5:19 technically correct, but NOT how we pronounce the word, at least here in America. We pronounce it just how Sanghuk pronounced it, so I do not appreciate that the "official" pronunciation was used to make him think he was wrong, when he was right. NO ONE in the States will walk around saying com-FERT-able instead of COMF-terble.

@Falon Perry Well, finances are the biggest issue for me. Sounds like we have a similarity there! I used to live in Redmond, WA, and I remember seeing brand new homes being built that were so tiny, had little to no yards around them, and were at least $1 million. There could absolutely be other places in WA that are cheaper, like the western part of the state, but I was living with my parents at the time so I couldn't stay even if I wanted to when we moved. But money would be a big factor if I ever thought about moving back. Same with CA. CA is so expensive that it's never crossed my mind to return. Also, I simply don't miss it all that much. I like traveling too, but I've never been one for the beach, so I don't miss it. I miss the forests, mountains, islands of Puget Sound, and yes, even rain in WA.

These 2 are big personalities. I worked with a Korean woman for 12 years that came to the US in the 80's. She learned English the hard way, by personal experience and watching TV. I worked with her a lot on short and long e's and ih. She had a lot of trouble with some sounds and I coached her on when to leave her tounge flat, when to tuck the tip behind her bottom teeth, when to push it up under her top teeth, when sounds come from your throat, etc. I worked with her a long time on saying refrigerator. She could always get the first r in a word, but pronounced it as an L if there was more than one. I finally just told her to say fridge. You almost need a fluent speaker to work with you and help you on the little things. These 2 were close enough most of the time, at least close enough to be understood. That's all you really need. There are too many different English accents to hold anyone to a high standard.

Onomatopoeia means words made up to represent a sound. In korean you say things like "bogeul bogeul" if something is boiling, right? In English, we have words like "sizzle" when something is frying in a pan. There are plenty of animal onomatopoeias and you can find ones in comic books too! Like "BAM, BOOM, POW!"

The only Korean onomatopoeia I know is "kong", because of the joke I heard someone say, which was "Q: What do you call a king that falls over? A: King Kong", with "kong" being the Korean onomatopoeia for falling, kinda like the English words "kerplunk" or "crash" (I'm sure there are others, but I can't think of any more on the top of my head at the moment lol).

1:11 They both technically got it right if you pronounce it the American English way. "Twenty" in American English goes through an omission of the second "T" to make speaking more efficient in our fast-paced city lives. Both ways are correct and pronouncing the second "T" is more correct, but in terms of American English, you will more often hear the second "T" omitted here in the States (depending on where you live). Because of this, I don't like that they were corrected. They should have been told that both pronunciations are correct.

There are so many vowel/consonant combinations in English that require your mouth to do gymnastics to say them correctly.😅

The problem is made harder by the fact that English spelling and prnounciation do not map onto each other as well as in many other languages. Let a foreigner learn Swedish to the extent that they have studied English, and they would pronounce previously unknown Swedish words much better than what we are seeing and hearing here.

Both of you, your pronunciations weren't bad. There are some words that have different pronunciations that are perfectly fine, especially in different parts of the world. One such word is mischievous. Some say mis-chee-vee-us; others say mis-chif-us. Even aluminum (a-loo-min-um) is pronounced differently in the UK and former colonies. There they say ala-min-i-um, and the word is also written differently: aluminium.

Then, there are all the different 'accents' or dialects, which increase the many inconsistencies & tricky pronunciations found in English. It also has a plentiful supply of homonymous words that make it even more challenging to learn. I think these two did really well because I could understand them & that's all that is needed, really. I feel confident that their English is *100% better* than any attempt I could make at speaking Korean. As for reading Hangul, well, I would not know where to start but would love to try...!!

"I'm told". That says it all. You are always looking for someone to obey. People are just being kind to you because they pity you.

I doubt most people from the U.S.A. would know what "Onomatopoeia" means... I remember having that as a vocabulary word in 10th grade, circa 1972...Bing, Boom, Bang which were highlighted on the Batman TV show....

_(note: This comment is referring to the GenAm accent, not regional/dialectical variations, of which there are many.)_ They said "twenty" in a more natural/native way than the "correct" version. Generally speaking, unless we're emphasizing something, we rarely actually fully pronounce the "t" in most contexts. It's more of an "n" sound or a glottal stop than a fully aspirated and separate "t" sound (it's called T-glottalization). We tend to swallow/cut off the full "t" sound. If somebody says "twenty" to you the way that correction did -- with the fully pronounced second "t" -- it's likely to come across as someone being upset or a jerk. And then there's more native-speak quirks, like our tendency to pronounce "probably" as "prawbly" and either slur or completely drop the middle syllable -- again, unless we're being pedantic out of anger or to be a jerk. They're having so much fun yelling "b1tch!" 😆 It'd be funny to see them reacting to, say, dog breeders or kennel owners or something using it in its completely innocuous original context. Boy, you got "comfortable" right. This auto-voice corrector is leading y'all astray on some of this stuff. Any native speaker who actually pronounces this as "com-for-ta-ble" is 99% certain to be doing it to be funny or weird. We say it just like he did: "com-fter-bul." And again the corrector is misleading. We say the singular "month" pretty much phonetically, except for changing the "o" to more of a "u" sound; the pronunciation the correct gives -- "munth" -- is literally how we say the singular version (no "s"). But our pronunciation of the plural "months" almost completely drops the "th" digraph and replaces it with a slight "t" sound: "munts." Because actually pronouncing it the way the corrector says -- "monTHs" -- is a nonfunctional way to actually speak fluidly. I always forget how hard "squirrel" seems to be for most non-English speakers (I've seen people from numerous countries and language systems try it). Logically, I can see why it's hard, but it's something you don't tend to think about if you grew up saying it. Language is a head trip.

Koreans insert extra vowels like the Japanese: deskusu. Beach/sheet/peace always crack me up.k
@bedrock6443
@bedrock6443 Ай бұрын
Because maximal syllable structure in Korean is CGVC (consonant glide vowel consonant) Japanese is even more restrictive with CVN (consonant vowel nasal consonant). Their native langue has a very restrictive syllable structure so when they see consonant clusters they can’t pronounce them so they add vowels.
