Can you make a video on the difference between a diphthong and a vowel glide? Especially for people learning the Spanish Language. What does strong or weak vowel mean? Is a diphthong a subset of vowel glides?
Video request - Discuss consonant blends. I just learned English has at most 3 phoneme blends (I'm sure there a some rare exceptions.) Spanish has on average 2 consonant. blends. This poses some challenges for Spanish speakers. They are not use to sounding 3 consonants in sequence. Also, certain 2 letter blends don't happen in the Spanish language. For example, st at the beginning. Now, I know why some Spanish speakers put a vowel sound in front of words starting with st. e-study instead of just study. When certain combination don't exist in the native language, the speaker either adds a vowel or deletes a consonant from the blend. Can you discuss these problems from the point of view of a Spanish speaker AND and English speaker?
I have a doubt. Can you explain why the /l/ and /n/ sounds in 'bottle' and 'button' are nucleus? So far, I have been thinking that only vowel sounds can act as nucleus.

nasal consonants are so vowel-like that there are entire songs using only nasal sounds

Most of the time it is a vowel. But, it can be a syllabic consonant.
