For a non-native English speaker as I am, these videos benefit me a lot and they provide authentic speech to my students. I really appreciate Rachel's works.
Thank you, it's helpful for someone like me who doesn't know how to say it properly(because of the R sound), I like the explain on the movement of the tongue and jaw so that I could get my pronunciation clearer.
I love you RACHEL'S.. you are my best English teacher .. because I am French, and I'm bad in English since I look at your védeos I start getting better
Hi Zoe, in 'entertainer' -- the first T can be dropped (we can drop T's after N like in 'center' or 'internet'). Yes, I can see how some native speakers would drop the schwa syllable in 'vulnerable' -- both 3 and 4 syllables work for that word. Best, Rachel
Oh my gosh...Rachel, it looks like you are very passionate about this, but I am really struggling to think of a situation where anyone would use these videos ever. But, keep following your dream.
Really? There are hundreds of people for whom English is not their first language and who use these videos as reference and to finesse their pronunciation. There are ESL teachers who use them in their classrooms as a teaching aid. Just look at the comments people leave. These videos are useful to many people.
Curious, I always say 'tumoro' (7M-English, u = 'mud'), o = 'poke', r = vowel \er\). I don't use 'awe' sound at 2nd \o\. I say 'tumoro' not 'tumʌro' (ʌ = 'awe'). Either one is correct and thus both spellings are correct using 7M-English where you say what you spell and spell what you say (Yq seε wut yq spel and spel wut yq seε.) q = \oo\, u = \hug\, ε = \ee\.
However, in the Longman Pronunciation Dictionary, the American pronunciation is /tə ˈmɑːr oʊ/, which is the same as Rachel's. I think LPD always adds the colon (ː) to the /ɑ/ because it considers that every vowel has always a certain length (except for the /i/ which sometimes loses its colon due to "happy tensing", etc.).
Hi, Rachel! I have a video response but I don't know how to upload it. Will you please help me? Since I've been watching these videos my doubts about the accurate pronunciation of certain words have been cleared up!
Hi Luis, cool! Unfortunately, YT took away the Video Response feature recently. Just upload the video to you YT and send me the link, I will add it to my 'video responses' playlist. :)
Hi Rachel! So I got this words trouble that needs your help! Words are "ENTERTAINER" & "VULNERABLE". I usually hear people say the first with the flap t as "en-ner-tein-ner", and with the second one: drop the schwa after the "r" it becomes "vuhl-ner-buhl" So, is that true? Or did i just mishear? Thanks!
Hi Rachel, just wanna confirm if you link /m/ to both /ə/ and /ar/? I seemed to hear some people only link /m/ to /ar/, so I heard a distinct /tə/ rather than /təm/. Would you please explain that? Thanks!
Hi! Here is the IPA for this word: [ˌɪn əɹˈspɜɹs] - you can listen to native speakers saying this word using YouGlish.com: youglish.com/pronounce/intersperse/english/us?
Rachel, according to dictionary . com (us pron.) the pronunciation is: /təˈmɔroʊ, -ˈmɒroʊ/ . And here you say the stressed "o" is a "a" as in father... Could you please clarify this? :)
Noticed that you pronouce it tahmahrow, which is heard in southern states. Being from NY and having college educated parents, I was taught to say it as toomahrow. The pronunciation was also taught on PBS, our local education channel. Those who now use your example would be using a.. how should I put it... a "gang-speak" version, spoken in neighborhoods where children were not as interested in school as they were of hanging out in the streets.
This is what I've noticed with where they pronounce tomorrow in what way: "To-ma-row" ("ma" rhyming with "ha", row rhyming with "crow") is typical East coast pronunciation. "To-ma-ruh" ("ma" still rhyming with "ha", except now it rhymes with "huh" at the end) is in some East coast circles, parts of NY. I can hear Danny DeVito pronouncing it that way "To-mor-row" ("mor" rhyming with "store", row rhymes with "grow") is more Canadian pronunciation, can hear Michael J. Fox pronounce it that way "To-muhr-row" ("muhr" sounds about halfway between "bar" and "bore", but row still rhymes with "grow") is typical Midwest US pronunciation
Thanks for your reply. But I don't think you are right. Two online English teachers - one from UK and the other from the US - say "What number president of the country was X" and I think I agree with them. "What number" is the question you ask to get an answer with an Ordinal number - 5th, 9th 38th, etc. What number President was Geogre Washington? He was the first President.
When I worked with Americans, I often heard they said "see you tomorrow" and it seemed to me like they dropped the first syllable which was "to" it sounded to me like "see you 'morrow" or they didn't pronounce the letter "t" and made schwa sound before "morrow". Could you explain me what they said for real?
Hi rachel,, i'm jasika from Bangladesh. i can not speak english... please please help me to improve my enghish. i'm waiting for your reply. plz help me...............
+elias montez The word TO can start with a flap T (ruclips.net/video/yWV6gMhMOyM/видео.html), and so can 'tomorrow'. This is a very similar position to the N sound, so it can sound like the beginning is dropped. You've got great ears! Imitate it the way you hear it!
How do you frame a question to get this answer? X is the SEVENTH President of the country. Now, how do you frame a question to get this answer? It cannot be “How manieth President of the country was X. “What was the ordinal number of X’s Presidentship? sounds odd. How about "What number President of the Country was X? Thanks for your help.
I LOVE you. Your accent is so sexy and beautiful. My English has gotten better since I started watching your videos. God bless you! Rachel ROCKS! Greetings from Brazil.

Hi Rachel can you pronounce this three words?retain certain content I just a little bit confused about t&n cluster pronunciation.
Hi Rachel!
So I got this words trouble that needs your help!
Words are "ENTERTAINER" & "VULNERABLE".
I usually hear people say the first with the flap t as "en-ner-tein-ner", and with the second one: drop the schwa after the "r" it becomes "vuhl-ner-buhl"
So, is that true? Or did i just mishear?
Thanks!
Thaks for a good video
Thanks A loT !!!
Hi Rachel, just wanna confirm if you link /m/ to both /ə/ and /ar/? I seemed to hear some people only link /m/ to /ar/, so I heard a distinct /tə/ rather than /təm/. Would you please explain that? Thanks!
Hi! Definitely link the M to both! The more smoothly you can glide from one sound to the next in American English the more natural you will sound!
Thank you a lot :) I'm Thailand and i 17 :-P
I didn't skip it, but I did reduce it. I have a video on that! watch?v=IrboW25dEtU
Hi Rachel! How do we pronounce HELPFUL? That word is kind of hard form me to pronounce. Thank you.
Hi, Rachel . i am grateful for the lessons.
How do you pronounce the word "intersperse" ?
Hi! Here is the IPA for this word: [ˌɪn əɹˈspɜɹs] - you can listen to native speakers saying this word using YouGlish.com: youglish.com/pronounce/intersperse/english/us?
Hi Rachel! I cannot link the "th" in "watch the", i cannot speak this phrase fluently, it's so difficult to me, can you please help me?
Thanks!
Rachel, according to dictionary . com (us pron.) the pronunciation is: /təˈmɔroʊ, -ˈmɒroʊ/ . And here you say the stressed "o" is a "a" as in father...
Could you please clarify this? :)
I will come tomorrow.
To-MAH-row! Not to-MORE-row. To-more-row is how Canadians say it.
From where the schwa name is coming from ? what does it means ?

It sounds like they just reduced the 'to' of 'tomorrow' in an extreme way! This can be common in casual spoken English!
@@rachelsenglish Okay I get it now. Thank you so much for your reply, I appreciate it!
eres muy buena, Rachel

How do you frame a question to get this answer?
X is the SEVENTH President of the country.
Now, how do you frame a question to get this answer?
It cannot be “How manieth President of the country was X.
“What was the ordinal number of X’s Presidentship? sounds odd.
How about "What number President of the Country was X?
Thanks for your help.
You even skipped are in the sentence "What are you gonna do tomorrow?". When Americans skip are in a sentence?
How to pronounce "helpful" ? - Please
I LOVE you. Your accent is so sexy and beautiful. My English has gotten better since I started watching your videos. God bless you!
Rachel ROCKS! Greetings from Brazil.
my brother cant speak english
"Which president of the country was X?"
is tomorrow any good for you 👍👎👍
Pronounce is to maa row
(To•more•oh) I live in the north, and this is all I have ever heard it as. Is that ok? I always thought that(to•mar•oh) is what the dumb south people say.
I live in the north and have never once heard to-more-oh
Alyssía must be the state.
Everyone in California pronounces it "to-mah-row". I think people that say "to-more-row" are either stuck up snobs or Canadians.
