thanks you so much, i am from Senegal and my official language is french so the only way i can improve my english is watching your videos and those from Anglo-Link. You both are helping, so kind from you.
Hi Rachel, I've watched tons and tons of youtube English learning/pronunciation videos and i think yours is really the BEST! Thanks so much for the great work!!
You don't need to for unstressed words like in the phrase "What's the news?" In these cases you can press the tongue against the back of the teeth. Make sure the tongue tip isn't at the roof of the mouth or pointed down, then it will sound like a different consonant!
Yes, I lost track of my sentence and made a slight variation the second time!! If you're even in doubt about what I'm saying, you can turn on the subtitles by pressing the CC button and choosing "English - RE - English"
'City' has a flap T. 'Enough' is pretty straight forward. Check out my video 'how to pronounce any word' that will give you resources to see the IPA and the pronunciation of these words and others.
I think most people would make this more of an AA (less of a schwa reduction). But either way, I think the tongue has to come back from being out to make either one of those vowel sounds.

hello Ma'am, this is Santoshi from India I saw ur some videos and really I m delighted to get u and ur spectacular and brilliant English videos .Ur way to teaching I liked so much . really ur way of teaching us excellent .
1 -- no, some people pronounce it voiced, especially if the next word begins with a voiced TH. 2 -- yes 3 -- yes, you can also stop the air in your throat. And yes, Tom is ok! I'll be seeing him today. :)
Some accents, like the Latino one, do say the TH pattern as pure D/T's, so it's possible to find native speakers in America that pronounce "the" as "da", "thought" as "taught" and "thin" as "tin". Some Afro-American accents do that too!
@@ivomoreira42 TH is not available in my language. So to make " TH " sound is really complex. Sometimes we make " TH " sound as " D ". Is it oke if i still keep doing that ?
@@minhphuchoang164 People will understand, but keep in mind that the more accent you have, more things you mispronounce, more difficult is to understand. But if it's just TH, no problem, as I said before: there is a native accent that do it too!
I never thought that it could be so tricky. We use it so much in our daily conversation but it never occurred to me me that there's so much to it in its usage. Great 👍👍. Looks like it's back to the basics again.
I must admit that I can't learn anyrhing with your videos, I know you are the best teacher ever, but i'm so enthralled watching the movements of your mouth and your wonderful eyes that eventually i forget everything and just remember how beauty you are ... =)
I need to say that I've decided to learn without phonetics, but I have been trouble in the middle of the talk because they can't get what I am saying sometimes. I avoided Phonetic and Rachel teaching now see me back here. Rachel is the best step to learn English before start. You are the best
Hey Rachel! I always wanted to know the google´s woman voice! Now, I don´t need anymore because 1´ve found you! Your voice sounds just like the same for me! Such a wonderful voice!!! Thank you for all!!!
I often cant listen the word "THAT" in phrases, still is more difficult for me (I think because this phonetic is not common for Brazilian)! However, I appreciated this video. Thanks for all.
HI, thanks a LOT I watched many of your videos recently, I'm more interested now after this video. I didn't know how mess I was in before I watch your videos. I'm Arabian and I was shocked when I notices some differences in grammar and pronunciation of many words that we used to miss rule them without knowing because - you may say - put the American and British in a mixer and say it's English (you can imagine how mess would it be) and thanks again for reading :)
I like connected speech topics. Could it be that you should've write [ð] instead of [θ]? Thanks Rachel, your videos are always very useful, and it's nice to see that smile in your mouth and eyes.
Hello Rachel. very useful video. I have fast questions. 1- is the (th) in the word (with) always voiceless. 2- you sad ( it wasn't that easy) Is the word (it) stop. 3 - if the word (that and it) if followed by consonant you said stop air by touch alveolar ridge and don't release ( the question can we stop (t )sound in the throat or glottal or velar. Is tom ok. Thank you.Rachel.
Hi Rachel. Thank you very much for all your help and useful information. Your classes are perfect. I have a doubts, when the video is in 2:37 Are you saying "I heard that her team won" or "I read that her team won" ?
Hi, Rachael. Thanks for your videos. I just want to ask if you’ve noticed, just as I have, that the “th” in “that,” “this,” “them,” “there,” etc., gets replaced with a very soft “n” when these words are preceded by words having an “n.” For example, 1. She deserves better than that. Sounds more like. . . 2. She deserves better than (n)hat Although it’s very common to hear this in rapid conversations. Is this usage right and standard? And could you please make a video explaining this? (In fact, this last question could read, “And could you please make a video explaining (n)his?”) 😹😹😹😉
Hi! Thanks for your video suggestion and comment! Yes, I have heard this and do think it is quite common in fast, casual speech. Thanks again and great listening! :)
This is soooo helpful! So it is usually the case that in such sentences when "the" is pronounced as an unstressed word, you don't have to always stick out your tongue, do you? I've been always always confused by how to pronounce such kind of sentence and if the answer is yes, it really solves my confusion!

Hi Rachel. I'm a Brazilian learning English and I love your videos. Thanks so much.
You're welcome Gilberto!
Gilberto Almeida Me too.

A lot of times I hear people saying "DAT (like DEBT)", for THAT.
Some accents, like the Latino one, do say the TH pattern as pure D/T's, so it's possible to find native speakers in America that pronounce "the" as "da", "thought" as "taught" and "thin" as "tin". Some Afro-American accents do that too!

Too much trouble. I say "dat".

Good vídeo thanks 😊.
You're welcome!
Another great video... Thank you Rachel.
I’ve seen “that” being pronounced starting with a /n/ sound lots of times too, but I haven’t quite figured out when that can happen yet.
That was great! Get it? "That" was great. Thanks alot!
Oh my gosh ive learned so much with your tips
thanks Rachel your video is very useful
Hi Rachel. Thank you very much.
Many thanks for your useful lesson! I'm glad to find you here. :)
I think you're right. In normal conversation between native speakers, they would sound the same.
Excelente....
Thanks Alonso!
Great Video! Thanks a lot and keep up the good work!
This is impossíble! I give up. I will be saying the easiest way, that is, with my accent
You're an awesome teacher!
You're awesome!
Thank you!
Hello Rachel. very useful video. I have fast questions.
1- is the (th) in the word (with) always voiceless.
2- you sad ( it wasn't that easy) Is the word (it) stop.
3 - if the word (that and it) if followed by consonant you said stop air by touch alveolar ridge and don't release ( the question can we stop (t )sound in the throat or glottal or velar.

Thank you.Rachel.
Hi Rachel. Thank you very much for all your help and useful information. Your classes are perfect. I have a doubts, when the video is in 2:37 Are you saying "I heard that her team won" or "I read that her team won" ?
an awesome video Rachel, my question is the next; what the different use between that & than???
Nothing better than learn with a native speaker ;)
Hi, Rachael. Thanks for your videos.
I just want to ask if you’ve noticed, just as I have, that the “th” in “that,” “this,” “them,” “there,” etc., gets replaced with a very soft “n” when these words are preceded by words having an “n.”

Youre my best Teacher, thanks)
Very interesting
Thanks!
Thank you very much
Thanks!
My problem is that when I try to pronounce T as D like you when you say literally, beautiful,water and got it.
Thanks for your helpful videos.
+semoo khalifah It's probably a lot like the 'r' sound in your language (non-rolled).
I am learning English....your videos is really good
This video clip made pronouncing "that" easier.
Thank you Rachel
Excellent! Very good.
marco. Shalom.
Please make a video on the transition from s to th like in "what's that". Thanks
Good suggestion!
Sooooo awesomeeee
Thanks Andres!
It's not quite the same as not pronouncing it. We stop the air --- that makes it sound different than if we left it out altogether.
Awesome
Thanks a lot!
This is soooo helpful! So it is usually the case that in such sentences when "the" is pronounced as an unstressed word, you don't have to always stick out your tongue, do you? I've been always always confused by how to pronounce such kind of sentence and if the answer is yes, it really solves my confusion!
Do you have an answer?
❤❤❤❤❤❤ thank you mam
You're awesome. Thank you so much !
