If you transcripts the example words and highlights the sounds that would be more helpful to connect, and when your introducing the Monomthong please highlight the single sound that your talking..when you mark all of them and describing its hard for me to follow, to know which one you are talking at that time.

Very easy to understand, thank you.

[@scott-ish404]

Great vid and chart. Others may have pointed out already that an example for the /ʌ/ sound is missing from it though, as in 'fun' /fʌn/. Anyway, thank you so much for having (re)opened my eyes to it.

[@sajawalkhan7735]

Great! but example of [ʌ] is missing.

[@ssocram70]

¡Gracias!

[@cristianbrito7256]

Outstanding job !!!

[@ramu9375]

You have explained it without a pointer or a stick!

[@peterhind]

Is there a continuity of vowels between the ones that are shown. Can this be used as a framework for understanding regional accents. I ask as I am trying to tone down my North English accent.

[@kevinymagalhaes]

That's what I think too. Isn't that cool how a person master so specific sounds even unconsciously?

[@جعفرالبدري-س5ع]

Really magnificent. I advised my student to follow it.

[@BillieEnglish]

Thank you very much!

[@KeyserTheRedBeard]

[@prasadncalindi]

Dear Madam, I am incredibly grateful for the wonderful video you shared. Your dedication to teaching is truly inspiring, and I wanted to express my heartfelt thanks. I have learned so much from your guidance, and it has been an enlightening experience. I do have a small suggestion, which I hope you will consider with your vast knowledge and expertise. It would be immensely helpful if you could include a word for the "^" IPA symbol. I noticed that in the video, you covered 12 vowel sounds, but there were only 11 examples provided. Additionally, I observed that the symbol "e" was labeled as Open-Mid in the video, while on the IPA chart, it is categorized as Closed-Mid. I bring this up with the utmost respect for your expertise and to ensure the accuracy of the information. Once again, I want to emphasize my gratitude for your teachings. Your ability to convey information in a calm, composed, and soul-touching manner is truly remarkable, and I aspire to speak as eloquently as you do. I have gained a wealth of knowledge from your lessons, and I am eager to continue learning from you in the future. Thank you for your time and for sharing your expertise with all of us.

[@BillieEnglish]

Hello! Thank you for your comment & for watching! I am happy to hear the video was helpful. Yes, I realised afterwards that I forgot one sound and added this plus and example in the description text below. For the sound /ʌ/ the example word is 'fun' :-) In this video I use the symbols of the Adrian Underhill chart and not the IPA. There is one little difference in the use of symbols, in that what I call /e/, the IPA calls /ɛ/ instead. I have a video on the charts and their differences on my channel if you'd like to find out more.

[@spirit1292]

Great video, it took me an hour to completely coordinate my pronunciation with the chart )

Hi, you are amazing. Could you please make a video to elaborate various combination of words which forms these words (similar to plosive and fricative sound videos)

[@BillieEnglish]

Hello! Thank you for your comment! I have a playlist with individual videos on each vowel sound. You can watch it here: kzbin.info/aero/PL2xSrncgBnNYqIKehOXtVxsYiYwuWE-UB I hope you find them useful :-)

[@BillieEnglish]

Thank you so much for your kind words!

[@matthewblasch2154]

I'm a General American speaker, and we have 13 pure vowels. Our extra sound is called the Close-mid front unrounded vowel. It is used in words like May, Day, Stay, and Lay. I found that 7 vowels are identical between the accents. I'll list words for the 5 examples where Received Pronunciation uses sounds that we don't. Hat Bird Yawn Foot Nut

[@saliavanesha]

Yeah I was also wondering about the "but" or "number" from that

Billie it was "fun", which you missed out in the word chart, for this (^) sound, thank you

[@BillieEnglish]

You're right! How could I forget the fun!?? ;-)

Maam i have query about this chart I've search vowel chart at google there are different position of vowels from your chart

[@demonicbeethoven]

Hello, I noticed that you didn't have an example word for /ʌ/ . Would fun work? Another great video. Thanks again for making this content.

[@BillieEnglish]

Yes, this was left out by mistake, you can see it in the description box. 👍

[@demonicbeethoven]

@@BillieEnglish Awesome! I hadn't seen that. My suggestion was more a shot in the dark. Seems like I'm sorta getting a hang of it. Not the least, thanks to your videos.

Thanks, I have been trying to find somewhere that explains the chart to me. After I watched this video, though, I am trying to figure out where "i" is. Or do the British say time, fight, pie different than Americans. I cannot off the top of my head think of an example of the pronunciation of those types of words.

[@BillieEnglish]

Hello! In those words two vowels are combined to form a new sound = a diphthong. I also have a video about those on my channel 😊
