Wouuuuuuuuu Amazing !!! Thank you 🙏🏿 so much Teach Anne !!! One day, a native speaker wasn’t able to enlighten me about the combination “WITH YOU” specifically in the sentence : “WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU ?” I’ve noticed the “SH” sound and that surprised me expecting the “TH” sound with my tongue 👅 between my teeth 🦷. I’ve been trying to mimic the “SH” sound without knowing Why. Your lesson’s got me the informative blessing I’ve been looking for since then. Thank you 🙏🏿 Teach Anne !!!

Hey Ma'am...I like this top that you are wearing.... And your video is enlightening and effectively produces motivation for me to stay focused.

[@haiyen1439]

It's such a useful video. Thanks a lot. Could you help me with the followings. Are they right? 1/ /ʃ/ linking to /j/ ==> /ʃ/ brush your hair ==> /brʌʃər hɛr/ 2/ question /ˈkwɛstʃn /. We can pronounce one of two ways - /ˈkwɛstʃn / with /s/ before /tʃ/ - /ˈkwɛstʃn / without /s/ before /tʃ/

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

I'm glad it was helpful. You're correct that 'brush your hair' will often be said as "brʌʃər." As for question 2, I always note an /s/ prior to /tʃ/.

[@MYOB822]

At 4:26, the captions say "a Jew" (or J sound), which reminded me of Woody Allen in Annie Hall.🤣 (Sorry, couldn't resist).

Hi Annie Marie. Just I was looking for to impruve my listening y speaking. I appreciate it. And I love it.

[@insectpests5976]

Wow!! thank you Annemarie! You've given a detailed account of assimilation of sounds in American English. The one which struggled me a lot is the blending of /z/ to /y/ and /sh/, I felt like my tongue being in a roller coaster! "Where's your daughter" is the one I found more challenging. Again, your tips at the end, are so useful. Thank you again, Annemarie

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

My pleasure! The best practice is repeated practice. That will help you to remember what you learn. I definitely recommend coming back to review when you can.

[@margitiabujamra]

Impressive, you taught something that was impossible, in something we can achieve. You teach with didactics, calmly, wherever we are, your message is understood.

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Very good! Thanks!

[@haiyen1439]

Dear coach. Could you help? are the followings correct? We can pronounce as usual with stop /t/ or assimilation like that /t/ + /g/ ==> /k/ + /g/ hot girl / hɑt ɡərl /==> / hɑk ɡərl / Thanks a lot

[@Speakconfidentenglish]

Thank you for the question. I would say that with assimilation, the final /t/ on hot would sound more like the /g/ in girl.
