You seem like a nice lady, thank you for helping people with their English skills.
Thanks!
OMG this is what i always want to find
I'm learning English
Very useful thanks ❤️
Thanks for your support!
As a native speaker, I feel it’s important to note that you’ll hear “she’ll” and “he’ll” rhyme more with “hill” than “heel” most times. When said quickly, they sound like “shill” and “hill.”
Thanks, yes, you're correct. We reduce our contractions further in fluent speech, as long as they aren't the stressed word. I talk about this in many of my practice videos, like this one: th-cam.com/video/tVwBLA_aBiE/w-d-xo.html
It's a helpful lesson! I'd like to thank plenty for your kind. Best regards
Thanks for watching!
this is a very good video. Christine is a true teacher because just when I thought "hill" instead of "heel" it was talked about in the video
Thank you, Christine, it's very helpful and useful to me.❤
Thanks for watching!
Thank you very much, your explanation make my life much easier with English.
Thanks for your support!
Great video. I grew up in Toronto, Canada and we pronounce these contractions exactly the same. I work as an English teacher and I like to get ideas to help my students.
I watched another video on the same topic where an American guy said that he'll pronounce "we'll" the same way he pronounces "wool"...is there anywhere in the States where people do sound like that? Because I have many American friends and none of them sounds like that.
He also says that "he'll" sounds like a mix of the words "hill" and "hole".
Hi, thanks for watching. I think "we'll" and "he'll" typically have a reduced vowel in fluent speech, so the other teacher might have been trying to model that the contractions are not a clear /i/ sound. I can see the vowel being close to /ə/ as well, so maybe the "wool" explanation is partly influenced by the combination of reduced vowel plus dark L. Sometimes my students do better thinking of /ə/ for the reduced /ɪ/ sounds, because they tend to be too close to /i/ when they try to say /ɪ/.
@@SpeechModification Thank you.

Thank you for answering my questions!
Thanks for your support!
@@SpeechModification you are welcome. And i think my comment went missing again. I had a last question in regards to the flap t/d. I will post here again.
In the sentence "but I like you", is the "t" in "but" a flap instead of a real "t"?
Also in "that'll", is the "t" in "that" reduction a flap as well? just like the "t" in "it'll" is a flap (iddle) like you said in your videos?
thank you
Hi, yes, when we link a final T to a vowel, as in "but I like," we use a flap. And in "that'll" we also use a flap, because the syllabic L functions like a vowel. So yes, that'll is like it'll.
@@SpeechModification thank you so much.
Could please make pronouncing video of soon, moon and noon. Thank you for your precious time and great lessons for us.
Break a leg !
Sure, I'd be happy to cover your words. You can get help for the vowel sound in these words in this video: th-cam.com/video/GnGpKB8Lb3Q/w-d-xo.html
@@SpeechModification thanks a lot
Hi, I'll be covering your words on Wednesday next week: th-cam.com/video/Dd4RAEWQhP8/w-d-xo.html
I like the pronunciation
Thank you!
thank you so much!!! , the spellings of the words are so useful !
Thanks for watching!
Thank you, Christine, for another great video.
Thank you for your kindness and support!
About it'll, I think it can be reduced to be pronounced: idl (if I remember, this reduction is mentioned in some of American accent books).
Yes, that's what I describe in this video. I just write it as "iddle" to help people understand its pronunciation (like middle or riddle).
Amazing! Thank you!!!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you teacher for the contractions but now I don't know whether to learn the normal contraction or learn the native contraction I think I should learn the native contraction if I want to learn the pronunciation of these contractions correctly
Hi, yes, you can use the typical native speaker pronunciation in fluent speech. If you're speaking slowly and carefully, it's fine to use the full clear vowels on these as well. We use both as we are speaking.
@@SpeechModification Thank you, I will learn both ways and I will use each one according to the most convenient case.
People think these words don't exist but they do and I've been using lately as a lazy way to not have to spell out the full she will, he will, people'll (people will)

Hello - I am a foreigner living the State for the last 35 years and I can swear that the natives pronounce "Thank you" as "Tann-k you" The hyphen between the n and k, seems to be like a small pause. The 'a' in this word sounds like a long vowel 'a'. This becomes more apparent when the natives speak very fast. Am I the only one that have noticed this sound? Please help.
Hi, I agree that we typically link "thank" and "you" and it sounds more like "than-kyou." The vowel /æ/ in "thank" also sounds a little bit different than the same vowel in words like "that" or "dad" because the "ng" sound raises and nasalizes the vowel. Here's more on that: th-cam.com/video/ffHe3Cc0Nag/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/users/livelNcq1BjUBE8?si=jTeYZeJPy2By3R_f&t=207
HI, madame. He'll vs Heal?
He'll, heal and heel all sound the same, but we sometimes reduce he'll to "hill" in fast speech and we don't reduce the others. I talk about that in the video.
6:39
How about I'll ? pronunciated like AU?
Hi, here's help for "I'll" th-cam.com/video/YHkS8hlkRW8/w-d-xo.html
Mi amor agus
can "there'll" be pronounced the exact same way you pronounced "they'll" in 7:27? I searched for "there'll" on youglish and I feel like people don't pronounce the "r" when they are talking fast, so they pronounce something like /ðɛl/.
Hi, that's a good observation. Yes, I think we do sometimes drop the /r/ or say it very quickly in "there'll." Typically /r/ is not a sound which drops, but in the case of "there'll" /ðerəl/ it may be okay. For clarity, you probably want to leave it in, but move quickly through it. I talk about the word "there'll" in this class: th-cam.com/video/dtJfMdDANZs/w-d-xo.html
@@SpeechModification Hi. Thanks a lot! I'm think I'm gonna use the pronunciation with a "r" to avoid communication errors, but it's good to know how people would pronounce it, so I can understand them.
@@SpeechModification By the way, have you ever talked about the pronunciation of "there'd"? I can't hear the 'd, so I hear only "there". Some people said to me they pronounce it with a glottal stop, which surprises me, cause I've heard I shouldn't pronounce the 'd contractions (I'd, They'd and so on) with a glottal stop because native english speakers could understand it as a "t" sound. Other people said to me they pronounce it with an alveolar tap, but I can't hear it or do it cause the tongue movement it's very hard. Do you have any recommendations?
I think most of the time, I use an unreleased /d/ on "there'd," because it's usually going to be followed by a word starting with a consonant sound. So there'd be, there'd have to, there'd need, etc. would all follow the patterns for final d + consonant sound. In my opinion, it's best to use an unreleased /d/ for I'd, they'd etc, because that's what native speakers do. You just need to make sure you're holding your vowel long enough, that's the way (plus context) that native listeners will hear it as a /d/ rather than a /t/. You can here me talk about stop sounds and how they link here: th-cam.com/video/4j2wAzZDDJc/w-d-xo.html
Hello madame, I have difficult with the word " anatomy"

@@SpeechModification thank you
Hi, I'll be covering your word on Thursday this week: th-cam.com/video/L2nf44cUtTM/w-d-xo.html
Can you please do will he , will she … ?
Hi, I'd be happy to cover your suggestions in a future video.
Hi, I'll be covering your phrases on 10/2: th-cam.com/video/px2muBTQwF0/w-d-xo.html
Have u got Scottish origins? Dunbar is a lovely town here in Scotland
Yes, I think there's some Scottish heritage in my family.
"Taste" please
Good suggestion, I can cover it in a future video.
For "it'll", instead of "iddle", can I say "ill" instead? thank you
Hi, I think you could use "ill" in fast speech, for informal conversations, but depending on the sentence, it might be misunderstood as "he'll" (sometimes we drop the h). It might also sound a little bit mispronounced or sloppy, so I'd try for "iddle" instead.
@@SpeechModification thank you so much
You're most welcome.
@@SpeechModification if you dont mind could you answer my question on the other video. it was about the flap t. I wrote my own understanding. I will tag you again. thank you in advance. 💗
Hi, which video? I've responded to all of your comments that I can see, but if I missed one please help me find where.

What or how to pronounce wdu ? Oh and thanks. Would sounds like it may be the right word to pray it?
Say it or pronounce wdu?
My phone keeps charging my word say to pray. Anoying
I r clear and precise thank you
Hi, I think we'd probably say "W D U" ("double U, dee, yoo") when pronouncing it, if it's an abbreviation. If I had to say it as a word, I'd probably say /wʊ'du/ like "wou-DOO."
i think speak the sound at the beginning of the video first, and explanation later will be good..because we was waiting the Sound pronouce... and just heard long explanation 😂and sitll not yet hear the pronunciation
Hello. I'm interested. In America, they often write in cursive or printed letters?
I'm not sure which is more common, but certainly cursive writing has declined compared to the past.
@@SpeechModification Thanks for the answer. For example, a friend of mine from Florida does not know cursive.
@@romeonickname I think most places still teach cursive, but people don't always use it beyond the time in school when it is required.
You forgot to write I'll
Thanks, I would write "I'll = aisle" (I-yull)
@@SpeechModification thanks teacher.
