I love your videos. I use them in my ESL classes all the time. Thanks for the fun, informative and playful instruction.
You're so welcome! We love getting that feedback, thanks!
You make learning easier with your wonderful way " funny training " as well as your gorgeous voice and accent.
Great! We think learning should be fun!
Ok I got the mask
Hi guys! Long time no see. Thanks for this video. I missed your classes. Please keep posting. You are really good at it.
Aw, thanks for the encouragement! We've missed posting. We plan to do more soon.
Very easy & nice way of learning
Really nice! I would use it with CLB 3s but right now I have CLB 1 and 2, so they wouldn't understand much of the talk in between the examples. Thanks!
Yeah, we're a little fast for those lower levels! We're glad you like it though.
Great. Thanks! Whenever I have to say Schengen visa I get confused if its a soft or hard g. I realised I did not know the logic behind when to use hard or soft g/c. So from now on, I will remember e, i, y as softners haha
Glad it was helpful!
great video.
Please Don stop making more videos! I've just discovered your channel and I'm amazed with your supper fun and simple way to teach English! Never be discouraged you are super great ladies

Good question! We plan to put a new video out this month.
I noticed you haven't uploaded any videos in a while, so I hope that you're both doing alright since this has been a crazy year. I love your videos and how cheerful you are. So yes, I just wanted to stop by and say that. I hope you continue with this channel, or with any other meaningful project, and I hope nothing but the best. :)

@@ExtraEnglishPractice do you give on line lessons ??
Hi! I watched one of your videos which was very helpful about the difference between pronunciation of short vowels "o" and "u". And I thought I was done with these sounds. But a new confusion just popped up. The letter "a" makes three sounds: short a, long a and ah as my book says (actually not mine but my 7 year old daughter 🙂). What this ah sound is? As far as I understand this the sound as in "awesome" or "law". Is it the same sound as in "poppy" or is it different? How about the word father? I hear the same sound in poppy/awesome/father but the transcriptions in all three words are different. I am so confused. Could you please help me to understand this. Thank you
Hmm, I'm not sure what your book is saying. Is it American English? In our accent, I think "poppy", "awesome", and "father" have the same sound, which is that AH sound.
@@ExtraEnglishPractice thank you for the reply. Yes, it's American English. But actually I can't blame the book. It doesn't say that the sounds are different in these words but it also doesn't say they are the same so it's a little bit confusing for me as I am not a native speaker. They also transcribe the short o as /ŏ/ but in the other topic when they talk about what sounds the letter a makes the third sound except long and short a is /ah/. That's how they transcribe it. So why don't they use the same symbol then? Maybe they will talk on specifically this sound in the next level more. If you Google these words, it gives totally different transcriptions though the same pronunciation so that was confusing. But you gave the answer to my question. It's the same sound as I thought. Thank you!
Hello, the word 'beginning' hard or soft? (7mins - 30secs). "When C or G is followed by e, i or y use the soft sound".
It's an exception to that rule, unfortunately!
@@ExtraEnglishPractice Thank you.
Sooo helpful thanks 😄
You're welcome. Thanks for the feedback!
what about this word (beginner) !!

And also I want to inform you that I'm a new person to this job I have been working for 1 and half a month. Our company has instructed us to speak in a formal way in english.
Also, I'm new to this company vocabularies when I started working they were speaking in a formal way
What is happening is ,when i speak to customers I'm unable to get the follow.
Problem as follows:
1)some vocabularies new to me
2) company ask me to speak in formal way
3)lack knowledge about the product.
4)I struck when I use ear burds it's not comfortable to me ,if I use that one ,I am unable to predict my voice speed .
After finishing work , I spoke to many native people. During that time I spoke to many people without a mistake. (Tested my English)
Could you please give me a solution for this ? If it's possible please make a video and share your thoughts sir please big help ?

Thanks for the suggestion!

Por favor es que es para una tarea
👏👏👏
The soft “c” and soft “g” sounds come from palatalizations of those letters in Vulgar Latin. If an English word has a hard “c” or hard “g” before “e,” “i,” or “y,” that means the word has nothing to do with Latin (at least not Vulgar Latin). Why is the English language so screwed up? Probably because England might be out of place compared to many other European countries!

يابنات ما فهمت ولا شي😂😂
I really enjoy watching your videos I love you girls
Gift , girl , are followed I but it's g not j..how do I explain which is against the rule or trick..my kid is reading sound wise correct but rule wise she gets few such words wrong..
Unfortunately, English has many exceptions like these!
hello hope you are well,I have a question please I knew how I read but I have difficulty to write English, do you have any idea you can help me. thanks
Practice as much as you can! You will keep improving. Good luck!
Madam ,
I have a doubt
1)(Just because you haven't got it all figured out.)
I saw this sentence someone who posted on Twitter .I normally I studied present perfect tense example:
1)I have done my work
2)he has broken the window
3)they have forgotten
4)we have taken this room.
Is this sentence is correct and can we use like these? Could please tell me how to use?how it's coming?
Yes, those sentences are correct. We have a couple of videos about the Present Perfect tense, so hopefully those can help. Just look for them on our channel.
@@ExtraEnglishPractice Thank you so much Ma'am
My Madam,
Could you please tell me ?Are these Sentences correct?
1)I mistakenly sent the message
2)I sent mistakenly
3)I sent the message mistakenly
4)I separately sent the documents
5)I sent separately
6)I sent the documents separately
The verb "send" needs an object, so sentences 2 and 5 don't work.
@@ExtraEnglishPractice thank you so much madam big help god bless you
Hi i'm from Indonesian, thanks for your great video
But i want to ask, why "Beginning" is G Hard Sound even after "G" is "I"?
I have same doubt
I found myself smiling when you guys made the sentences, I learnt a lot too, thanks a bunch.
You're welcome! 😊😊
@@ExtraEnglishPractice I am interested in pronunciation and intonation. It’s a big topic.
Ma'am, Is the below sentence grammatically correct
(Son is asking his Mom:
is there any food leftover ? )
Thank you for teaching and nice to see you again..
Thanks!
Mereka kalem banget
Thank you for the wonderful video. I had a question about the word "Beginning". I think since it is g+i, it may be categorized as soft sound.
That does follow the rule, but unfortunately English has many exceptions!
Thank you very much! I have learned a lot
That's great!
Hi I'm form india your classes are very helpful to everyone 😊 you both rock English
Your way of teaching is awesome that even a beginner can understand
Can u please do video about "tell me about yourself" the question always asked in intrrviews
Why girl not as jirl
Because it doesn’t come from Vulgar Latin (and maybe not any other type of Latin either).
Thanks for your perfect explanation, but I'd like to grab your attention that you've made a slight mistake by putting the word "beginning" under the wrong place of the hard g. It should be under the soft "g" side as it is flowed by " i".
Beginning has a hard G sound in it as an exception to the rule.
Hey I'm so happy to see you again here, my great teachers... Thanks for this one, I'm waiting for upcoming lessons.🌹
Thanks! :)
Thanks sweet ladies I like you ....please keep posting we missed your videos.kisssss meriame.
Thanks. We'll try!
Help me with the word ‘america’ and ‘tour’.
America is pronounced Uh - MER - i - kah
Tour can sound like TOOR or TORE, depending on where the speaker is from.
