Congrats for basically being the only non-native English speaker on the internet who passes for a native speaker and can explain things well (coming from an American educator who's looking for ideas for teaching pronunciation)

[@rodolfoperezlavandera867]

Muy buena explicación. Excellent

[@pluviophilexing2580]

As a native Chinese speaker, the pronunciation of diphthongs is a really difficult point. So thank you very much for your guidance and teaching, it helps me a lot.

[@evgenymagidson4434]

Look who's back :)

[@TaiLe-dr5ve]

How about /iə/ as in the word 'really' /ˈriəli/ or in the word 'theater', is it a diphthong in American English?

[@englishvibes9961]

I was wondering that too

[@englishvibes9961]

I think it's a dipthong in British only

[@TaiLe-dr5ve]

@@englishvibes9961 yes, in British it is diphthong. In American English, it is 2 syllables. But sometimes, American native speaker speaks it as a diphthong similar British, for ex: 'theater'. Sometimes they speak as 2 syllables, as in word 'media'.

[@onlygoodvibes7357]

Thanx a lot , keep it up (F)

[@manu3407]

Practice along with me.

[@marcelonicolasbarrios6964]

Hello Hadar! Isn't the first sound the same in the diphthongs of words like "now" and "my"? Because most American English dictionaries have "now" and "my" with /a/ as the first sound in their diphthongs: "Now" /naʊ/ and "my" /maɪ/. Other dictionaries have the sound /ɑ/ as the first sound in their diphthongs: "Now" /nɑʊ/ and "my" /mɑɪ/. And other dictionaries have the sound /æ/ as the first sound in their diphthongs: "Now" /næʊ/ and "my" /mæɪ/. But none of the dictionaries has two different sounds for the first sound of both diphthongs. However, you differentiate both first sounds in the diphthongs: /æ/ in "now" as /næʊ/ and /a/ in "my" as /maɪ/. Thank you very much for your response in advance!

[@emadarar3091]

We would be grateful if you discuss some terms used in news to condemn what is going on in Ghaza

[@yukineko5135]

No, we would not

[@philosopher144]

Think you made a mistake! The /o/ in the /oʊ/ dipthong is a monothong /o/, not the o vowel found in NOT ("/nɑt/ ). This monothong /o/ can be found in spanish word such as peso

[@etmoem]

To me (pt-br), the American pronunciation of the ow diphthong is the most difficult. 😅

[@Mirador2]

It's /ɑɪ/ not /aɪ/.

[@Tmahmoud5811]

British people think that American don’t speak a proper English.😂😂
