      Thanks for the video Eliot! Question: some British people have a very particular 'r sound', with a lot of tongue against their teeth. Is this any specific kind of accent and when/how do they use it? Thanks!

    I like how every time you give an example of linking-R, you say "for example", which contains linking-R.

    How to speak in cursive. I'm not a native English speaker. But i speak it almost perfect, I've lived for 6 years in the US and when watching Sherlock Holmes and lots of people on the internet I noticed that they add r in certain words. Most notably "drawring" and "sawr", it really jumped out to me, thanks for the great explanation.

    I know, I know, I was wondering about that one! First time I heard the intrusive 'r' was when Sting at his concert in Berlin was introducing one of his songs: "The next song [r] is about..." That sounded super-strange to me but now I get what it was! Yay! Thanks!

    • @ETJEnglish
      @ETJEnglish  6 лет назад +1

      That’s not actually the correct situation to do the intrusive /r/. In this situation, most native speakers would connect the final consonant from ‘song’ to ‘is’ . There is no reason to use the /r/ here. I just thought I’d tell you, so you don’t get it wrong in the future

    • @irinaokhapkina1220
      @irinaokhapkina1220 6 лет назад +1

      Right? It doesn't even sound natural between 'ŋ' and 'is', and I wasn't going to use it there, but thanks for pointing that out! I guess Sting being Sting... he can put an 'r' wherever the heck he likes and be cool about it)
      I'm also not a native speaker and surrounded by Americans anyway so my using of intrusive 'r' may let them think that I'm showing off. But perhaps every language has something that only native speakers can take advantage of)))

    @OzyJK69BRs 2 года назад

    This is the video that has helped the most.
    Didn't know that!!
    So, "intrusive /r/" comes when there are two vowels sounds: at the end of one word and at the beginning of another, right?
    And "linking /r/" is when we have the schwa sound at the end of a word and the next sound is a vowel, isn't it?
    Greetings from Mexico.
