Hi please i want you to answer me if is it correct to say that illoyal is the opposite of loyal?please answer me 👍thanks in advance

[@ExtraEnglishPractice]

We usually say "disloyal"

[@muniratarmohamed5399]

Thank you for the wonderful video. I had a question about the word "Beginning". I think since it is g+i, it may be categorized as soft sound.

[@ExtraEnglishPractice]

That does follow the rule, but unfortunately English has many exceptions!

[@yuniartha70]

Hey I'm so happy to see you again here, my great teachers... Thanks for this one, I'm waiting for upcoming lessons.🌹

[@mohamedmifras8274]

Madam , I have a doubt 1)(Just because you haven't got it all figured out.) I saw this sentence someone who posted on Twitter .I normally I studied present perfect tense example: 1)I have done my work 2)he has broken the window 3)they have forgotten 4)we have taken this room. Is this sentence is correct and can we use like these? Could please tell me how to use?how it's coming?

[@ExtraEnglishPractice]

Yes, those sentences are correct. We have a couple of videos about the Present Perfect tense, so hopefully those can help. Just look for them on our channel.

Hi i'm from Indonesian, thanks for your great video But i want to ask, why "Beginning" is G Hard Sound even after "G" is "I"?

[@poksana5476]

Hi! I watched one of your videos which was very helpful about the difference between pronunciation of short vowels "o" and "u". And I thought I was done with these sounds. But a new confusion just popped up. The letter "a" makes three sounds: short a, long a and ah as my book says (actually not mine but my 7 year old daughter 🙂). What this ah sound is? As far as I understand this the sound as in "awesome" or "law". Is it the same sound as in "poppy" or is it different? How about the word father? I hear the same sound in poppy/awesome/father but the transcriptions in all three words are different. I am so confused. Could you please help me to understand this. Thank you

[@ExtraEnglishPractice]

Hmm, I'm not sure what your book is saying. Is it American English? In our accent, I think "poppy", "awesome", and "father" have the same sound, which is that AH sound.

[@poksana5476]

@@ExtraEnglishPractice thank you for the reply. Yes, it's American English. But actually I can't blame the book. It doesn't say that the sounds are different in these words but it also doesn't say they are the same so it's a little bit confusing for me as I am not a native speaker. They also transcribe the short o as /ŏ/ but in the other topic when they talk about what sounds the letter a makes the third sound except long and short a is /ah/. That's how they transcribe it. So why don't they use the same symbol then? Maybe they will talk on specifically this sound in the next level more. If you Google these words, it gives totally different transcriptions though the same pronunciation so that was confusing. But you gave the answer to my question. It's the same sound as I thought. Thank you!

[@snehavaghela2020]

Gift , girl , are followed I but it's g not j..how do I explain which is against the rule or trick..my kid is reading sound wise correct but rule wise she gets few such words wrong..

[@ExtraEnglishPractice]

Unfortunately, English has many exceptions like these!

[@paulcookies]

Hello, the word 'beginning' hard or soft? (7mins - 30secs). "When C or G is followed by e, i or y use the soft sound".

[@ExtraEnglishPractice]

It's an exception to that rule, unfortunately!

[@paulcookies]

@@ExtraEnglishPractice Thank you.

[@amanyadav7526]

Ma'am, Is the below sentence grammatically correct (Son is asking his Mom: is there any food leftover ? )

[@waleedaltalhi5272]

Thanks for your perfect explanation, but I'd like to grab your attention that you've made a slight mistake by putting the word "beginning" under the wrong place of the hard g. It should be under the soft "g" side as it is flowed by " i".

[@GurtBFroe1]

Beginning has a hard G sound in it as an exception to the rule.

[@anniejacob2536]

Why girl not as jirl

[@cbsteffen]

Because it doesn’t come from Vulgar Latin (and maybe not any other type of Latin either).

[@kennyw871]

Next up, how to pronounce omicron? It's Ah not Oh!

[@cbsteffen]

The soft “c” and soft “g” sounds come from palatalizations of those letters in Vulgar Latin. If an English word has a hard “c” or hard “g” before “e,” “i,” or “y,” that means the word has nothing to do with Latin (at least not Vulgar Latin). Why is the English language so screwed up? Probably because England might be out of place compared to many other European countries!
