Thank you so much. I like to see the difference in pronunciation of the short "a", short "o", and short "u" Sounds. When following you closely in your videos, these short sounds sound about the same. Another case would be the difference between the short "i" and short "e".
This video is very good, all my life I've been pronouncing Au as a short U, which apparently is done in England but not in America which is where I live, no wonder people didn't understand me half the time
is it fair to say that for the O sound in words like "often" "law" one should pull the back of the tongue lightly, say, raising the back of the tongue and keeping the front down ..knowing what the tongue is doing inside the mouth will considerably make sounds easier to produce! it cuts the learning curve to 90%...great video!
is there any way to know whether the single ‘o’ will have and ɔ sound? because i know for example that each ‘o’ in hot dog is pronounced differently if you’re, say, a new yorker. i really wanted to know that
Could you please explain the "Low back merger" (where /ɔ/ and maybe /ɒ/ become /ɑ/) and the "Weak vowel merger" (where unstressed /ɪ/ and maybe /ʊ/ become /ə/)? I'm learning to pronounce words in American English (in general), so I focus on the most standard/common pronunciations, but it's very difficult to know what they are; various dictionaries differ from each other and I think the main conflicts are based on these two mergers, the rest is usually consistent. So far my understanding is that in General American English (or Standard American English) people pronounce /ɑ/ instead of /ɔ/ (and they use /ɔ/ only in /ɔɪ/ and /ɔɹ/), and that /ɪ/ and /ʊ/ in unstressed syllables should be pronounced as /ə/, but I really don't know.
thanks maam its so wonderfull. -i thought i saw a dog, caught the ball last morning o o o O o OR -he saw i yawn b'cuz he thought i get bored o o o o O O O -he always taught me about being the boss at a job o O O o -my dad always taught me how to be boss at a job o o o o - my boss brought my dog at job o o o o -my boss bought me coffe at a job last morning o o o o o -he talked about horror story such a long time and got me scared O O o O O

There are some varieties of American English that use this vowel in the words in the video. You will see this pronunciation listed in dictionaries and textbooks. But know that you can substitute the short O sound if you find it easier. But I teach it, since you need it to correctly pronounce the OR and OY vowels.
Well, I have a little hard comment: Why is your short O sound different in this video from your previous video? I think it is because English does NOT have a standard and you try to make a very difficult language for the other people. That is not a great idea. The communication is very important for all of us. Unfortunately, English is not a very good choice. Difficult is not good, easy is the best choice, don't you think? Thanks for your video.

Merci beaucoup !
Thank you.
Canadians sometimes flip around the sounds ah and aw from how they sound in a general U.S. accent.
is there any way to know whether the single ‘o’ will have and ɔ sound? because i know for example that each ‘o’ in hot dog is pronounced differently if you’re, say, a new yorker. i really wanted to know that
Great question. Unfortunately, not that I'm aware of. You can check the IPA in a dictionary to know for sure.
@@EnglishWithAccentCoachNicole thank you very much!!
The upside down c usually stands for written "o" when f, th, s, ng or g follows as in off, cross, cloth, soft, long, dog, frog etc.
@@nephuraito thanks!!
What do you need help with in spoken English?
I need to become fluent in American accent

Is this the same sound in car?
Yes, but it is blended with the ER sound.
But why the sound change to other vowel to be different
