      Yes, and the next logical question is; 'Why don't we spell it like we say it, given the fact that we have a alphabetic character to represent each sound?

    Hi Lucy! I love your videos and use them quite often in my classes as they're so practical and delivered in a fun way! Thank you so much! 🙏 Just a couple of points about this video (which doesn't take away from its general excellence!) - first of all, has it now become acceptable in RP English to pronounce the /ʊ/ sound in book, look and put as /ʌ/, ie. like "buck" as opposed to "book"? Also, I know someone's already pointed out that the plural of life is lives, not loaves, but shouldn't the symbol for those irregular plurals be /z/ rather than /iz/?

    Wonderful video as usual. I guess you already know there is a graphics error in your presentation. I’m a retired speech therapist in the US and I really enjoy your videos. In the United States, I often hear public speakers and politicians in particular exhibiting a phonological processing error called final consonant devoicing; they don’t use voice on final consonants where it should be used. I wonder if that occurs in the UK? President Obama and President George W Bush devoiced their final consonants frequently. Love your work!
