    The way you teach that's really fascinating for me to make my pronunciation to next level.It is essential for us to learn phonetic but l am facing a bit hardship in prouncing the word correctly but lt will be better for us if you teach us phonetic by the same process as you are teaching individual.

      Thanks for your comment, Muhammad. I don't intend to make a video specifically on phonetics, because that would be quite a lengthy video and this channel is meant to just provide short snippets of information, but I will try to explain the sounds I'm using in each video. If you would like to learn the phonetic system that I use in my videos in a very systematic way, may I suggest that you schedule a one-on-one lesson with me? I've put my contact information in the description for each video. Thanks for watching! 🙂

    Thanks for this snippet. Getting tag/tech right should be easier now :) Today I learned about this idiomatic Scottish word _tartle_ - how would I make it super-clear against _turtle_ ? (the mouthful of -rtl- put aside)

    • @pronunciationsnippets

      Well, for "tartle" your jaw is going to drop into an /ah/ sound--it should sound like "tahr-tul", but on "turtle" your jaw is going to stay in neutral position--it should sound like "ter-tul." Hope that helps!

    How does this short e compare to the i sound in bit?

    • @pronunciationsnippets
      @pronunciationsnippets  3 месяца назад

      Thanks for your question! The short /e/ has a slightly lower tongue position than the short /i/.

    I arrived here because I've been hearing so many people pronounce short "e" like short "a" .. like "axpertise instead of expertise, axpact instead of expect" etc. It's been driving me bonkers. These are native English speakers btw.

    • @pronunciationsnippets
      @pronunciationsnippets  3 месяца назад

      Yikes! I agree--some of the variations I hear from native speakers are really puzzling. How do they avoid having to repeat themselves all the time when they talk on the phone?? 😉

    Hello, I am writing from Turkey. Can you explain the difference between short 'o' and short 'u' in a video? Thanks in advance.

    • @pronunciationsnippets
      @pronunciationsnippets  4 месяца назад

      Hi Ali--Yes, I'm happy to put that on my list! 🙂

      @@pronunciationsnippets oh yeah that would be so nice if you could do a video on these sounds. For example, hot vs hut, cop vs cup, father vs other etc. The short u sound in the word 'other' is for some reason so tricky to pronounce. Thank you!
