One of the sounds that a lot of people have problems pronouncing is the /v/ sound.
Here are a few words with the /v/ sound.
"love" /lʌv/
"have" /hæv/
"live" /lɪv/
"every" /ˈɛvri/
"very" /ˈvɛri/
"move" /muːv/
"serve" /sɜːrv/
"never" /ˈnɛvər/
Remember that pronunciation is physical and if you are making mistakes with this sound you need to think about what you are doing physically with your lips and teeth.
The most important thing to get this sound right is to put the top teeth on the bottom lip as you voice the sound, like this.
If you don’t do this right it might sound like a /w/
It is a paired consonant so it is also similar to the /f/ sound. The only difference is /v/ is voiced and /f/ is unvoiced.
To practice the /v/ sound I have prepared a text for you that uses this sound a lot in a variety of words. I will read it out loud for you then you can rewind and read it with me.
