Oh my gosh, I've had this doubt for years!!!!! I'd always heard native speakers dropping the "t" in "can't" and wondered how they could differentiate between can and can't and now I finally know!!!! GOD BLESS YOU, GOOD MAN!!!

Welcome back, Eliot, and thank you for explaining the difference between 'Can't' and 'C**t.' I always mispronounced them, and my friends used to joke with me about it.

The British accent is so posh and I could listen to it for hours. Ironically, my accent apparently sounds like British - French .. maybe because I spent a great deal of my life living and working in Canada and I was born in the Philippines. Suffice to say, my accent is an enigna for some Filipinos here, I "sound like a foreigner" when I speak in English.😊 Wonnderful job as always. Never ceases to anaze. Kudos.✌

Thanks for your advice: lengthen the sound, to make sure it is can't. Talking to a lady, she looked at me in surprise. I guess now that my way of pronouncing 'can't sounded like that vulgar word you refer to and that I didn't know until I heard your video.

@olgayaresko4925 4 ай бұрын

Can and can't is oneverrb, bcause can has a negative form cannot . The contraction of cannot is can't. Thank you for helpful pronunciation tips. I didn't know that can't has two types ofpronunnciation in British English.Thank you for explaining me that.

Hi I really enjoy all your videos, thank you so much🙏 especially for this one - it‘s really helpful. The most difficult words for me to pronounce are „adult“ and „sure“ 🙈 even after many years of learning English my pronunciation of these two words hasn’t improved. Perhaps one day you could help with these two.

Thank you so much for teaching this confusing but very commonly use words. Would you mind to consider explain about ‘obsessed & upset’ I found it very difficult to tell the different while having conversations with native speakers, either speaking or listening. I know these two words spell very different but my tongue and ear just can’t do that…. But people use a lot and that make me very stressful since two meaning is very opposite ends 😢🙏💦 thank you

Great lesson, as usual. Quick question: what's the right pronunciation of "interesting" and "interested"? I guess even the american "Interesting" and Interested" are both right, although I've been saying "interEsting" and "interEsted"since ever. Is it a real issue or not? I'd appreciate a video about that from you, if you'd like. By the way. super congrats on your new super cool studio 😉👍

Hello Teacher, You speak English magnificently and I get it, but when I listen american films I don't understand anything, an example: the actor Adrien Brody.

@joseandresardondavila7069 4 ай бұрын

Would you say that the British /æ/ is more similar to the American /æ/ in “cat” and “had” than the one in “can”? This vowel drives me crazy because I can hear a clear difference between British /æ/ VS American /æ/ VS American /æ/ followed by /n/, /m/ or /ŋ/, but when I go to dictionaries they all simple transcribe it as æ.
