Hi Rachel, I have a problem with ED pronunciation ex watched ? how do you pronounce this? Please make a video for this pronunciation. Greatly appreciate your help.
You should make a video about :"What will happen if you use the incorrect grammar in the conversation?" :))
I agree
Hello, in this video, for the w sound should i release the vocal cords before the next sound or i have to rounded my lips and release the vocal cords after the next sound as in what /wʌt/ .
You can't really say the W consonant sound in isolation - it is really created by moving into a following vowel sound. So I would say that you would release it into the following sound in order to make it clearly.

Did you know that the word why /waɪ/
Is phonetically considered a true thiphthong i.e. three vowel sounds or semivowel + a diphthong pronounced together within the same syllable?
Some linguistics say that in words like
Fire , flower and employer , for example, occur thiphthongs , others however, say don't because these three words can be pronounced like two- syllable words: fire /'faɪ ər/, flower / ˈflaʊ ər /, foyer /'fɔɪ ər /.
So in these words actually occur a sequence formed by diphthong + vowel (in the following syllable)
In IPA transcriptions diphthongs are transcribed with two symbols and the second sound of diphthongs can be represented three different ways :
Closed vowels: [i] ; [u]
Near closed vowels: [ɪ];[ʊ]
And with the semivowels (glides):
[j]; [w]
Diphthongs like [eɪ], [aɪ], [ɔɪ], [aʊ],
[oʊ] can be transcribed as [ei], [ai],
[ɔi], [au], [ou] or [ej], [aj], [ɔj], [aw]
[ow].
Diphthongs like [eɪ], [aɪ], [ɔɪ], [aʊ], [oʊ] are called falling diphthongs and sequences formed by [ j ] + vowel sound and [w] + vowel sound as in the words yes [jɛs] and wet [wɛt] are called rising diphthongs.
So in words like why [waɪ]~[wai]~[waj] and yolk [joʊk]~[jouk]~[jowk], phonetically occur true triphthongs.
Thanks for this! I have learned this in some of my studies, but have been selective as to what language I use for students in order to simplify an already complicated language! :)

I'm Tusar. I'm from Bangladesh. I have a weakness in this single word "button" . Would you please help me by making a video about (how to pronounce button in american accent)??
What is the real pronunciation of the letter W? Isn't it pronounced double u? I've noticed Americans usually pronounce "dobiu". Thanks in advance.
how I shall pronuciate this word "repeatedly" thanks
Very interesting:english "w"=belarus"ŷ"👈😁
In Poland (Podlasie) we pronounce "W" as /ɫ/ not /w/. But in same way we pronounce letter "Ł" (L with line) as /ɫ/.
But In Polish
This W Pronounced Like V
And L With Line Is Real W
@@MonsvolIsHolio2 The L with line or Ł for short is more like ll i word dull but darker.
@@mst1717 This Wiem Word In The W Sound Like V, In Polish, It Didnt Have V, It Use W Replace For V, And This Ł Is Sound Like W Like Łyżwy, This Ł Replace For W
@@MonsvolIsHolio2 The letter V is in alphabet but we don't use it. Ł dosen't like W because we not say Vyżwy or Wyżwy we say Łyżwy with Ł and Ł is a Dark L Sound.
@@mst1717 Lets Try
Good after noon mam 🙏
Mam, upper red colour is upper jaw and lower red colour is lower jaw?? Is it so??
And what is below lower lip in white colour ??
Please reply because I am confused
Please reply mam. What indicate the red and white colour in the figure???
Hi Pk! Great question. Actually, the upper red line is the palate above your upper teeth and the lower red line is your tongue position! The white lines are teeth. I hope this clears that up, the most important thing to note here is how low the front of the tongue tip goes behind the back of the bottom teeth. Thanks for your question and have a great week ahead!
Hi and thanks. What is the difference between Pronunciation 'w in quite = kwaɪt' and 'uː in food = fuːd'
Interesting question! This would make a great video! I think you could think of the W including a mini version of the OO as in BOO vowel - but it would be VERY quick, whereas the OO as in BOO vowel in 'food' would have the shape of stress, it would be longer, and much clearer.
@@rachelsenglish Thank you very much for answer, it helped me a lot, I'm starting to learn English
@@rachelsenglish So why not use 'ʊ' sound instead of 'w' in phonetics? What is the difference between ʊ and w? ('w' In words like 'quite' not a word like 'why')
@@rachelsenglish And why 'quite' word has one syllable? Whereas 'w' sound in this word is like 'uː' and 'ʊ' vowels
YO MY WISH
What happened to the whistle?
A common mistake for Latin people is to pronounce the "WH" sound as an "H" in words like HE, HIS, HIM. Do you have a video on this matter?
How to say this sentence ((not at all)
Now I can sing West Virginia
Any Brazilian here?
Wouldn't it be more appropriate to call this letter "wee"?
уууэ)
mam your sound is very2... sweet
I can't get R
I can't get W like Wood, World, whirled
I can't get long I like ice, bike,
Wait, what? Why waDer?
(See what i did there?)
i dont like this whistle
why don't you teach us through movies, because I watch video with English subtitles but the sound is completely different from subtitles ,😢 for example : in the subtitles written " Is it all right if i sit down" but I hear he is saying " is arreffi sitown". I really got disappointed 😞 I am thinking to commit suicide. I wasted loooong years to read and speak well ,but when I watch American movies I don't understand
u have to improve ur listening by movies and u will not waste ur time again
