I cannot even quantify how much better I got at various detais after watching Tim´s videos, masterpieces of education.

[@januarysim3679]

Love it

[@maurowws]

Yes. please more pronunciation workshops.. Mostly videos aiimed at advanced studnets and more details about pronunciation. We learners of English as a second language learn at the beginning things that arre sometimes hard to correct later. So useful these vids. Cheers.

[@rtalk6753]

[@mar2186]

Notebook for assignments 🙏 ⚫︎assimilation : two consonants which are the last sound of the former word and the first sound of the latter word are connected and change to one sound.

[@라김래]

hi Tim.Thank you for your great series, they are very helpful ,i've a question, what about the WILL sound when it becomes an auxiliary, how can we pronounce it ?

[@learncrypto2957]

Great video, hope you create more video pronounciation in the time!

[@SmartBananaEnglish]

Well done! It works in the opposite direfction as well: TOP TEN pronunciation videos:)

[@Romkosss]

The second sound always eats the first one, anyway )

[@MizZvampire1]

Thanks Tim! I´m german and I study german, but this helped me to understand the assimilation process anyway :D By the way, are you a kiwi? Cause u used "ae" after a sentence?

[@jusri2505]

[@khuma65]

In the word 'paper', there are 2 'p' sounds. Which 'p' takes aspiration 'p' = ph? Both the 'p'? Initial 'p' only ? I struggle with this simple sound.

[@user-rr8xn3yf8j]

It is so good!! Thanks for the lesson

[@aliashraf.memories]

[@EXPLORINGPIPING]

[@freddy19712610]

Is the assimilation only during the speech or if you are transcribing phonetics you should respect it?

[@kratennoinoi]

Thanks! I like Tim's clear pronunciation and his lovely office pod. :D

[@muyguapo1029]

What about t+f sound like ‘smartphone’? Is it pronounced /sma:foun/ as well? or should I pronounce it clearly?

[@alexis80330]

Is this applicable for American English?

[@giadavallone2213]

What about in the phrase "get dressed"? Do you pronounced the 't'? 🤔

[@Romkosss]

'd' is eating the 't' sound.

[@adeleke5140]

Hehe. The sentence I think I have a split personality also show assimilation 😁😁

[@Romkosss]

They did it on purpose to entertain us a bit.

[@millermancera1061]

Hi I'm Miller. I have a question about assimilation. Do you have any video of the assimilation of /z/followed by /ʃ,ʧ,ʤ/? thank you

[@poftim7773]

We certainly assimilate /z/ with /ʃ/. The /z/ in "these shoes" becomes something like /ʒ/: /ðiːʒ ʃuːz/. However we don't normally assimilate /z/ with either /ʧ/ ("these chairs") or /ʤ/ ("these jackets").

[@ilhambelhadj6275]

poftim please can you tell me all the cases of assimilation ?

[@tarifhamsho2632]

thanks...very useful..go on

[@bangers7500]

Why peace?

[@milianedik]

Why American English is so different from British English and the rest of the commonwealth of nations?, The differences are too.someone could answer that and so clarify my doubts once and for all.It is that for a Latino like me is very, very hard to learn English vocabulary, because apparently never vocabulary in this beautiful but just very hard language, please resolve this doubt me.

[@dawnbreeze500]

Hi, we'll be adding a new episode of Tim's Pronunciation Workshop every Friday to this playlist for the next few months. There are also lots of pronunciation videos on our main website here: www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/features/pronunciation

[@muradsflv5616]

That will help me much. Your videos have helped me to learn this language a lot. Thanks for your efforts!

[@saurabhjoshi101c3]

Dear +bbclearningenglish, I was wondering if you could add all of your videos from your website on your KZbin channel. It's so easy to watch them here. On the website the videos take very long to buffer.

[@andyboa8107]

T is glottalized here, in American English it could be unreleased T instead

[@Gigi-oq5qk]

interesting!

[@uroosahassan9380]

Interesting

[@andreabelenrosales8123]

I’m not sure why, I find this guy intimidating. He kind of has an air of superiority that makes me nervous. The topic is interesting, though.
