I come to your teaching on the full moon solar eclipse and widen my wisdom to accept that language is deeply and only spiritual. As an GA native, this is mind blowing.
Hello! I have enjoyed your careful explanation, and expect to watch more of your videos in the future. I do have a question: in your examples of yod dropping, most of them were followed by a "u." The only exception listed was the word, "new." Is yod dropping limited to words with a "u" or "ew" sound? If not, what other sounds may the yod dropping precede? Thank you!
I love this topic. I heard some native speakers, particularly from the UK saying "Nothing" with a /k/ voiceless sound at the end of the word and I consider that it is a Yod-dropping? Can you clarify to me?
I'm glad you like the video and found it helpful! The pronunciation you describe in not yod dropping. Yod dropping refers to leaving out the /j/ sound and it is also more common amongst speakers in North America. The example you mention is just a variety of pronunciation - although I must admit it sounds a little odd. Which region are these speakers from?
I can't get this topic. Yod dropping? yod coalessance... I didn't expect that it would be so hard to understand. I can't understand with tables or diagrams, I need shapes of your mouth and articulation to understand the sound better. It's impossible to understand the sound without articulation. And you used so many terms i didn't know earlier, so it was iumpossible to understand without any explanation and articulation. The tables are helpful, when they are joined with tongue and lips position, it's easier to understand then.
Hi Olga! First of all, thank you for joining the premiere chat and leaving a comment! :-) This video covered a rather specific topic that might be more interesting for viewers who study English phonology and teaching (as many of my subscribers do). If you learn English and want to improve your own pronunciation, you could start with my playlist on sentence stress: bit.ly/3VXO6s0 I hope you will find the video there more helpful! Greetings :-)

Hi billie namaste 🙏 from India 🇮🇳
Thank you so much for share this. I don't understand yet how to pronounce words fast as variety. Elsa don't understand me.
