Days and Months in English (Are you pronouncing them correctly?)

From Colombia: thanks

[@mustfit]

Thank you for your work, Mike. Could you, please, refine, is there any difference between [-deɪ] and [-dɪ] variants: [sʌndeɪ]/[sʌndɪ], etc?

[@TeacherMikeEnglish]

I've never heard it pronounced the second way.

[@vankhoanguyen3994]

❤❤❤

[@titsl7253]

I found this helpful for me a lot. I've seen some your videos on Facebook, and they were really amazing and informative. Could I ask you a questions, teacher Mike ? My question: In case, I would like to ask someone such as : teachers, elderly people and so on for information, Could I add " Mr,Miss,Mrs,Ms" before their names ? And Could I use this way to you ? Like Mr.Mike ?

[@TeacherMikeEnglish]

It depends on the culture and on the person you are speaking to. If you don't know how to address someone, it's best to ask. You could ask "May I call you ____?" Or "How would you like me to address you?"

[@titsl7253]

Thank you ❤

[@anwarbukhari6178]

Week is weeker than month and years but stronger than a day

I don't know who that is, but I will Google them.

[@dariaIva]

Long time ago, when I studied English at school, We said ...diiiiiiiii instead of ...day. What variant is more correct to pronounce? MonDiiiiii or MonDAY?

[@TeacherMikeEnglish]

I don't think there are any native speakers who pronounce it that way, but I could be wrong.

[@user-ey7zx4ps5t]

Would you answer my questions after being your subscriber sir?

[@TeacherMikeEnglish]

I will usually answer questions even if you are not a Subscriber/Member.

[@markrae1317]

As with all of these pronunciation "guides", this is just how the presenter pronounces things and should not be taken as definitive or authoritative in any way. In the UK, the second day of the week is pronounced CHOOSE-day, and it is more common to pronounce the third day of the week as WED-uns-day. The second month of the year is pronounced FEB-roo-urree.

[@TeacherMikeEnglish]

That may be true, but I am giving you most common pronunciations that you will find in dictionaries or taught in the majority of schools/books.
