How to Pronounce the Most Common English Words in Modern British RP

[@LukaszSzatkowski]

Too bad I didnt have such a great teacher in my mid school. You helped me separate british from american in your videos. You also made clear so many things I kinda knew and could predict right forms but couldnt explain why if someone would like to ask me about it. I learnt english language actually myself. From games, movies etc. Never had anyone I could consult things with though my english speakin friends sometimes explained me things when I asked them for it. Thanks Elliott. You are fantastic person and teacher. All the best to you for such an amazing work 🙏

[@mayermikhael7750]

Obviously you are one of my favorite teachers and i don’t miss your lessons and even your way to teach is so quiet and comfortable for me.. thank you

[@papula3531]

Tbh im in love with ur accent its not same as others british accent 🙈❤️❤️❤️ ur voice is addictive

[@cruzalcantara6729]

Every time I watch any of your videos I am convinced that you are the best English teacher ever.

[@Volleyballloversofkerala]

You are the best English teacher mate. love your classes. They r very useful

[@vithalpatil2351]

Excellent. Your teaching makes us understand where we make mistakes in pronunciation and helps us to correct them.

[@winstonbell5433]

Mr Elliot you are really a legden,I do admire you.

[@ТаняЛыскина]

Gonna just drop it now: yesterday a teacher said that my pronunciation was great and the most british in class. Thank a lot! 😎😇💙

[@adilsamiid6449]

congrats 🔥

Hi Elliott! First time I leave a comment on any video, guess how much I like yours! I'm a Spaniard who lived in London during 2010-11 (a year studying in Imperial College London) and I had forgotten many MANY of the things I learnt when it comes to talking. My accent is still quite bad, but thanks to you I'm refreshing all I learnt. In the end, imitation (and very demanded corrections from my English friends) is the key (the way kids learn). Until now, I didn't have any models nearby, but your examples make a huge difference, so hopefully next time I travel to London, I'll be fluent again and, maybe, with a proper accent! Thank you so much!

[@diegonieto8544]

Hi Elliot, I am learning too much about British accent. You are an excellent Teacher. thanks!

[@rowenab.747]

Hi. I stumbled upon your vids thru another British English teacher. Thanks for your videos, I'm learning a lot, having English as my 2nd language. You can actually venture into audiobooks, imho because I tried listening to this video without looking since I need to do something; and I hear your clear words! It's like I'm listening to the radio! Hope you can make more videos! Cheers!

[@MrAllysonn]

Agreed

[@Leonor658]

Thank you for help me to improve my English pronunciation. You are good teacher.. From Ecuador..

[@bespalov.anton.youtube]

One of the most useful videos on this channel! Thank you, Elliott!

[@cannyw9765]

i really really love your videos and you! i haven' t studied or spoken English for about 10 years....And all because of you i came to love British English and study English again. Thank you!

[@nathaliafreitas8895]

Simple but precious tips ! Tks

[@vincentminkhant2076]

Thank you ETJ for doing these episodes. U are really helpful for my British pronunciations.

[@chicharitoagesta5116]

I can sit here all day while listening to your voice word by word

[@Tutume1111]

i have just came across ur channel and u have become my fav teacher already!such as great advice that none of other teachers has ever shared with me in more than last 10 years!Thank you so much for ur time sharing this vid with us :)

[@lovelyjandi6123]

Really sir you have a great sense of humor and I really like your lessons

[@emanmahmoud9439]

You are the best British pronunciation teacher on KZbin

[@drlatham22]

Native speakers of English should be thankful that they learnt the language without studying pronunciation.

[@retrofan2264]

Native speakers also learn pronunciation through hearing at home and in school etc

[@eroica17]

They learned phonics at school instead :)

[@technocat9063]

Agree

[@melisasahin1372]

Same here👍

[@ahmedarfat2518]

Arabic is more complex and harder in pronunciation.

[@emanmahmoud9439]

I love your way of teaching. You are an excellent teacher

[@alessandrasaltamartini7179]

Hi Elliot! Thank you for this new lesson! I've seen other videos on KZbin, about the most common english words pronunciation and do you know what? I've been horrified, because a lot of English teachers teach the standard/strong pronunciation of the most common words, which is absurd in my opinion! We need to know how words sound in real conversation, in real spoken english! So thank you again for this lesson! I'm happy to find a good teacher as you! Bye

[@chryslerleeleee7013]

Thanks Eliot for this .

[@sohagmollah4052]

Hi..elliot...thank you so much for ur glorious lesson...i hope next time we will get another important topic for us...

[@pimmiuamart5112]

[@mariem.974]

Thank you very much for this video. It help's me a lot. The english teachers at my school pronounce the 'th' like the 's' in 'singing'. This drives me crazy sometimes. I'm so thankful of this video and your channel.

[@Ruru1xD]

I think it is so nice to listen to you its so easy

[@milagrosramos3696]

I love you Elliott! It amazing you pronunciation and I can understand all. Thank you for help to improve my listening skill and my pronunciation 😚

[@chihlimbar2]

You know what i find weird that i've not noticed these differences in regards to the "the" word/article only when you mentioned it but i know for a fact that even though i'm not a native english speaker the brain picked up these nuances at the subcouncious level . And i found that you naturally tend to adapt as you speak without really thinking about , but i do believe that it does involve a lot of listening of the foreign language you wish to learn to be able to do that. Anyway great video ! Cheers from Romania mate haha!

[@kuntiagung8105]

thank you elliot. your pronunciation is perfect.

[@mapumenlametsubutsur492]

Thank you Elliott. It is amazing to know you..iam a new subscriber to your channel...i'm going to learn a lot from you..ill be watching your lesson on KZbin.. thank you once again...

[@yassineskoutti1360]

[@iremcerenatik2496]

That's what I need ! Please, make more videos about basics. For example, "walk" and "work" or "lie" and "lay" and so on. There are many words which look simple,but their pronunciation could be tricky for non-native speakers.Cheers!

[@РоманчукМарина-ч2э]

Dear Elliott! I want to say thank you for your channel! My friend advised it to me as I want to sound "more British". Your short and informative videos really help me a lot to work on my pronunciation and vocabulary! However, I wanted to ask you. Please, tell me if I'm wrong. This is about the difference of pronunciation of "the"- article before vowels and consonants. I always teach my students that we pronounce [i] when there's a vowel SOUND after "the", and we pronounce [e] before consonant SOUNDS. NOT LETTERS! Of course, it is very often when a word starts with a vowel letter and a vowel sound simultaneously. The same thing with consonants. (And, as far as I know, the same rule is for articles "a" and "an"). So, let's take such word as "hour" and try to choose the correct article for it. (Let me explain using the indefinite article, that will be easier for me) . If we choose the article according to the rule that vowel letter is the marker, we will say "in half a hour". And that is definitely wrong. The correct answer is "in half AN hour" , because we take vowel SOUND as a marker. (because the word starts with diphthong and in fact has no consonants sounds at all, in spite of two consonant letters).The same thing happens with "university", "unit" but vice versa. We say "A university", "A unit" in spite of the vowel letter after the article. Because the words start with consonant sound [j]. According to the sound rule we will also say "AN umbrella" , because it starts with the short vowel sound[^]. So, "in the end of the day", LETTERS are not important for the choice. We use sounds to choose the pronunciation of the definite article "the", or make choice between indefinite articles "a" or "an". Sorry for such a long explanation, and probable mistakes as I'm not a native speaker... I'll be "over the moon" if you answer my comment. Probably you could create a video about this. It's pretty much important for non -natives. P. S. : how should we say if after "the" there is a sound [i] or [i:], for instance "the evening" or "the important fact", etc. Thank you so much anyway:))) Kind regards, ...

[@marconiap4090]

Very good lesson, I'm brazilian and some kind of sound for us is very difficult like: "th". Thanks for this lesson.

[@kenandken5738]

thanks for the lesson. regards from Philippines

[@cristina-emiliacismaru4437]

Thank you very much for it! I think simple lessons help us, at least me to build a strong basic knowledge of English and if we have the basic things, then other difficult things become simpler.

[@quemehiciste]

Cheers Elliott!!!, Thanks God.., I found you here. Complicated words...,are nonsense, if we do not pronunce them as you, ve done on this video..!! So again Tks a lot you are very clear and take your teaching with such passion, that is also great to see soooo many people subscribing on your channel. Cheers from Buenos Aires! Seeing you on thursday.

[@alfredocoelho8088]

Exquisite, in every way. Thank you!

[@kukatech]

For a brazilian english speaker, it is very difficult to pronunciate an L in the middle of a word. Like in Miles, Tale, Middle, Wales... and the ED on words like AGED, DAMAGED, and other words terminating in AGED... if you've got a video about it, please refer it. Thank you!

[@cherry20101225]

I'm confused these words how to pronounce more common and smooth, thank you so much. It's very helpful.

this is so great... for a person like me who use English as second language (i mean i use american english) it never occur to me that the "the" word should be pronounced depends on what words that will follow. > the+ vowel > the+ consonant 😊😊😊😊 thanks for this video its really informative.😊

[@frankbougrasse8047]

Thank you so much.. I just learned how to pronounce correctly "Of" instead of "Off"....
