Good evening. I am a doctor from Tunisia (Arab country in North Africa). Here, the French is our seconde language and doctors need medical English to present their works in medical meetings but unfortunately we face difficulties especially to pronounce the names of many diseases and microorganisms. I should be grateful if you present in your videos (how to pronounce) the name of some diseases and parasites particularly difficult to pronounce, such as "Leishmaniasis, Hydatidosis, Echinococcus, etc .Thank you in advance.
You should look into on other channels, here it's for beginners jajajaajja and intermediate
Thanks!
thanks

excelente Rachel, deberías hacer todos los videos así donde se ven los movimientos de los labios y lengua cuando pronunciamos porque eso es lo que hace la diferencia de tu gran trabajo entre tu y los otros profesores de TH-cam, eres de gran ayuda. bendiciones!

Thank you so much for your videos....i'm egyptian and i learnt so much from you.....and i'd like to know the right pronunciation of "Maintenance"
Hi Eslam Mawad. For single words a good thing to learn the pronunciation is to use Google Translator. For big sentences it is not recommended, but for single words it is very nice.
actually i think that google translation pronounces this word in a wrong way...cause i heard it before and it was shortened in pronounciation
I don't know but for me google translator pronunciation is correct. If you want we can talk via skype then we can help one each other. What do you think?
i'm afraid i can't cause i've much work to do for university these days.....maybe we can talk another time...thanks....and what's your nationality by the way?
Can you teach me how to pronounce the word "backpack". It's so hard to say this word correctly all the time

thanks ...
You're welcome Dileepa!
Pleas .how pronuociation fasciolipsis
Please teacher D= I desesperately need minimal pairs like "year" and "ear". I was shocked when told they arent homophonous. Cant tell the difference for my life! Please, help. That video came at the right time.
The difference, I think, for "year," is that I believe you need to have your tongue closer to the roof of your mouth and farther forward for the y consonant (as opposed the the long e vowel sound), while having air pass through that very narrow path between the two, before you move your tongue back to make the "ee" sound in the rest of the "year" word. I wanted to know how to show this to students, since they are used to saying the "ee" sound for y, which presents a problem when they have to say "year," since it will sound like "ear," but I'm not sure if this explanation works.
Thanks a lot professor ❤️❤️
I have heard some speakers pronounce this sound between [j] + [d͡ʒ] , is that possible?
Hi! Most native speakers will stick with the [j] sound here! :)
@@rachelsenglish
Thank you so much 🥰❣️❣️
HEY... RACHEL... PLEASE MAKE A VIDEO ON PRONUNCIATION OF THE WORD "BETTER".. SOMETIMES IT BECOME VERY PROBLEMATIC TO USE BETTER IN A SENTENCE... "BATTER" AND "BETTER" ALSO SOUNDS SIMILAR... YOUR EFFORTS WILL BE APPRECIATED...
in other video, I didn't see that the middle of tongue need to be against the roof of mouth
YO,, SUPERSTAR
👍

What means 'push' in this sentence ? -As we push the tongue forward on the roof of the mouth, we close the vocal cords to get this sound.

It means you are pressing your tongue up and against the roof of the mouth behind the upper teeth!
@@rachelsenglish, got it ,thanks .
For me the sound J is the same as / i: /. I can't hear the difference. For exemple yellow in my mind is iellow , you = iou and young = ioung . Help me .
i Spanish
Hi Rachel! Greeting from Japan and thank you for your great videos. They help me a lot!
Yet I find it really difficult to pronounce Y after N consonant. like the word, California. The last syllable is [njə] and I cannot lift the middle part of the tongue that quick...
I would appreciate it if you could give me a tip for that.
Anyway thank you always for your great videos !
Hi! Great question! Try making the N sound with more of the tongue lifted in the mouth - that adjustment may make it easier for you to quickly move into the Y consonant sound. Many consonant sounds shift the way the exact tongue position depending on what sound comes next - this is a great example of this!
@@rachelsenglish Thank you so much for your advice!
I'll try that !

Does the tounge touches the roof of mouth? Is there a small space between the tounge and the roof of mouth? Can the side of tounge touches the inside of upper teeth? Thank you in advance!
There is a small space between the top of the tongue and the roof of the mouth, but the sides of the tongue will touch the inside of the upper teeth - yes!
@@rachelsenglish Thank you so much!

It's been a while I'm trying to speak English, but I don't have native English folks to train with. My writing skills, as you can see, aren't the best of me. I'm better listening.
are you open your mouth in Y [j] sound as you open your mouth in /ɪ/ sound Thank you.
That seems about right - yes! :)
@@rachelsenglish Thank you. Thank you. Thank you so much.

j is voiceless?
The IPA symbol [j] actually represents the Y consonant sound. But actually, the Y consonant (as in 'yes, yellow') and the J consonant (as in 'jump, justice') are both voiced!
how about pronouncing Y sound after a vowel like.. ( beautiful, ridiculous, opinion,..) ?
Yes! Those are great examples of the Y consonant sound.
Rachel I Believe in YO
Thank you!

/J/
I'm so confused about the way how native speakers pronounce this combination "a consonant/ a vowel + [jən]".
For example:
* [g] + [jən] in argument [ˈɑːrɡ.jə.mənt], is it pronounced the same as [gju:], meaning that we can pronounce this word [ˈɑːrɡ.ju:.mənt]
*[n] + [jən] in onion [ˈʌn.jən]
*[ɪl] + [jən] in brilliant [ˈbrɪl.jənt]
To you is easier to pronounce correct because you are an American but I'm Peruvian to me is so difficult .I think that there should have be a video where someone teachs it speaking in Spanish to understand better. I was searching it but I don't find anything.I don't know what to do .there are a lot of words that I have to learn how to pronounce because I am studying pronunciation. I hate English.😣 I am going to give up.
Bueno ahora hay varios videos, la j es como una i
what a beautiful mouth...OMG
Great !
