The glottal stop can also be found in American English. Many years ago, I watched an American TV series about accidents or flood in which Gil Gerard, an American actor in "Buck Rogers", was the host of the TV programme. He spoke English with clear American accent in that TV show. In one of the series he said [bʌʔn] for "button". Hence, I know that the glottal stop is not only employed by people from England.
Thank you for the video! Is using glottal stop at the end of words in a sentence/ an utterance considered a bad habit? For instance, "I know that (tha?)" or " forget about it ( i?)"
@@michelleleo2505 To speak correctly, like any native British person, including me, you should use glottal stops the way I demonstrate in this video. Note that in the video I also mention a 'bad habit' involving the glottal stop, which is common among native speakers but should not be imitated. Remember to join my school!

By far the best teaching on the glottal stop (British English). Way more succinct and clearer than other videos in RUclips. Thanks !

No, I recommend it. You will sound more like a native. In fact, nobody will really notice.
I love it!!!
Good sir😘
You're genius!!
Are glottal stops used in RP?:)
Hi Michelle, Could you give me an example of someone who you think speaks 'RP'?
@@SpeakBritishEnglishTV Actually ALL my teachers believe they speak RP:). What I mean by RP is maybe BBC English.
