ABOUT THIS VIDEO
In this video, I talk about fast speech and how to sound more like a native English speaker. First, we discuss 10 words & phrases. Then I give 3 important tips.
(I also discuss how to hear the difference between "can" and "can't," which is a question students often ask me)
The three biggest tips I share in this video are...
1. The way words sound changes based on their environment
2. Your ears won't deceive you 99% of the time
3. Repeat what you hear right after you hear it
Remember, fast speech isn't really about speaking "quickly"... but it may sound very quick to you since you are a non-native English speaker.
Fast speech simply refers to the way native English speakers change and eliminate sounds as they speak normal, everyday English.
If you are trying to sound more like a native speaker with an American English accent, I give lots of examples in this video to make you aware of what to listen for.
Finally, learning pronunciation by reading how words are spelled is VERY confusing because English is not a phonetic language. So, the best way to learn pronunciation is to listen carefully and imitate what you hear.
Here is the list of phrases I discuss in the video:
- What are you doing later?
- Especially
- Excuse me
- Fundamental
- Probably
- Comfortable
- Can vs. can't
- Let me know
- Do you want water or tea or anything?

I don't know why as a native english speaker i find these videos so entertaining. it must be super frustrating to learn english with our weird pronunciations
Haahah. really even you a native English speaker find wierd these pronunciations? LMAO
same, I'm an English student and for me it's so hard the pronunciation and to be fluent while I'm speaking! I wish I could practise my English with native speakers.
Im from argentina and I think argentinian spanish is worst, the language changes so fast that I hear a new slang word almost every week lol and the pronunciations must be hard asf if u r not a native speaker
Yes, It is. I think every language can be hard. Argentinian pronunciation could be harder and I'm from Argentina
Weeping Willow I agree with you so much!
The "can vs can't" example was amazing.
Congratulations!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Can vs Can't >> k'n vs kænt Is that right, Steff?

Hello, Stefanie. I love the ways you speak.
This is one of the videos that nobody explain but is very useful and so important to understand native English speakers and also sound like they.
Parabéns! Sucesso pra você!

Keep it up. From Venezuela
Me gustaría un vídeo sobre cómo usan los verbos cuando hablan de pasado simple.

I like the way you see the camara. It makes me to be aware to what you say. 😃😃
Great video Stefany!! I was waiting for it
Oh, that's great feedback! Thanks, Ruben :)
Stephanie, I know that you try to make your speech more simple for us. Could you speak with us like with your friends in one of your videos? Could you make "fast speech challenge"? I am curious how well we will understand you if you will speak in a usual manner.
Daniel, no, I don't try to make it simple for you guys... haha. This is actually how I talk. :D
Really, I don't believe it! You speak very very well, that's awesome. I'd wish everybody speak like you. Regards from Mexico.
Even if the coach isn't "trying to make it simple" for us here; I believe that since she's teaching, presenting here, intentionally or not, she's still making it easier to understand. Because no matter what; teaching, presenting makes everybody instinctively speak in a somewhat more formal, proper way. It's in its nature. This is in spite of the fact that she says she speaks slower in her daily life and when she presents she flows and goes faster. Maybe she indeed speaks slower in her daily life, but I still believe, instinctively or not, as she's presenting here, even if she's faster, she's subconsciously still reducing, combining words less here which is making it easier for us to understand her. Do you agree, coach?
Dear English Coach {I think Stephany is your name} Yesterday I was watching your videos, and I was just delighted in so. Today woke up with the eager desire to listen to them as after having watched just three of them my English, which is pretty rusty leveled up inmediately.
I'm originally from Chile, but live in Brazil currently. You're, in some way close to me as my mother tongue is Spanish and I lived for two years in Buenos Aires before moving to Brazil.
Just would like to hugely thank you for your videos, as I read from a guy somewhere over here, "you have the gift of teaching".
Once again thank you, congratulations for your work and needed to know the strenght of your pure desire has caused an enormous effect on me {English studying/come back to study it.
Sorry for any mistake I may have commited here. I'm not using any translator, just the little English I learnt about 30 years ago at school.
Hugs from the beautiful Brazil,
Sachi
Fantastic!!!
Cela vaut un Film!!
Qualité irréprochable....meilleure qu'indiqué!
Vidéo renommée......Miss TH-cam!!!
Hello Stefanie, this is such a great video to practise listening and to get all these reduced sounds! Keep going, I mean, keep it up!
haha, I love that you guys are all using "keep it up" now... woo hoo you are learning yayyyyyy :D
That's why we are here, to improve our speaking skill. :)
Fantabulous...👍
The English Coach. tks a lot u're the best...

"Let me know..."Lemino
It's curious,how I always see she saying lemino in the comments and how i'm getting used to that.
leminou*
Naamin
Lee min ho
I'd say 'lemme know'.
i'm enjoying listening to it so much every day now
Hello Stephanie! I'm an english teacher as well, your fast speech videos have not only helped me to improve my own accent and pronunciation but to give my students a new mindset on pronouncing as well. Thank you!
Stefy you'er so next level :D I love it
haha, wow, thank you!! I'm over here wishing I had better equipment to make my videos for you guys (and a quite place... you have no idea how difficult that is to find... at least for me), and yet you guys are here showing all kinds of appreciation. It means so much to me!!
Yes we do! btw are you still in Argentina right?, Hey do you have never thought to create a Vlog channel? since you travel a lot to so beautiful places and with different languages should be great to us the different cultures all related to the language too, I don't if is a silly idea I just love your videos =)
Yeah, I'm in Argentina and yes I have thought about making a Vlog :D But, making the videos is so much work and I'm also building courses for my students so it's hard to do everything. I'll definitely consider it for the future, though :)
Hi stephanie, awesome video thanks.!!!!.... you know regarding this word confortable I was righttttttt, many people always tell me hey dude you said it wrongly but some how I knew I was right I said it as conf-ta-ble, now I am 100% sure, thanksssss steph and keep it up..!!!
haha woo hoo!!! It's like I said, 99% of the time your ears hear correctly... you were pronouncing it as you heard it and everyone else was trying to pronounce it the way it's written. Great job!!
thanks for everthing
As a non-native spearker, your Fast speech series are really helpful. They let me be aware of the things that I didn't realize before. Please keep uploading them~Thank you for your great videos!
Thank yoou for the video! It helped me a lot! Well, I have a question: Can the contractions get different in others regions of US? (Please correct me if my english is wrong haha)
Yeah, contractions can change a bit depending on the region. I'll make a video about them in the future :)
That would be nice! Thanks a lot! :)
I'm a native American English speaker and I say "comfortable" in one of two ways 1. comferdabul (rhyming with convertible) 2. comfruhbul But in almost all informal occasions, I prefer to just say comfy!
Hy..would you like to help me in learning English on Skype with conversation. I hope you will not say no...plz reply me I'll send you my Skype id 🌷🌷😊
I love your videos I understand every word you say. Keep it up and thanks for the lesson.
Watching your lesson really makes me comfortable.
You, native speakers, are killing (literally) the English language! Hahaha
haha..Well Jeferson, languages evolve whether we like it or not. So I think it's better to adapt :D
I quite agree with you.
I totally agree. Thanks for your great job. And if you ask me... I love how the English language sounds just the way it is. With its flap T and D, glottal stop and stuff
The English Coach Dear. You forget, that a language is not a simple endogen system. The language shift and language change is not simple endogenous process. See that William Labov says in this topic. Better to do adapt? (Maybe does, maybe does not.) It is a little cynicism from you. A lot of survey shows that a lot of native NorthA. speaker doesnt know well the English grammar. We (with the English as second language) must to adapt to such speakers who does not know their own mother language? You opinion tells from the background: "hey, shut up. I own USD, the most powerful army all over the world. Im speaking, and you must adapt." You has an Emperor view of a language usage. Its named as language-colonism.
I agree that language is undergoing evolution no matter how small it is. I also support newly-made words! (vocabulary enrichment guys), especially words to spice up our conversation in daily life. .@Akos Feliner Are you a learner of English of Second Language? I see a lot of (to-infinitives errors such as: must to adapt to ...). For speaking, I don't really care about grammar, as long as it doesn't create misunderstanding on my part or my speaking partner. However, for written language, I think you should adhere to the rules of at least good grammar, especially in formal or academic setting. For this century, modern English will suffice, I don't know maybe a thousand year from now, will English be the same by then? (like Old English has become antediluvian).
Omg I'm so happy and proud of myself cause I could understand every single word that you said. English sometimes sounds just like my own language( wich is portuguese by the way)hahaha
Wow, that's awesome, Djeine! Congrats :)
haha not really I undestand english and spanish and I can barely understand any of portuguese xD
Really? I don't think so, I'm learning Portuguese and it's a totally different language. Portuguese sounds like Spanish, that's true.
Juan Carlos Hernández-Pérez i think she means that English is like her native tongue, portuguese. Isn't it?
Djeine Gressler hi would u like to practice english each other ? it could be fun :)
Maravillosa !
Hi dear Stefanie,
Thank you so much for all of time that you consume for improve our english language level.
Your beautiful.
You're*
i think so
Md Sohag But.... I don't like some kind of girl
Akram Faiza she's married 😂
She is beautiful and I have been watching a couple of her videos and think she mentioned that she married.
" and now there's a huge difference between can and can't" sure... Not to non native ears, though.
More videos like this, please.
kn sounds nothing like "can't," though, right?
Thank you very much! Amazing skills to teach.
I realized I'm able to understand you each and every word you say even talk fast since I learnt to think in English. It's super duper.
And also, I wanted to ask your auditorium. Does anybody have a struggle of showing they accent in public? I developed a decent american and even a little british accent but afraid to death speak with them near live people. In those moments I start to panic and showing my ugliest version of english, like what they teach us in russian schools.
Maxim, this is a super common struggle. I went through it, too, with my Spanish. You should check out the videos I did on confidence. I hope they help :)
I "prolly" won't say prob-a-bly again in fast speech. But maybe it's good for learners to know how the words actually are pronounced correctly, because i think they're gonna be helpful when we're traying to be more clear in a conversation, isn't it?!
Yeah, you're right, Emanoel. Maybe I should mention this in my next video. I would say "prolly" in fast, conversational speech... but I wouldn't say it in a formal situation (like if I were giving a speech), unless it was part of an anecdote. Anyhow, yeah... it's good to know the many ways words can be pronounced.
Thank you Stefanie !! Your videos are helping me a lot ,you're very clear when you talk , good work !
You are the best english coach ever!
We have just the same thing with Russian, not so unique )
Not only Russian. I would say, you can hardly name a language that has no significant difference between its spoken and written forms. Perhaps only Latin, because it's DEAD ))
English and Russian are not the worst cases at all. Try to learn some Danish to feel how disaster sounds )))
Okay Finalized !! You are my new California girlfriend who will make me speak like American.
I love that you speak so fast.....! I'm done with those Slow-Mo Guys...
Keep speaking more Natural and More Faster... we are there for you to catch you.
haha, no, I am not your girlfriend! But I'll keep making videos for you guys :D
Yessss! Thanks a Lot! It Was só helpful!!!!
Awesome!!!! Looking forward to Fast Speech #3.
you are so beautiful, that make me keep it up ^-^
I'm also married. haha :D
The English Coach ooh , that makes us sad:'( ❤
The English Coach it doesn't matter jejejeje......... :,)
مسيحي صاك that is true
Lol... I think I'm gonna start making videos with my husband so you guys don't think I'm single. He's really awesome so you'll love him, too! :D
Hey Steph! I want to thank you so much for your useful videos.
your raise my confidence in listening and comprehension boundlessly THANKS A LOT.
As has been mentioned before, I'm a native English speaker, but I love these videos! It is kind of funny how we choose what to spell out and not. Very often I see "lemme go" "Wanna go?" as opposed to "Let me go" or "Want to go", but yeah, "especially" is spelled out.
So many things simply aren't taught to us in a broken-down manner. We just pick it up as we go, and that's how it is.
I had to pause at the, "Do you want water, or tea..." moment just to add my two cents (there's another idiom for ya
I love to hear from you and learn from you.
Thank you so much, Stefanie! This has been really helpful!
Thank you so much for this beautiful videos.
I love your videos !!!Thank you a lot!! 💛💚
