Very helpful thanks ! 👍 I keep repeating the words you said in the video , I like the phonetics of the American english . Flap T and the “r” are quite difficult for an italian native speaker

[@AdvancedEnglish]

That's great, Gian! Flap T is a tricky one, but certainly fun once you get the hang of it!

For a Brazilian as well, I've been trying to say the flap T but its really tricky. The R is a problem for me also

I am an elderly (not 'senior') Englishman and I have a list of misunderstood American words: winner/winter, rider/writer, trader/traitor, anybody's/antibodies. That last one was the best - I had no idea what the lecturer was saying. It seems that many Americans mumble in a lazy way, speak too fast and don't articulate. "I can do it" and "I can't do it" sound exactly the same, which could be disastrous. American English prefers idioms to simple, straightforward words: children are always kids, you hit a town instead of reach it, 'you're through' means you've finished....and so many more.

What tips and tricks to speak English. I have been abroad to learn English speaking many years I’m having to speak English make videos in English in KZbin videos like you teachers, or doctors. I know all English words but can’t speak English very well . I know the language. Tips and tricks to speak English fluently? Thank you

[@halcyonzhang1807]

What about the word POLITICS? it's not a stressed syllable, and it's in-between two vowel sounds? How come people don't use the flap T sound here? I'm so confused lol

[@michaelyuan3382]

Isn't the "flap t" actually an unaspirated, voiceless /t/ as in /stop/ instead of a true, voiced /d/ as in /dog/? Ditto for the p sound in "stopper": isn't it just an unaspirated, voiceless /p/ instead of a true, voiced /b/? I speak Taiwanese, which has voiceless, aspirated /p/, voiceless, unaspirated /p/, and voiced /b/ as distinct phonemes. By analogy, aspirated /tʰ/, unaspirated /t/, and voiced /d/ can also be different phonemes, as they apparently are in Classical Armenian, but the first two ( /tʰ/ and /t/) are not different phonemes in English but are allophones: interchangeable sounds that do not convey different meanings to speakers of the language. I am wondering, therefore, if English speakers mistake the unaspirated, voiceless /t/ as a true, voiced /d/ because phonemically it is what they have to do to make sense of the unaspirated, voiceless /t/ and distinguish it from the aspirated /tʰ/. Since English speakers do not distinguish unaspirated /t/ and aspirated /tʰ/ as separate phonemes, even though they may detect the difference as a difference in accent (gringo American vs. Hispanic American accent, e.g., in the name "Antonio"), a convenient way to express the difference between the unaspirated /t/ and the aspirated /tʰ/ would be to use the more obvious and familiar difference between the voiceless and voiced phonemes (the voiceless allophone pair /tʰ/ and /t/ vs. the voiced phoneme /d/) and erroneously label the voiceless, unaspirated /t/ as the voiced phoneme /d/ when it is actually just the voiceless, unaspirated /t/. Can anyone confirm my suspicion? Alternatively, isn't the so-called /d/ sound as in "ladder" different from a true /d/ sound as in /dog/ and is actually closer to the "flap t" sound so that an actually voiceless "flap t" sound is confused with and mistakenly identified as the voiced phoneme /d/?

It not all that difficult to speak properly a T is as easy as a D, its going to make spelling difficult (do be or not do be dat is d question) I have been pronouncing T's all my life no wonder I feel tired.

Could never work out why Americans claim to be English speakers. Truth is, there is English and there is American (and never the twain shall meet).
