Fun video, but... How can you learn English pronunciation from a person where the word Doe, as in female deer, and door have no audible distinction...? Also McCartney has a very distinct "R" in there.
@accentology 8 күн бұрын
Yes, well English isn’t easy for that reason! Also there are so many different regional accents - in our accent you don’t pronounce the ‘r’ in McCartney, but most Americans and Irish people, and some accents in England would! 😅 In our accent the female deer, a doe, is pronounced differently than ‘door’, but in more Northern accents it’ll sound the same!

You're suggesting then that all teachers of the English language must be those that speak with the Queen's English accent?
@accentology 8 күн бұрын
@@theTerriberg not at all - I was making the opposite point! It’s not only confusing because of non-matching spelling and pronunciation, but there are so many different accents in the UK! Obviously when we teach English we base it on our southern accent but that doesn’t mean it’s the one correct accent!

@ahmed-mauad 2 ай бұрын
This is a myth-there are no actual long and short vowels in English. Take these two words from Cambridge and Merriam-Webster: leaf and live. If you actually measure the length of the vowel sounds, you'd find the vowel in live is longer than the one in leaf. You can also do that with a British dictionary and you'll get the same result So technically, what's supposed to be shorter ends up being longer!
@accentology 2 ай бұрын
Actually this is because there is a voiceless consonant after the ‘ee’ in leaf, which shortens the vowel! You’ll hear therefore that the ‘ee’ in LEAVE sounds longer than in ‘LEAF’. So you need to factor in whether the consonant after the vowel is voiced or voiceless!

I like the video . Do you know if Spanish is a time stressed or syllable stressed language? I’ve studied Spanish in various courses, and many, like Michel Thomas, really emphasize the stress being elongated. However, I saw a clip in Spanish that said that the syllable length doesn’t get longer but just gets louder which surprised me. You might know
@accentology 7 ай бұрын
Hi and thanks for the question- Spanish is syllable -timed. I have heard Michel Thomas’s Spanish and to me it has always sounded a little more stress-timed than what Spanish normally is (sounding kore Italian, which is ALSO in theory syllable-timed but has more of a sing-song quality with syllables that do sound longer at times!!) Confusing eh!!
@user-ke2mj4wy2f 7 ай бұрын
@@accentology yes the Michelle Thomas pronunciation is incredibly elongated on the stress syllable. I tried saying the stressed syllable in Spanish words at the same length as the other syllables, but just louder and it just comes across as me shouting lol

The non-rhotic accent is so difficult to understand. Did he say "She went to party" or "She went to potty"? And the list of confusing words goes on and on.
@accentology 8 ай бұрын
Haha well it’s all in the length of the preceding vowel! That’s the secret! If it sounds long (paaaaaah-ty) then the likelihood is that it’s the word with the ‘r’ (party), whereas if it’s short it’ll be ‘potty’ - also, in British English the vowel is different in both words, whereas in US English it’s the same (but the ‘r’ is audible to make the distinction)

So I have an Essex accent and I've just learnt that I don't use any rhotic Rs at all, even with vowels involved - feels more natural to me to just put a very slight pause in between the two sounds (for example "her aunt"), though that does feel a little stilted when I focus on it! Never even noticed I do that 😅
