Wow, well done!! 🥳 Congratulations!!

Love your class! In March I will sit for an exam involving transcription with fonetic adjustments and also I will be tested in prominence in sentences and discourse intonation. Last month I failed the exam so I decided to watch aaaaaall your videos and be prepared for the next exam in March

Therefore, we do not pronounce /r/'s at the end of words and before consonants, except when the next word begins with a vowel and is pronounced without a pause, for example: far /fɑː(r)/ + away /əˈweɪ/ = /ˌfɑːrəˈweɪ/ These are the phonetic symbols of a British English accent called General RP, as introduced by A.C. Gimson in 1977. It is now considered to be old-fashioned, but it is the easiest concept of pronunciation that Indonesians can understand. I just shared this information to you...perhaps you need it.

[@BillieEnglish]

Thank you for adding this - I think the examples for vowels and consonants might be helpful. However, the tiphthongs listed are not considered correct. A triphthong is a monosyllabic vowel combination (diphthong + vowel in ONE syllable), for axample in the word 'hour' in English. All the ones above are actually a diphthong followed by a schwa sound but in two separate syllables. That is not the same and not a triphthong. You can have a look at my videos on: The Phonemic Chart: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZ22pZqpatakpa8 The Vowel Chart: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kIrOeod_psuNbMU Diphthongs in English: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d3K5eIKmr9agbq8 Consonants in English: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZXWnIuggsynkNU Triphthongs: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXTHoYp3bN-Vhrs I also have more videos on the individual sounds :-)

[@receivedpronunciation6696]

@@BillieEnglish Oh I see. Thank you very much for your information. Actually, that key to phonetic symbols above is just the resumé I made after I read some articles about English speech sounds. In other words, I copied the examples from some people's work.

Hello Adwaa! Sorry for my late reply! You transcribed the sentence almost correctly! strong: I have two cats and a dog /æɪ hæv tuː kæts ænd ə dɒg/ - check 'to' , 'a' & 'dog' this is in weak form: /æɪv tuː kæts ən ə dɒg/ So good try!! Well done :-)

[@darthvader3910]

Hey Billie can you please make a video on how brits pronounce their d's at the END of words like just naturally, it's the specifics of the release of the 'd' consonant at the end of the words that I'm interested in. Please if you can read my comment please do consider. Thanks

[@darthvader3910]

@@BillieEnglish thanks because there is a difference between the American and British plosives at the end of words. The americans dont release the plosives but the British always do. I just need to know how exactly is it done. Thanks

[@kashifawan1817]

thank you so much I am taking a class called phonetics and this really helps. do you by any chance have a video on Transcribe the front vowels

[@ShahzadAhmad-vo7rc]

Again a great way of transcribing. Can you tell me the difference between glottalized t and elided t? I have exam next week, so if you can kindly tell me in two days time, it will be great.

[@BillieEnglish]

Good question! But difficult to explain briefly in a comment, but ok I'll try: Glottalized t: this appears mostly in the UK, e.g. the way some speakers say 'water' more like 'wa'er' - the /t/ has disappeared and instead we have a glottal stop sound. It is associated with a certain dialect and many people would pronounce a /t/ or /d/ (= American English). You can listen to a few examples in this short video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2myYaCdl52Ynrs Elided /t/ refers to elision (I have a full video on that topic). It is a natural feature of connected speech and means that the final /t/ sound in a word often disappears, e.g. in 'next week' the /t/ is gone (= elided /t/). This is not connected to a specific dialect but happens accross dialects. I hope this helps! Good luck in your exam :-)

If you know the IPA you could transcribe any language you hear, even if you don't speak it or know what is being said. Linguists use it to write down new/ unknown languages to learn them.

[@BillieEnglish]

Hello Amit! We use these to show that this is phonemic transcription, not normal spelling. Some phonemic symbols look the same as the letters, e.g. the letter 'g' and the sound /g/ share the same symbol. The slash shows you that this is the sound, not the letter. I hope this helps! Thanks for watching :-)

Hello. İs have stressed or unstressed. İ've heard about it, if the word have means that you have something(you owe something) it is stressed. However, in other contexts it is unstressed. İs it true or not? Thanks beforehand

[@BillieEnglish]

Hello! If it is used as a main verb it is usually stressed. However, if it is used as an auxiliary verb it usually isn't - unless it is in the negative form, then sometimes it is.

[@duckydarttheeditor1867]

shouldnt AN be written like (ən)

[@huaino5522]

I think ill fail because my accent is literally so different so the stresses are also different...

[@rhyfelwrDuw]

Don't worry, I expect whoever is testing you will take your accent etc into consideration. Even us fluent English speakers (I'm British so English is my first language) pronounce words differently.

[@mohamedmounaji6614]

I think that you are wrong in syllables of elephant ( e - le - phant )

Hello Mohamed, I know it can be tricky to find the syllable boundary but I believe it's: el.e.phant - have a look at a dictionary 😊

[@swathis3379]

Hii ma'am... I am from India... I have a doubt... In the sentence... My friend has an elephant... first u transcribed each word... And later changed has and an for oral purpose... But in exams.. which is correct one?

[@BillieEnglish]

Hello Swathi, good question: that depends on the instructions in the exam. But when you have to transcribe a full sentence (not just an individual word), usually the exam asks us to transcribe it as someone would say it naturally, i.e. including features of connected speech which I go over in the second transcript. Best check with your professor!
