As a native English speaker, I never thought of words such a 'girl' as hard to pronounce, but now I understand why it would be. It's nice to see so many people benefitting from your videos, keep it up!
Thanks a lot!
I’ve heard many American little kids struggle with this ?
Today I read ur comment buddy vand I wish to be friends
Im spanish native, i have watch 3 videos and i cant still pronounce girl well, help
I’m a native English speaker but I have always struggled with my “or” sounds, like board, or girl, or anything that makes that noise, I have gotten made fun of for my whole life basically so I’m trying to learn how to properly communicate lmao :)
Can't stop laughing at myself while practicing this word, haha
Me too
@@pichpich2134 me too lol
I bet you became flunet in English by now
Me toooo
I’m fluent English and it’s my first language, but I’ve had a speech impediment my whole life, after watching this I think I’m improving. Thank you so much😁💙
Literally same
Same

the most difficult english word！！
February, Wednesday and Jewellery: hold my beer
@@it_was_my_cat exactly bruh
The most difficult opponent in life is a girl also...........
Girl and gore

Rachel, I am Brazilian and you are SPETACULAR, I am learning many things with you. English is very diferent of portuguese. Thank You!
How in the world, everyday words like this one developed in such an insanely complex way in English?
Excellent tutorial, as always.
I always thought that there was something strange in my pronunciation of this word, but I never could figured out what it was haha
Thanks Rachel I wish you a successful book, you deserve it!
My first (and only) language is english, yet i cant properly pronounce girl
i can and i'm from south america xD
lyraheartstringsno1 ( animal jam ) omg really haha I'm not even American but I can pronounce it perfectly:D
Trinity Kindred no one cares
I’ve been speaking English for 6-7 years and I still don’t know how to say it
Ps I always speaked English I jus learned late
Same
I've always wondered if maybe British English is easier to learn? The vowel sounds are usually much more relaxed in terms of mouth movements. "Girl" for example.
That would make sense to me, actually! The R alone is much easier, I would think, in British English.
@@rachelsenglish just to be clear, English is my first language, so I'm not trying to downplay the usefulness of your videos. I watch your channel because I find it quite interesting to learn how other people learn languages, and the peculiarities of English pronunciation that I take for granted.
Thanks Rachel for everything you've been doing. I've been watching almost all your videos. Obviously first I watched all the IPA one by one till I got everyone, My listened and pronounciation skill get better continuesly. You know when I pronounce words the correct way I think I can write them and be more Open to speak. God bless you for all of this. You are THE BEST.
manuel chavez :) You're welcome!
Did watch almost all her videos ?
Thank you!!! After years of frustration, I'm finally able to pronounce words like "Earl", "pearl", "girl" and "world"...
I had no idea this was a hard word for people to pronounce while learning English. Just goes to show how amazingly different languages can be because this is honestly a word that basically NO native speaker would ever guess would be one that people would struggle with. I followed along though, trying to forget what I already knew, and I can totally see how it could be.
+LanIost Same here, I'm English and had no idea this was a hard word
I’m amazed. I’ve always try to avoid saying words with R in them bc I can’t pronounce it correctly but after watching your video and practicing by recording my voice, I can finally hear myself saying it correctly. Thank you so much, I’m going to keep practicing it.
I have a presentation tomorrow, and the topic is Girl talk! Thank you! your video helped me A LOT! :)
Aaaaaaaarrrrrrmmmmmmyyyyyy
@@prasanthilakshmipatnaik1746 I am also army I am really very happy by seeing army's like me 😍😍😁😁
I’m kinda ok with the word “girl” my problem is “girlfriend “ it’s difficult
Yes, they are...
OMG SAME (im arab lol)
i’m hispanic and it sounds like i’m saying “girfren” 💀💀💀
Just say gf زاهر بن حرام الأشجعي
@@goofyfn4432 its weird to say gf when talking with ppl and the majority say girl friend
For Me GIRL Is One Of The Most Difficult English Word Pronunciation. I'll Keep Practicing. Beautiful Video Thank You So Much👌🌺💖
Thanks for sharing Bertha!
I'm born and raised in the US. Surrounded by American accents my whole life. I have never been able to pronounce "girl" and it's so frustrating :(
Yasar Hawkins congrats
Yasar Hawkins Who cares?
Don't worry about it, you just need to practice diferent ways to pronaunciate that, i'm sure that you can do it
Which states?
@@riothedestroyer i've lived in california, nevada, washington, texas, hawaii, and arkansas. spent the most time in california though
oh Gosh. this is impossible ;(
Difficult but not impossible!
WHY? with THIS VIDEO , and she's explication IS SO EASY ! , at least for me was so easy to understand and learn , you can't say "oh Gosh . this is impossible" she put a lot of effort and dedication on this video to you understand and you say it? no , you can't say it , instead of comment this , PRACTICE! , make she feel that someone served him the video that he did so much dedication , for me , it's works and was easy to understand with she's explitation .
the trouble of some learners is that The muscles are not accustomed to these positions, but with a little training we are able to overcome this
is trinity kindred viable?
Felipe Blanco , are you wondering me if Trinity is viable on Kindred?
Me As an Arabic native speaker
I found it out hard to pronouns it because the American R followed by dark L but now its seems more easy for me
Thank you miss Rachel you are the best ❤
Thank You Rachel!
i have been struggling with the "rrr" a lot in past , so was gonna give up on it ,and go for british english ,where they dont have much use of it .. but after this vedio ,i think m gonna stick with the "r" .. thanx for this very detailed explanation Rachel.
You are great! I love the way you teach so simple and easy 👍
Thanks for watching Luna!
I never thought I would be able to say girl before. Thank you very much for helping 😀
My pleasure!
Using my hand and doing it slowly it really helps. Thank!
Rachel, i have more than 20 years learning and improving my english, and up until now I have been struggling pronouncing these two words: Girl, Murder, Murderer. Combining RL, DeR is challenging. Saying Girl sounded like I was drowning, the tip of the tongue was so curled up so when changing to the Dark L, the tip of my tongue flapped making the flap T sound to change to the Dark L. 20 years... until NOW. I finally understood my BIG mistake, I was making too much effort curling the tongue up, It needed to be way more relaxed so the transition to the Dark L is smooth. I want to cry :'( I finally made a perfect Girl pronunciation. It took me an hour to finally make my brain control my tongue correctly. THANK YOU RACHEL. You explanations are honestly THE BEST. Please make a video with MURDER and MURDERER pronunciation. A BIG BEAR HUG.
Thanks a lot! Great suggestion as well:)
Hi Rachel. This is one of the hardest words for me to pronounce in American English, it is so so hard !!!. In British English is much much easier :). Thanks teacher, your teachings are so usefull for me...Thank you very much.
Well done Rachel!! That's magnificent! I had never known this difference before you taught.
Very good explanation.
Thanks!

Because of your lessons, i became confident!
Dear Rachel, I love all your videos.One suggestion: what about a video on the vocabulary related to hair-cuts. Believe it or not, lots of foreigners have difficulty in describing in English how they want their hair done. That would be very helpful! Cheers.
Good suggestion Paulo. Thank you!
Teacher, you can make a video where you teach us to pronounce different the sound of the symbols; ɛr, 3r, 3:r and ər? . Please
Good suggestion, thanks!

You're so welcome @user-vc2tx5ko1u!
American English is my first language but i tend to make a d sound instead of a g sound and i had people be unable to understand me at times so im trying to learn how to pronounce the g sound and i decided to try practicing the word girl because its the one i have the hardest time with to my knowledge.
Thank you Rachel. 'girl' is such a tough word for me as is 'world'. do you have a video on 'world'? also please make a video on pronouncing 'year'. Thanks from Iran.
Thanks for these great suggestions! If you know IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet), you can look up these words on tophonetics.com to get their pronunciations (just make sure to select "American" to receive the American English pronunciation). If you aren't sure about IPA - here is a playlist that teaches it: th-cam.com/play/PL76E3034895AF6FF4.html
I did it but when tried to say it in plural I missed things up.
I wanna speak like you i hope this will be possible in the future! of course with your helps too thank you 😍 when i listen to you i am loving American accent again
Thanks again for watching!
Rachel's English you're welcome 😉
Thank you so much Rachel for your lessons. They're very helpful. Can you please make a video on 'woman' and 'women'?

Thanks a lot Ajay!
actually,i can't thank you enough rachel since my pronunciation is getting better.
i'm in my fouth stage at university in Iraq.My colleagues are astonished how I sound like an American native speaker.
I told them"It is not me.It is my aunt rachel who has tought me to improve my pronunciation"
But i'm wondering why some American speakers pronounce the letter "t" in some words like "certain" as /d/sound while others don't.
Even in the word "sentence",it seems that they do not pronouce it.
That's very great to hear Azhar! You're very much welcome:)
I live in the UK, and I've been living here for 15 years . I would like to ask a question: The word apple here in British English sounds much like an A. Could you make a video explaining the word apple in American English?
Thanks for this question, @ricardomachado6792! I'll see if we can make a video on this anytime soon.
Your lesson is helpful. Explain good
Glad to hear that @MuhammadIbrahim-wi2xh!
@@rachelsenglish ok
one of the firstest words to have learned in English , the hardest word to pronounce, though
Hello Rachel! You speek beautifully!! May you please make a video or give me a tip how to say the words; water, sugar, word, court, curl. I have a hard time when the R is at the end or close to it. It is easy to roll the word together like break. And Should the tongue flip up when one curls it or down. I have heard that the tongue should move back and I have also heard that the tongue should be placed in the midde going up. My R feels like its so dull or empty. I hope you can get back to me.
Can you help us with the word "considerably" ? I find it pretty hard to pronounce correctly. Thank you so much for your useful videos!
