Stop using the glottal stop!

- Would you like to be a smooth speaker of English? This video is all about the pronunciation of the consonant “t”, which some people, including native speakers, tend to completely avoid nowadays, leading to a rather broken-up style of speaking. The technical name for this is the “glottal stop”. In this lesson, I’ll give you a few examples of what I mean, and I’ll demonstrate how to put the “t” back into your pronunciation and achieve a smoother way of speaking. www.engvid.com/stop-using-the...

Thank You very much Madam for your time, greetings from Turkey.
Thanks a Lot ma'am
Good Morning from Barranquilla Colombia South America
Thank you
Thanks so much, Madam.
The best teacher ever! Always explains slowly, clearly, comprehensibly.
And her voice soothes and makes you listen to her again and again.
Thank you for your lessons.
Well put, I agree!
Gill, you are not only the best teacher/educator on RUclips or any social media platform, you are a complete treasure!
We are so incredibly fortunate to have someone like you to educate everyone out there, and the beautiful thing is that it is free!
God bless you Gill, I absolutely love everything about your lessons, so relaxing, informative, helpful, interesting and inspiring.
Take care and best regards, Rob.
Thank you for saying that! As a non-native speaker, I dislike the glottal T sound, it reduces all the beauty of a true British accent.
i can't be agree. it's also rather beautiful so we probably shouldn't be this categorical 🤷♀️
@@Anyasaidso it's my opinion, you have your own.
I agree. The glottal T sounds low-education.
Me too, the T sound is weird to my ears. I rather listen the d sound
Personally I love it.
I'm so relieved 😅 I noticed those glottal stops a lot recently in movies and videos, and I don't like them. German being my first language, I should be used to glottal stops 🤣 but I love British pronunciation just because it's clear AND smooth.
Posh English
So helpful! I'm into British accent and I can notice they use to pronoun the t's heavier than the American people. Thanks a lot for this new lesson! 🧡
My favorite teacher Ms.Gill! I am enjoying your lessons.
What an outstanding lesson! Clear, engaging and to the point. Your voice is perfect too. I guess you were born to teach. Thank you for sharing such talent. Cheers from Argentina.
Your accent is an extra lesson, and I love it. I usually use the glotal stop with "th"...
it is very American and I like it too.
You look adorable in that colour...you are adorable. Best wishes.
Awesome teacher 👏👏👏👍👍👍
Thank you 😊
You are the best teacher ❤
A true English teacher ever! She's amazing and she teaches with her great heart. Impossible not to understand her lessons. Thanks a lot for your dedication to teaching us. God bless you richly.
I fully agree, it souns better with the t sound, but it is so common especially in some movies and its good to train our ears and try to understand the speaches with glottal sounds. Thank you for your advice always preciouse.
Thank you Gill! Your contributions today will outlive you! God bless you!
Always a pleasure to watch your leasons, Gill. You're my favorite teacher by far.
Cheers from Catalonia.
Thank you Gill! I can watch your lessons and listen to your calm voice many-many times!
Thank you for your beautiful pronunciation of consonant "t". I found the beauty of t-sound in the English language. From now on I will stop using the glottal stop.
Sorry (not really) to complicate things but can I add something from my part of the country - Durham. Up here and in fact all over Durham, Tyne & Wear and Northumberland we have a unique way of pronouncing this type of 't' sound. We also use a glottal stop but not instead of the 't' sound like for example Londoners but we keep the 't' and produce a glottal stop simultaneously with it! We do exactly the same with 'p' and 'k' sounds. If you want to know if somebody is from the north east just ask them to say 'later', 'happy' and 'lucky' and you'll see. It's what most people call the 'Geordie' accent. It's probably not wise to try to imitate it unless you're going to live here but it's interesting to hear.
Me, from Brazil, reading that: 🤯😰😭😓☠️
haha, but now seriously, is there any video on RUclips of someone from there saying those words?? I'd really love to listen to it 😂
I always enjoy your lessons, they are very useful and from my view as a non native speaker that it is easier understand words with T sound rather than without it
Great video. Your unvarnished style make things refreshing for viewers. You're a like sanctuary for those who are fed up with the flying animations and sound effects by other youtubers. I could watch your videos on end just to enjoy your soothing voice and peaceful delivery. Thank you Gill! (Hello from Hong Kong)
What an amazing teacher! I can hear almost every single word she said. She really has passion on teaching and a simple way of illustration for explaining things. Thank you Ms. Gill.❤
I love watching your videos! Gill, you are the best teacher 🥰🥰
Thank you very much. I am doing coaching in voiceover and they told me that I do a lot of glottal stops and I wasn't fully 100% sure what they meant even after they explained it to me. These examples have helped me mentally visualize what it means and this will help me with not doing that.
Thanks a lot for this wonderful lesson. I love to hear your explanations made with such a sweet, clear, soft tone of voice.
Thank you for sharing this video. I will be mindful of my speech. Your manner of teaching is refreshing. You always include a lesson in Grace.

Thank you Gill, I had listened that kind of pronunciation but I couldn't being able to understand so good, I thought I was a bad listener, now I understand so clearly what the problem was!!!
Thank you so much. You are a very good teacher.

Hi Gill, a fabulous class. I would have stayed till the last, but I need to catch uo with my work. 😊What a beautiful language English is!
Thank you Gill.
You are amazing! I love your English classes.
It’s so awesome to see this! I told my buddy a long time ago he’d get a good shoulder punch every time he did that dumb glottal stop. lol, he figured it out and sounds like a normal human now. Glad you’re encouraging proper pronunciation. We need to combat this weird epidemic especially in the US!! 🤣
Great lesson.
Thanks for teaching.
Happy New Year, Gill!
You are so kind, Ms. 🌸

Hi Dear teacher thanks very very much for your teachings English
I’m a Brit that’s lived abroad for many years and I love the glottal stop.
The glottal stop is the only feature of my accent that hasn’t softened to global/American English over the years.
I suppose it’s a part of my identity 😅
Thank you for such a wonderful lesson!!
Thank you for the lesson.
Very interesting lesson thank 😊
You are amazing TEACHER .. thank you for your time

You are so wonderful, Gill !!!
Потрясающие уроки!!! Спасибо Вам!!! Посмотрю все. Очень понравился оранжевый фломастер, в тон к шарфику.
Теперь я точно знаю, что преподавала всё верно. Объясняла детишкам (то, что могла) также подробно, как и Вы. Сейчас возвращаюсь к языку и дабы не делать здесь ошибок - пишу по-русски.
Here in the US, we often use the "D" sound in place of the "T" sound. We don't really use the glottle stop.
actually the american pronunciation is full of glotal stops, but the use it before a consonant sound or at the end of a word
But americans don't pronounces T letter in some words, for example: Atlantic, Latin, wanted, international, internet, etc. Is very similar to phenomenal of glottal stop. I'm not native speaker english and this is so hard for listening, when you don't pronounce "T" or when Yes.
Replacing the hard "t" sound with a glottal stop before vowels has actually become a trend in the U.S. lately, too. You can hear interviewers and weather people doing it on t.v., not only at the ends of words but in the middle of them, too. I wonder how long it will take for this fashion to be replaced by some other strange pronunciation trend. What will the next one be?
@anonymoushuman8344 Can you give me some examples? I can't think of what you're referring to. But I'll be listening for it now. What part of the US?
@@alikacerto2280 Listen to the podcast "National Park After Dark". One girl on that podcast consistently says "moun'ain" for "mountain". Drives me bonkers every time.
Thank you very much, Gill. Love from Argentina 🇦🇷

My favorite teacher.
Thank you a lot!❤
Without the t is like casual English but in an interview or formal job, formal English is used. I suppose is better to adapt to our surrounded just to blend in. British Standard English is phonetically beautiful!.
God bless you! From Abkhazia with love.
I quite agree with you. Thanks !
