We love the gemination/twinning lesson! Midday (d in mid and d in day), Bookcase (k in book and c in case), and Lamppost (p in lamp and p in post) are great examples of the twinning of sounds! Thank you for the refresher

[@jgathayde1]

I think I’m The first to see ! I’m waiting.

[@giulianocucurullo9624]

Thanks a lot! What about a sequence of plosives that are homorganic like "pub party" " book game" "mid time". Is it just a sequence in which the release of the second plosive is stronger than the first or can gemination be applied?

[@samueldhas8361]

[@fahrushsalam1365]

Thank you a lot for the explanation madam, but may i make an request? How about the explanation in syllable based generalizations in phonetic? I am so confuse about that material in my study. Thank you for the attention 😊

[@mohanapriya5108]

Hello mam I have one doubt vowels have a long sound and short term and consonants also have a long and short sound...🤔🤔🤔

[@BillieEnglish]

Not in the same way as vowel sounds do, but we can say that in some incidences (as explain in my video) certain consonant sounds are made a bit longer. However, this only happens in a few cases, so it's really different to long & short vowel sounds that form an integral part of English pronunciation.

Nice transcription! ;-)

[@kostyat6812]

why don't all Americans rise up against this terrible spelling of words so that the spelling becomes consistent with pronunciation?

[@BillieEnglish]

I'm with you there! Let's start a spelling revolution! :-)
