    I think I'm in love. The study of phonetics is one of my favorite branches of the English language, together with probably syntax. I was looking for a cool video to teach pronunciation to one of my students and came across this channel. Already subscribed! thanks Eliott

      One of these mistakes is "do a mistake". The correct expression is "make a mistake".

    I’m in the beginner stage of learning English, feel sorry if I made mistake of my writing;)

  • @ศุภณัฐพงษ์ปรีชา

    I love watching your videos. They do improve my English pronunciation, and your ways of teaching are easy to follow and understand. I used to study English Phonetics, but it's quite hard for me LOL. Anyway, could you make a video about other theoretical concepts in English Linguistics like Pragmatics? If possible, it would be great.

  • @m_____l___
    @m_____l___ 6 лет назад +19

    The words "work", "girl" and (ironically) "word" are so hard to pronounce, aghh... Not to mention "-th" sound, when I read the sentence "We've been through thick and thin" I feel that it sounds like I have a lisp...
    I actually barely use english language in my life (sadly!), never talked to an english native before (like face to face), but I recently discovered your channel and your explanation on how to pronounce words in english accent is very helpful! I really enjoy your videos and I am motivated to practice my pronunciation (although I don't really need it in my life, YET (maybe someday!)) along with your lessons! Keep up the good work, cheers!
    P.S. I might've used too much brackets, haha, sorry!

In the future, I think it would be lovely if I could possibly learn how native speakers use "here you go", "there you are", "here we go", "there you go", "here i come" ......... I heard them all the time but it seems no one can really explain to me what they are in a systematic way. Please help!
