Brings back memories of when my family was posted to England from Australia. At Royal Russell School my English teacher singled me out, she was determined to correct my Australian drawl 😂 I was mortified at the time but I left speaking beautifully. It's a valuable tool to have.

[@philipmulville8218]

Really excellent and clear examples. You’re a very talented teacher. Clarity is everything.

Amazing tips!! I am bilingual, fluent in English after 20 years in the UK but back to my country, my accent is dissolving fast. thank you !

[@kimberlypeters1658]

My mom is Scottish and i love her accent, its just beautiful. The other 2 letters that make a different sound is T & U. Together these 2 letters make the "chu" sound, like Tulips....chulips, and chuna (tuna). I love the British accent, but im kinda partial towards it 😁❤️🇺🇲

[@AHoundOnAHonda]

"I love the British accent"... which one? 🤔

[@Bangtaneu]

No. You should never pronounce "Tuna" - "Chuna" That's incorrect. Both words like that are incorrect. Some ppl make these mistakes but it's incorrect & should be avoided 🙏🏻🇬🇧

Although these sounds are quite familiar to me because I'm pretty good at speaking English, I do love your videos and recommend your channel to people who - like myself - are interested in improving their language skills. Thank you for offering such valuable lessons that teach us a whole lot while being entertaining at the same time!

Excellent find with these five words all beginning with an F 👍 I've just had my 11-year-old son practise these 5 sounds after you, I may also have my pupils do it but only the last minutes in class and give them the link to watch the entire video at home. With their parents if they fancy taking 12 minutes of their time for an oral practise of English.

Thanks for the R advice. With my fake Brit accent had almost been doing this already. I must have had the British accent glossary down in my head for each word.

[@RicktheRecorder]

Very clear and well-explained, but bear in mind that she does not speak with an RP accent - close, but it is slightly northern, with the short 'u' sounding more like 'oo' , and a short 'a' in words like 'after'. In R P, it's 'ahfter'.

[@AroundTheWorldWithEase]

It's a lovely hybrid.

[@Sujan-Luther]

This video has been so helpful for me. Specially the pronunciation of "we're". For a long time I've been in confusion how to pronounce it properly. Now I get it. Best regards from Bangladesh🇧🇩🥀🖤

[@ronaldmondriaan897]

Thank you very much it was very useful to me. The English language can be very difficult we have been to a motormuseum in Beaulieu , at first I pronounced it as a French word, but it was wrong. I also like to hear the Small Faces with the song Lazy Sunday than I hear Cockney accent, it's Abracadabra to me as a Dutchman. We understand "BBC" English and also your language in the South, but in the North it's gonna be difficult. I'm aware Dutch is also very difficult, sometimes in England people think we are Germans.😀👋

[@super77ish]

The funny thing is that Brits commonly add a non-existent (linking) r at the end of words such as saw or draw when they say 'saw it' or 'draw it', for example.

[@binxbolling]

That's called the intrusive R.

[@badingan2000]

[@GauravBankar-kp7he]

Please reply. (Please don't mind it's too long comment) Is this information correct? (from Chat GPT) When you see a present participle (an -ing form) at the beginning of a sentence, ask yourself this simple question: 1. Is there an immediate reaction? If the second action (main verb) happens because of the first action (participle), it often means "as soon as." Example: "Hearing a loud noise, she looked outside." Here, the noise causes her to look outside right away. So, it means "as soon as she heard the noise." 2. Are the actions happening together without one causing the other? If both actions happen at the same time, but neither one causes the other, it usually means "while." Example: "Reading a book, he sipped his coffee." Here, reading doesn’t cause him to drink coffee; he’s just doing both at the same time. So, it means "while." Quick Check: Does one action make the other happen? Yes → It means "as soon as" No, just happening together → It means "while" I hope this way makes it even clearer!

[@hatihatihatihati]

Thank you! Your explanation is perfect. Very engaging. While we're at that, I'd really like to hear the difference between WHERE and WERE explained exactly the same way. To make it more interesting, you could add FUR and FAIR to it. So, in the end, something like: 'WHERE WERE THOSE FAIR FURRY FAIRIES?'

[@Topwaylearningenglish]

"Where" is pronouced as itsellf but were is pronounced as woh. This is very confusing 😂😂 but interesting bro

[@timmacer9650]

"Where" is just like "Fair" and "Were" is just like "Fur" - just exchange the consonants and you will have it exactly right.

The Indian English accent doesn't use the R either. I'm talking about the English spoken by first language speakers in this country. Many of us grew up in convent schools and learnt to speak in a hybrid British/Indian accent.

funny mood minimal aesthetic approach engaging examples, I just to say you bravissimo!

In my opinion this is very easy. When you do this just remember to pronounce the R sound as H . For example: worker=wohkeh Taker= takeh

I have an impression that in RP EAR becomes two syllables: "EEuh". Very important in RP, I think, is aspirated t. Many dialects put less emphasis on the t or even pronounce as a d.
