You're certainly a best ever known teacher.. purposely, willfully and willingly You're explaining it ❤❤

[@changehealthcaresolutions-8168]

I see that you are the best Teacher, I know, as a PRONUNCIATION COACH. You teach us how native speakers talk so we become able to understand them.

[@BillieEnglish]

Thank you! 😃

[@MasambaKalaba-xo4oi]

Oh my goodness!!! You're our English Godesse which means that we gotta actually pray to you as our English savior, you have been juicing up our level about speaking English keep up the good work!!!

[@BillieEnglish]

Not sure about goddess, but I'd happily be your teacher :-)

[@name3583]

​@@BillieEnglishTeacher, can I ask a question about English?

[@johnlie8586]

Hi again, Billie, You slowly speaking is the most important assimilation!! Millions, thanks for you wonderful lesson,

[@germano8182]

I'm addicted to your videos. So didatic for me as an english learner! The first rule "n before p,b,m" remembered me a gramatical rule in portuguese that we learn when we are kids: "before P and B, we only put M" (we don't have M and M together within words, so it's only before P and B). It seems clear that both rules exist for the same reason: phonetic sounds. But in portuguese the graphemes are quite similar with the phonemes, what doesn't happen in english. Thank you for your videos, they are helpping me a lot.

[@othmanbouzidi6856]

I wish that i found your channel long before

I would love to say thank you SO very much for your knowledge and time. I much appreciate you. I wish you were an American Accent specialist. Cuz I learn and speak American English.

You’re the best. Thank you very very much.

Hello there. May I please use your ( th + s ) as an example of my video?

[@ayubmuhammad534]

Plz guide about difference in progressive and retrogressive assimilation

[@markgoestofrankfurt]

important to point out these are features of casual or informal rapid speech as spoken in the UK, esp. Estuary English SE England, and frowned upon as incorrect articulation for more controlled, careful, formal speech in more educated circles.

[@BillieEnglish]

Yes, very true! Thank you for adding that. Unfortunately, some ways of pronunciation still carry a certain association and connotation for people. As someone who's lived in Manchester for a long time, I don't mind if you speak.like that though! 😉

[@MehrobshohMirzoaliev]

can you halp me pleas about this sentenses

[@shyambaranwal727]

Hi Billie, I am Shyam from India. Assimilation beautifully explained.. Thanks so much for the post 👌👌👍🙏

[@BillieEnglish]

My pleasure 😊

[@CamillaBookTok]

Hi. I have a longer question for you. Is it possible for people to say (pipbul) When they pronounce pitbul, which is a case of regressive assimilation of place? Thank you for your answear.

[@easy6english-lf7rj]

Teacher Billie.I just want to ask you a question .Does the assimilation heppen only in consonant sounds?What about vowel sounds.What do we called the linking process between them?❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@youstinas.daoud10]

Thank you Billie for all your amazing videos 💕💕

[@BillieEnglish]

You are so welcome! Thank you for watching :-)

[@salemahmed3122]

Great lesson!!!. Can you offer me more samples or another resourse ?

[@ΣταθουλαΜπροτζακη]

GREAT WORK

[@علاءعرابى-ت4م]

Thank you for helping me because I have an exame after two weeks

[@BillieEnglish]

All the best for your exam!

[@SalmaBoutemimi]

Hi Bellie i was wondering why didn't you provide the difference between progressive and Regressive assimilation

[@OrgullosamenteAmericanista]

I loved It 😎❤️

[@merlinamartorell5687]

Billie. I am cursing fonetics II in Argentina and I want to know what happens when /n/ is followed by (for example) /i/ as In "an interview: does that /n/ becomes some different sound?

[@BillieEnglish]

Oh I am sorry to hear you have such a hard time with phonetics ... don't curse it, I'll be happy to help: so, the /n/ from 'an' doesn't change into another sound, but it most likely links up with the following word. You might find my other video on 'catenation' useful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYKWZ2ykZd59l8k

[@urluvemia7050]

We have a reporting coming up in my subject, English Phonology and the Art of Speaking. My prof. told me to report about "ELEMENTS OF SPEECH", can you tell me what are those? Pleasee

[@BillieEnglish]

Does he mean pitch, pace, pause, tone and inflections?

[@r.barakat8758]

Many thanks for your fabulous lesson!!! But how about "Sandwich". Is it pronounced as "saMwich"? Am I right?

[@BillieEnglish]

Yes! Most people will pronounce it like that when speaking fast 👍

[@NirajPancholi-n4b]

Do you teach British pronunciation or American in these examples? Because I think British pronunciation is different for hangbag compared to American? Thank you

[@mahdimohammadi9612]

Hi dear Billie, I couldn't find any clip on "Chunking"! Is it coming soon? Thanks indeed.

[@CamillaBookTok]

Hi. Is it tue that when there are two vowels next to each other - as in see again, people tend to insert a linking r here to join two vowels smootly?

[@yassirhassan6746]

such a great explanation, thanks.

[@noraimahacmad8985]

thank you maam .

[@LuceTheStrange]

Useful 🙂

[@ossital1808]

thanks for your hard work

[@linguist.829.]

Really like ur tuitions

[@mithridatesi9981]

Does these assimilation patterns work with American English too ?

[@amirahamdy9433]

thank you! it is a very useful video

[@professorBonna]

Nice

[@MuhammadSaleem.233]

Quick revision before exams

[@abusaeed276]

You are good from my boring professor.Thank yoi billie.

[@raishahid1861]

Mam you are Amazing

[@MawuliAmewornu]

Must one pay attention to this when speaking or it just occurs naturally when you speak fast?

[@BillieEnglish]

It should occur naturally. However, when you learn English as a foreign language you may pronounce words without linking them in this way.

[@beatrizTV09]

Gracias Pato! 👍🏻

[@ryoyaenglish]

Thank you for your instructive video. I'm a Japanese student, who majors in linguistics and studies English. I have a question about "have been". Can we apply an assimilation analysis to this words? Does the labio-dental "v" change to the bilabial "b"?

[@BillieEnglish]

Hello there! Thank you for your comment and question! I think it's possible for the v to change to be, but I think most of the time it'll still be there and you can actually feel it because the too teeth touch the bottom lip when forming the v sound. To really prove it you would have to record a bunch of people speak and then look at the sound signal. I hope this helps!
