    My journey with English has been a fascinating one, filled with both admiration and disillusionment. As a child, growing up in an era before the internet took over, our understanding of the world, especially the US, was largely shaped by Hollywood movies and news media. The glamour and power projected by American entertainment sparked a deep fascination within me, leading me to diligently study American English pronunciation, hoping to one day be a part of that world.
    However, as I entered adulthood and the internet revolutionized access to information, my perspective on America drastically changed. I witnessed firsthand the country's hypocrisy, its penchant for waging wars, manipulating global affairs, and prioritizing self-interest above all else. The blatant disregard for international cooperation, the reckless printing of money at the expense of other nations, and the blatant exploitation of resources left me feeling disillusioned.
    While I still value English as a vital tool for communication and understanding, my admiration for Western culture has waned significantly. I now see it as a facade, a carefully crafted image that masks a deeply flawed reality.

    Rachel, can you explain the difference between ɛ and e in IPA? I always thought they were the same.

    • @rachelsenglish
      @rachelsenglish  4 дня назад

      Hi! The first symbol represents the EH as in "bed", which is a sound we use in English. It will feel more open than the "closed e", which is used in many other languages (and often sounds closer to EY to American ears). This [e] symbol is sometimes (non-specifically) used to represent EH, but technically that symbol represents the more closed sound that we don't use in American English.

    Oof, as a German I find the american accent so much harder to pronounce than a British accent. In American English everything almost every word in a sentence merges together while in British English it only happens with certain words. British English kinda feels a lot more structured and defined to me and thus easier to pronounce.

    British accent gives me no trouble, but the way Americans pronounce these 2 words is very bizzare.

    I was born and raised in Vermont, USA. I use the 'oh' sound in 'sorry'. According to Merriam Webster, it's the second most popular of correct pronunciations. The word 'sorry' features the Rhotic W. The establishment doesn't teach about the Rhotic W, so I made my own video about it. You could also call it a 'W-colored R'. It's the phoneme we use when we seek to make the R vowel function as a consonant. We actually incorporate the 'er' sound into the W. People from languages that always use the 'trilled R / d/ flap t' may not have any experience producing the Rhotic W and instead produce the standard W.

    Hello Mam,
    I Visited your RUclips channel and noticed it ranks lower than others. SEO seems to be lacking, though your content is fantastic. Wondering why your videos aren't attracting more views? One key factor is insufficient SEO (your videos' SEO score is 5/100%, that's why your video is not reaching out to the people and you do not have many subscribers, views, likes, watch time, and comments. I also noticed that your video thumbnail was good. If you'd like, I can assist you with improving it. I think your RUclips channel will make your dream come true. I am waiting for your response.
