I ❤ the clarifications! You teach very well! Thank you so much! I can comprehend the sayings by the context, but now I can understand it in details. Thanks a billion 🎉🎉🎉
There is no way how not to improve the listening skill with a lesson like this. Amazing class. ( IF my sentense is wrong, feel free to correct me) greeting from Brazil
I'm very grateful to hear those things from your good teachings. It calls my attention and i appreciate this good work that you've done. Thank you very much for your help
At the first time I didn't hear anything but once you clarify I understand better and that's amazing❤ thank you so much ❤there no way we can pay you back but the plan is to show we are appreciated 🎉😊
Hello Rachel, this spoken phrase "don't have to " Chanler said who sat on the chair and suddenly stood in order to respond to the girl in Freinds Show that you had uploaded analysis you had uploaded if you remember Mrs. Rachel.😂 I understood many of the clip but I played it three times in a row. Thank you Mrs. Rachel you've helped me understand many of movies and TV shows but understanding African-Americans are still really hard for me they speak in a way that I can't realize
thankyou for your lesson. I wonder how to pronounce the words like completely,exactly,obviously, are the T or b words need to say it stressed or not.please make a new video.thanks
Thanks Rachel! It's not easy to me. But with your videos I'm learning to ear and understand a little. I can say the number four: "little of it". Step by step, I'll can do it.
🎉🎉🎉 all of it but by using headphones I am not sure if I can get the same result without them, but all of this because I have been working with you for 5 years for now. So thank you a million❤❤❤. by the way I liked your free course a lot God bless you😍😍😍
Hi, Rachel! I have a pronunciation question that's annoying me. According to dictionaries, the "th" in the word "with" is pronounced as ð. However, I found these two examples (and more than two) where speakers pronounced it as θ instead of ð. There are they: 1- The big bang theory season 2 episode 21 timestamp: 15:41: "I really don't wanna have this conversation wiTH (θ) you". 2- The big bang theory season 2 episode 10 timestamp: 11:59: "You wanna come wiTH (θ)?" Is there any explanation for this? Is it ð or θ?! Thank you so much❤❤❤
Hi Baloza! WITH is a unique word, because the TH can be pronounced both ways! Sometimes speakers will match the TH (voiced or unvoiced) with the sound after it (voiced before voiced, unvoiced before unvoiced), but not always.
Hello ! I studied English for 6 years in school then I went to the USA to study. I watch English and American movies for years. I know other languages : French, Dutch, bases of Germain and dialects from my country, Belgium. I watch the Monty Pitons as well as American movies without understanding problem. Phil. Peace.
Awesome video. That's exactly how I taught English about 25 years ago-except you're going into much more detail, Rachel. Another very interesting feature is the protagonists' body language: Nonverbal behavior like body movements and posture, facial expressions, eye contact, hand/arm/shoulder gestures, and tone of voice all contribute significantly to how they both communicate. Learners of (North) American English should also assimilate this in a US or Canadian environment.
A little of it. It was hard to me. There are other series more easy to catch the sounds like Friends. But it's necesary all kind of tv shows. Rachel you're a great English teacher, your help is invaluable. One question. How can native English speakers understand each other when accent is so strong? For example Australian or Jamaican accent. Ohhh Thank you for you now i realise that context is important to understand English contrast between stress and unstressed words.
Thank you, I'm glad you're finding the videos helpful! As for understanding English dialects, it can take some practice, even for native speakers. If we hear a dialect we are unfamiliar with, it can take our ears some time to catch onto the different vowel sounds, intonation patterns, and vocabulary/idioms of the new dialect.
You are fantastic i am from Egypt i always follow your tutorials they benefit me alot do advise me to use preply app to speak with native American teacher speaker or not Please suggest me some sites to communicate with native speakers it is preferable to be free sites i wish you read my comment i really love your tutorials ❤🥰
I'm glad you're enjoying my videos! I think lessons, tutors and conversation partners are all good to help with building your skills and confidence! My Academy offers the option to purchase private lessons with REA teachers, and includes free access to the REA Community group where you can post and get teacher feedback, or meet conversation partners who are fellow students. To find native conversation partners, I recommend iTalki or Preply. Good luck!
Omg.. I got more out of this than I did in 10 years of education (i'm a foreign). They never taught me this way. Much more efficient. In schools they mostly focus on grammar..

This doesn't have much to do with this particular episode, but I'm shocked that not pronouncing the h in when, where, whale, white. My maiden name is White and I have always pronounced it with the h being sounded! When did this become a thing to drop the h sound.
Hi @itsthevk! It's very common in American English to drop the H in WH words. Interestingly, we sometimes alternatively drop the W and keep the H, such as in "who" and "whose".
Hi @a-note76! Yes, once the brain isn't focusing on understanding the meaning, it's easier to relax and focus on how the words are pronounced. It's great to use transcripts in your practice, since it helps you to develop your ear training skills.
Hello Rachel's English. Im looking for a video(learn english with movies)that has a two white ladies with a dog. One of the ladies says that she's looking for a job. The other lady saysb to her that since she likes animals she's going to recommend her to her sister, more or less. I can't find it. Thank you !

Once I know the transcript, I can hear all. Why is that?
Probably because you can read what's being said. If something is said you don't understand you can read it to fill in the blanks.
@@floydiandreamscapes5145 how could somebody get over it?
Hi @a-note76! Yes, once the brain isn't focusing on understanding the meaning, it's easier to relax and focus on how the words are pronounced. It's great to use transcripts in your practice, since it helps you to develop your ear training skills.
The same here, but at least it's good to listen to i'm not the only one 😅
Most of it with noise around me😀

I understand nothing...
“That’s your mom signature?” grammatically is not a question. “Is that …?”
It depends on the entonation. Ejm wanna beer? Is the same as Do you want a beer?
It's acceptable in spoken English.
