Speak English FAST, like a native speaker: 3 methods
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 дек 2018
- Ask questions quickly like a native speaker by learning natural pronunciation. When native speakers of English speak fast, the clear boundaries between words disappear and this is what gives the impression of talking fast. In reality, native speakers are not talking faster than normal -- it’s just that the sounds in their pronunciation flow together in the most smooth and efficient way. For this natural, flowing effect to happen in pronunciation there are three important changes in pronunciation that may occur. The first change is that whole sounds in the sentence may disappear completely (“elision”). The second change in pronunciation is that for the sounds to flow more smoothly, individual sounds may shift to a different sound (“assimilation”). And finally, new sounds that are not in the individual words themselves may appear when the sentence is spoken quickly (“intrusion”). No need to worry if that makes learning natural pronunciation seem very complicated; I break everything down for you in this lesson. All you need to do is follow the lesson and repeat after me. I’ll also teach you some IPA (the International Phonetic Alphabet) so that you can recognise the individual sounds of English more easily.

TRANSCRIPT
Hi, everyone. In this lesson we’re going to learn how to speak fast like a native speaker. When you’re learning English and you hear native speakers, why is it that they sound so fast and it’s hard for them to understand? Are they really talking like: “Blub-blub-blub-blub-blub-blub-blub”, or is it something that they’re doing when they pronounce sentences that makes it seem fast, but it’s not really? Let’s look at some example sentences, and I’ll teach you how to speak fast like a native English speaker.
All my question phrases are questions with “Do” or “Did”, and this is them written out in the full sentence, then I have in this column what the sentence sounds like. If we don’t know how to read IPA transcription, here, this is very useful for us. But the problem, when we write out the pronunciation in this way, is we don’t have letters for all the sounds. We don’t have letters from the English alphabet for all the sounds in English, so it’s helpful, but we can still sound slightly wrong if this is all we know about the pronunciation. That’s why I’m going to teach you little bits that we need to know from here, so that you get the correct pronunciation. And this is what, altogether, will help you speak fast like a native speaker.
So, let’s start here, question phrase: “Do you like it?” That’s really slow. If you’re a beginner in English, you can understand it. “Do you like it?” But this is not how native speakers actually speak. It sounds something like: “D-you lie-kit? D-you lie-kit?” What happens is the “Do” and “you” join: “D-you”, “Do you”, and the “like” and the “it” change. The “k” goes to the second… The “k” joins “it”. “D-you lie-kit? D-you lie-kit?” And we can see this also in the IPA transcription. “Ii: kIt”, “də.ju: Ii: kIt”.
What’s also happening, here, in the IPA transcription, if you look here, this is “də. ju”, “də. ju”. This is schwa. “də. ju”. When I write it here, we don’t have any letter in English that can… In the English alphabet that can represent schwa, so that’s why I just put the “d” consonant: “D-you”, “D-you”, “D-you”.
Another… Now, you have to listen really, really, really carefully to hear the difference. “Do you like it?” can also sound like: “Jew lie-kit? Jew lie-kit?” I’m going to say the first one, then the second one: “D-you lie-kit? D-you lie-kit? Jew lie-kit?” You have to listen really, really carefully. So, I suggest you watch this video a few times so that you can start to hear the difference between very similar pronunciations. Here’s the transcription: “dʒU: li: kIt”. The same thing is happening, here, in the two examples: “li: kIt”, but the first part is different. “də.ju”, “dʒU”, “də.ju:”, “dʒU”. “dʒU: li: kIt”.
Let’s look at the next example: “Did you see that?” That’s how a beginner would say it. “Did you see that?” What does it sound like? “Did-yah see that? Did-yah see that?” Am I speaking fast now-“Did-yah see that?”-or am I just joining up the words so that they flow? “Did-yah see that?” If we look at the IPA transcription: “you” becomes “jə”. Although it’s… It looks like the letter “j”, this is the sound for “yah”, together with the schwa. “jə”. “did.jə si: đaet”. Don’t be scared by this; we don’t use this IPA symbol that often, and this is the word “that”. “did.jə si: đaet”. “Did-yah see that?”
Can you hear the difference between the first example and the second example? “Di-jah see that? Di-jah see that?”, “Did-yah see that?”, “Di-jah see that?”, “Did-yah see that?”, “Di-jah see that?” “di.dʒə si: đaet”. “jə”, “dʒə”, “jə”, “dʒə”. “Di-jah see that?”, “Did-yah see that?”, “Di-jah see that?”
I’m Swedish and we are taught British English in school but learn most of our English from tv etc which is mostly American so we get this strange combination with a Swedish accent. I’m currently working really hard to learn British English and these videos are so helpful, thank you so much
I'm from Kosovo and 2 weeks ago we were talking about accent, like differences between american and british accent and the english teacher told us that we learn english in british way, but she pronounces 90% of the words in american accent, I was wondering what on earth she was saying.
MjauDuuude I’m a native speaker only learn the southern English accent like Jade
@@silkycylist Congratulations. 100% correlation👏
I'm from Thailand We are taught British English as well
and most of the book came from Cambridge English
Oh my god 😱😱😰😵 now I understood, why when a native English speaker speak ,I not understand completely?! 😔😥
Dear jade I love and like your accent 😇😇😍😍😘😘
This is good advice. I'm learning Japanese and all of the words just blend together, so often when we speak our native language there is no pause between words.
I am starting my English with engvid now become english learning and it's really helpful for me and changed my life
In the International Phonetic Alphabet, "like" is [laik] and not [li:]. The symbol i: refers to the long vowel in words like "see", "bee", "sea"... The symbol : always refers to a long vowel, like also in [ku:l] (cool).
Even a teacher can make a mistake, she just didn't notice that
You are an excellent teacher. Putting in your best efforts to help us understand .👏👏👏 Thank you very much... And wish you a happy new year

Hi Jade! There's a mistake in the IPA transcription: it says "do you lick it?" instead of "do you like it".
I also noticed that. lai-kit, right?
It actually says "do you leek it?", not "lick".
Gr8 n inspiration to all of us
thank you Doctor jade
A very good video!!! 👌
Nice one
We have been missing you so long, jade~ we can pass through hardship together.
thanks
Hi dear Jade, one question: How I say :"Do you know him?
Thanks for the lesson, Best wishes for 2019.
Jew know him
Happy new year
What I like the most here is Jade's glottal stop.
Me too!!! T-glottalisation at the word ending. Her IPA transcription does not correspond with her pronunciation ... and that's wonderful. Love her accent!
Thanks
great way invented for those who do not know IPA transcription 👏👏👏
Lo que pasa que cuando pronuncias las palabras por separado es un sonido(fonema). y los hablantes cuando hablan desarrollan otro sonido(fonema) o contraen las palabras cuando las juntas en una oración.
Nice drill
