Q&A:FULL vs FOOL: Pronunciation difference

[@ll.6379]

This is extremely helpful! My friend told me she feels like every time she says "I'm full" sounds like "fool" now I can tell her it's totally different! Thank you! I appreciate it!

[@yezill]

"Does that help? I hope so." Yes, that was a huge help thank you~

[@belenhernandezbenavente3420]

Thank you very much... I am Spanish and learning these new sounds I know it will take time but I am going to try and practice as much as I can. On the other hand, I can understand now why when I was in England, the natives couldn't understand me sometimes.

[@coachshanesesl]

My pleasure!!!^^

[@3dmazeXyz]

Oh, man, I loved this video! You are such a great teacher!

[@MrRrojas2000]

This is guy is good and fun. Added to the videos I have to look to improve pronunciation.

[@maryrsn8629]

Thank you so much !! You have never glossed over your lessons. Wonderful teacher 👍🌺

[@BrushRush]

[@life_goes_on226]

So great!!! I totally got it! Others said those two sounds are similar and it was difficult to distinguish those sounds from their videos. Finally i got it from u :) You're the best!! thx a lot!

[@twos31]

you are a good teacher.. amazing!

[@j1o2h3n4ify]

I hope you can do a video differentiating the short u sound and the schwa sound

[@joguuguu5126]

It helps a lot but what's the difference between full and fall in pronounciation?

[@alejandromendez7684]

a very clear explanation, excellent

[@preludefugue4859]

Thank you!! That is the most clear video for explaining these two words. I finally got the idea!

[@pro369]

Great, very precise. The same thing for book/buk/ and boot/bu:t/ I guess !

[@coachshanesesl]

YES!!

[@sharonwilliams249]

Great lesson I searched for after reading Proverbs 29:11 NIV out loud and thinking I never noticed the similarity before so here I am for the learniing. 😀Thanks

[@cruzhernandez7183]

Thanks I like the way you explain the words.

[@davidakulian]

Can you make one about the pronunciation of COLOR and COLLAR, please. I guess a lot of ESLers confuse them. When someone says it, I can differentiate them but have a hard time pronouncing it myself. The same are: wonder - wander bot - but got - gut bog - bug ...

[@zhaozoe439]

Thank you, this is truly help. Can you make a video about the words of "four, full, fool and fall" together please? After watch your video, I know the deferences between 'fool' and 'full'. But I'm still confused to say if those words together in a text. Thank you.

[@coachshanesesl]

zhao zoe I'll make a video for you^^

[@benjamin84x]

And foul too !

[@English_Marathoner]

[@yassinabdelrhman5875]

Thank you

[@yassinabdelrhman5875]

Very nice pronunciation

[@janei8224]

I knew it. I knew that's different, but I just want to make sure,thanks a lot, now I have no hesitation to speak out loud!! : )

[@samDLBJAusMelb]

Hello Shane I always see 2 types of pronunciations in a dictionary-- 'spell' and 'IPA'. I think 'spell' is easier to use. but sometimes it is confusing. like bull--/boo l/ (inclined oo), and boo /boo/. Could you spend a little bit time telling us a bit about how to read the 'spell' pronunciation? And [short u], [short i], [short a] seem a bit similar. and they all sound like 'uh' LOL. Is there any distinct difference or people can always tell from context. like cup/ put. same 'u' different sounds (\kuhp\ & \poo t\ (inclined oo, short u)).

[@yangboyce8191]

[@oehisehie]

thank you for a video. I have another question. Is the the "ol" in "volume" the same sound as "all'? thank you

[@coachshanesesl]

Yes, exactly

[@oehisehie]

@@coachshanesesl thank you. you are an awesome teacher especially the video you made about the pronunciation of "months". speaking of which, as an asian, me and my classmates all get confused about the pronunciation of "baths" and "bathes"(third person of bathe), would you be able to make a video on those demonstrating the sounds? thank you so much

[@NAMLE-qv2id]

thanks for your effort and commitment. i follow you for a long time in DD, pronunciation channel and i find it useful to enhance my command of English. anyway, i have a quenstion that how i can cope with intonation easily? my accent is not bad but i have no idea how to be like a native speaker. can u give some suggesstions? i wait patiently for your respond. hopelly, u have a great day.

[@peng1110]

all I wanna say is that when we ESL first came across English education. pronunciation is always quickly skipped by using shortcuts such as native syllables or what so ever... And it was really a disappointment when you finally got an opportunity to speak to some native speaker, only to find that he/she can hardly understand your accent (especially your accent is not anything they are familiar with (Indian for example).. Living on with our lives, we probably only to find that even we know how the correct pronunciation should sound, but our tongues are still incapacitated from producing those sounds...

[@josealejandroajau6981]

Great

[@Hope-l7v]

So why we don't pronounce poor like pool then? they both seem to have long "O"

[@GM-wm8ex]

Could please do similar video for..thing..and voice..?

[@juanjomaster8455]

[@andrewm1811]

What's the difference between schwa and this sound?

[@coachshanesesl]

STRESS. Schwa sounds should NEVER be stressed.

[@andrewm1811]

coachshanesesl Thanks so much!

[@cuiabamilgrau3522]

Thanks very much, I never knew if Was speaking these words correctly, because I'm from Brazil and whenever I'm studying english, I read the word and I speak how I read it, I have a doubt about the pronunciation these words : "Word and world", anyone can help me?

[@deweiliu1031]

Thank you, a nice video. But I still can't distinguish fall and full

[@RickSuaz]

I'm here because my google writes Full instead of Fool. So I just had to make sure I was on point.

[@coachshanesesl]

Did you get it right?

[@victortheboss1474]
