Hello, Sam! I'm torn between a glottal stop and a /ch/ when it comes to /t+j/. I've noticed that I, sort of, use both of them. But, what about the words like Tuesday, tuna, tube, tune, etc? Do you say /ch/ then? Thanks for the video! It was informative and helpful
@@thecuriousone1790 Hey! Sorry it took me a while to post the third part. It's been ready for over a month but since the Johnny Depp-Amber Heard trial was a hot topic, I thought it more relevant to talk about that. In general feel free to use either a glottal stop or a /tʃ/ without feeling bad about it😉 but maybe now that you know that sophisticated English prefers the former, you'll be able to notice it more when actors speak, for example. As for Tuesday and those words, I should probably have included them in the video! Some dictionaries give you /tj/ and some give you /tʃ/. In normal everyday English we all say /tʃ/, I do, too. A few people do say /tj/, mainly for TUESDAY, but for me it's unnecessary effort, so I would suggest use /tʃ/ 😊
@@thecuriousone1790 Thanks!! Sorry for ruining the magic of the compliment but I have to say this: we say 'the video was worth waiting FOR' or 'the video was worth THE WAIT'. If the verb you put after WORTH requires a preposition to connect it to an object, that preposition needs to be added :)
DID YOU DISCOVER ANY NEW WAYS OF PRONOUNCING 'T'? 😉

@@EnglogicSam Thank you! The video was worth waiting. Undoubtedly
