@@alexthomas6530 Hi Alex, I’ve watched almost all of your videos, some of them are several times. I’m suffering from my pronunciation and speaking in English. Your lessons are very helpful.

You are a good teacher, I have ever met. I appreciate that.

[@marcoskim8131]

oh, mannn that's a great english video these connections that is created when a native speaks, it's a really interesting thing to study...in my native language, portuguese in a particular reagion called FORTALEZA-CEARÁ we have this THING here too, and that make us be different from the rest in our country... here we really eat the words, some sounds ....great class dude

[@linhdau7418]

Your lesson is very useful to me. I practise every day and combine with Google Translate to test my speaking. It enhances my pronunciation a lot. Hope to see more your lessons in the future

[@nuoxu2860]

I'm learning french lately and am troubled a lot by the liaison rules in the pronunciation. KZbin recommended this video and I found it super helpful. This is truly amazing to be able to reverse engineer the pronunciation rules in oral English which most people took it for granted. Thanks Alex!

[@AngelFlores-bi5xw]

French is another thing, man.

[@rousselinpierrelouis7813]

Everything in French is based on logic. There is a pattern to follow. verb conjugations are the big deal!

Bonne chance dans ton apprentissage du français 👍

[@millennial8441]

I am a Portuguese native speaker and the most hard thing to me are all the English vowels. All the possibilities of vowel sounds for hat, het, hit, hot, hut, high, hey, and how are terrible. And I often cannot differentiate man from men when spoken. Hard stuff.

[@maplestory2723]

I'm loving your channel!!! How about one on the difference in vowel enunciation between the chinese accent and native english accents? Chinese vowels are a lot shorter and choppier and that's one major area of difficulty when speaking english

Thanks for your explanations! In my case I'm from Argentina and la (S) sonora es difícil para mi, en especial cuando está delante de una consonante.

[@alexthomas6530]

Welcome! The /s/ sound is made in the same place as the /t/ sound. When I was a kid, actually, I had a hard time saying /s/ correctly too! Once I realized that my tongue should be in the same place for /s/ and /t/, it became a lot easier.

[@raquelanaliagiubergia4867]

Thanks very much, I'll try it.

너무 좋아요. 한글 자막도 설정할 수 있으면 더 좋겠지만 커넥팅 리딩 연습하기에 이만한 비디오가 없는 것 같아요. 차근차근 귀에 쏙쏙 잘 들어오게 설명해 주셔서 감사합니다. 구독했어요. 최고예요.❤^^😊

Your video is really helpful for me. I learned English pronunciation through your video. Your explanation is very easy. So I can understand well. Thank you very much. To add one more thing, I wish Korean subtitle.😅

What would Americans feel if I pronounced the -t- in words like 'little' and 'metal' using the normal hard T sound? Would that be unnatural? Because this flap T sound is too hard for me. Thanks!

[@alexthomas6530]

Good question! It would just sound a little strange, but not wrong. Everyone would understand you and most people wouldn't consciously notice the difference.

I don't understand 'a couple of ears of corn' meaning.

Good question! "Corn" in English is uncountable. You can't say "buy me two corns." An "ear of corn" is countable. It means the part of the corn plant you can eat.
