so much easier! Sometimes you have to forget the spelling!
Thank you ma'am
And thank you too for taking the time to tell me. I wish you continued success with your English.
Thank you!!
Sofia. You're very welcome. Glad it was useful!
I LOVED YOUR PRONUNCIATION AND THE WAY THAT YOU EXPLAIN THE SPELLING
Delighted that I could help you! Due to the spelling, this word is a horror for even my advanced clients! Thanks for commenting. Enjoy learning.
Xxxxxxx
My pleasure. Have a good day!
Thanks a lot
