I’m amazed by your explanation I finally understand the difference between short and long vowels sounds.May God bless you and your family 🙏🙏
Yes I'm Algerian student thank u
From Italy, thank you.
I'm a native speaker of British English and I'm teaching English to a Brazilian lady, who also knows Italian, but needs to learn English to speak with her fiancé, who is Austrian.
Your video is very useful because you also explain the spelling, which is a puzzle for Italians and even Brazilians because the spelling in their languages reflects the pronunciation more closely, Italian more than Portuguese.
Concerning the differences between British and American English, the only big difference is the short O.
Standard British English also has a complication in the short A, as some words like class, grass and chance are pronounced with a vowel more similar to your short O. This is referred to as the "Trap-Bath split". I say "Standard British English", what many Americans call the "King's English", because in some parts of the British Isles (UK and Ireland), they pronounce these words with the same short A as the Americans. I have read that this is because this pronunciation change took place after the separation of American and British English.
Thanks. Grazie. Obrigado.
PS. Have you done a video for the different short U sound in words like put, pull, wool, wood, foot, etc.
PPS. Your "would", "should" video describes this vowel, but not for the words I mentioned, except wood.
🇧🇩 Teacher, i am from Brahmanbaria in Bangladesh. I am really grateful to you for your Extraordinary class.❤️🇺🇲
Thank you. In my alphabet the sounds of vowels is the same of the name of vowels all the time, we dont have Long and short vowels, we have only 5 vowels and 5 sounds. Colombia
Thank you Nicole. I am from Nepal and my language is little bit similar to some dialect of India. I think we have all these vowel sounds but we do not pronounce English words correctly. I understood how to pronounce the short and long vowels. Great Nicole. You are an amazing English teacher.
Thank you so much! I got a very bad pronunciation. it's very clear from your explaination. I will learn it from your video.
I believe that like native speakers, the first thing an ESL student has to study is phonetics, because otherwise, we begin to learn vocabulary, but mispronounced, and that, what good would it do? if a native speaker would not understand us. I am Venezuelan, therefore, I speak Spanish, and for me, the most difficult sounds are short vowels, because I see that their sounds are very similar, I still cannot master them. I loved your class, thanks for sharing it.
Thanks for your comment. I agree. I think students should learn first by ear, not seeing the words.
Short a is more diphthongized in American English, I think that's the main difference, and the trick to pronounce it. The first sound is just the same.
In the dialects in which short A is not diphthongized it's pronounced more openly, closer to the British RP pronunciation, otherwise it's just a short e that glides toward a schwa.
Also, in many regions and for many native speakers short o and u are merged and therefore but and bot, color and collar are homophones. Don't worry about it too much.
Thank you so very much teacher for your mace
Hello Teacher, Your teaching style is unique and phenomenal

Yes from Saudi Arabia
Please write pronunciation of short E And I clearly
Thanks for your response. Can you explain and give an example of your suggestion? I don't understand what you're looking for.
I happy that I found your video. Thank you! I love it.
Very interesting video, I did learn English on my own so i missed this very important lol, I'm from Guatemala so my first language is Spanish , we only have 5 vowel sounds and I think the short o its the only one we have but it's our A that prounces that way.
Thanks for the comment. Yes, the short o is pronounced the same in both languages, but most Spanish do not recognize this, since we spell it with O. So words like job, progress, and probably have the same sounds as the Spanish a in papa.
@@EnglishWithAccentCoachNicole I dont agree. US version feels like you open more your mouth and is longer. Spanish one is sometimes similar, but at the beginnign of words is more similar to ae apparently
Congrats . I love your class. Thanks for share with us.😍
Awesome, Thank you
You're welcome. Glad you liked it.
Thanks

No, I wasn't taught how to pronounce short and vowel sounds using the phonics system when I started to learn English. I'm from Venezuela.

Hi, I come from Brazil, "Belo Horizonte ".
Portuguese there are only 5 way to speak vowels. a e i o u.
I have liked you to teach.
Thank you for the comment. I love the way Brazilian Portuguese sounds. Such a soft, sweet sound to it.
Na verdade no português brasileiro, quando falamos de som de vogais nós temos 7 vogais: /a/ como em Asa ou fugirÁ , /é/ como em vEla ou cafÉ , /i/ como em Ilha ou açaÍ , /ó/ como em Obra ou avÓ e /u/ como em Uva ou cajU.
Temos cinco vogais letras a, e, i, o, u, mas quando falamos de sons/fonemas temos sete fonemas vocálicos /a/ , /é/ , /ê/ , /i/, /ó/ , /ô/ /u/. Fale as palavras Obra e Ovo em voz alta. As duas começam com a letra O, porém são dois sons diferentes. A palavra Obra tem o som /ó/ mesmo som da palavra avÓ enquanto a palavra Ovo tem o som /ô/ mesmo som da palavra avÔ. Agora fale as palavra Eva e Ele. Embora as duas palavras comecem com a letra E , o som em ambas é diferente. Eva tem o som /é/ como em café e a palavra Ele tem a vogal /ê/ como em você.
------------
Portanto, temos sete sons de vogais:
/a/ como em Asa ou fugirÁ
/é/ como em vEla ou cafÉ
/ê/ como em EstrEla ou vocÊ
/ó/ como em Obra ou avÓ
/ô/ como em Ovo ou avÔ
/i/ como em LIvro ou AçaÍ
/u/ como em Uva ou cajU
Thank you 🙏
Great!!

Hi for training better English what type of film watch English introduce for me
Thank you so much, I am so grateful to you. I am feeling so happy that I cried of happiness. I was struggling with these vowel sounds, but this class has helped me a lot. You did such a great job.
Thank you for letting me know. I'm so glad to have helped.
Hi, from Nepal
I’m from Cambodia
Now I am studying English at school , but I am still confused between two dots : i and without two dots : I .
Good point. The : shows that the sound is lengthen. It is mainly used with British IPA, not so much with American. Take a look: American IPA chart: americanipachart.com

@@EnglishWithAccentCoachNicole thank you so much for this,😍

As a child, I was not ever taught phonics: long and short vowel sounds.
For twenty years, I lived at the Laconia State School and Training Center
where the teachers taught me such poor academy skills. Today, I lack
education as a result of that.
Yes from federal republic of Somalia
Thanks for your response. Good to hear.
Hi my teacher
Can you clarify the deferent between “each one” and “everyone everyday” and so on
Rabee from Iraq
Hi Rabee. Thanks for your question. This is a difficult question to answer. Very often "each" and "every" are interchangeable, but not always. I did a quick internet search and found a good answer for you: www.grammarly.com/blog/each-and-every/. You cannot use every when there are only 2 things, like ankles (in the example given). Hope that helps.
I haven’t had any class about phonetic or spelling. Now it is to hard for me try to read and understand how can I pronounce the words are written. I’m from Mexico

Hej, thanks for the video ,i am from Sudan, what is the difference between bot & but in pronunciation
Good question. Bot has a short o and but has a short u sound. Short O: th-cam.com/video/XZtAR0CWf-4/w-d-xo.html. short U: th-cam.com/video/NWUPV-Cvwwk/w-d-xo.html
Amaziiiiiiiiiiiiiiing from cairo
Thank you so much. I appreciate your kind words.
As per the rule of 2 vowels = long; 1 vowel = short; is there a chance that loose and lose are an exception?
This is somewhat of a guideline, but there are many cases where single vowels are pronounced with their long sounds, like the A in native and the i in silent. And there are many exceptions, especially in common words. "Loose" has a long oo sound. "Lose" looks like it should have a long O, but it's an exception word, pronounced with a Long oo also.

@@EnglishWithAccentCoachNicole Thanks but you explained

No, I am from Greece, and learning English here I never learned phonetics.
Thanks for the reply. I hope the video helped.
Iam from sudan
I'm from India I never learned phoentic sounds I speak English good but not in proper sounding
Thanks for your reply. Hope my video helped.
No,Uganda that time they used letter names
Thanks for the reply. Hope the video helped.
I got an important question .. what's the difference between 3: , E:
This is British IPA, so I can't say for certain whether those are interchangeable or not. American IPA uses /ɛ/ without : to represent the E sound in "bed". americanipachart.com. I see all kinds of variation in various British IPA charts I find online. It appears that /3:/ is pronounced with tongue more in central position, whereas /ɛ/ has the tongue in front. I suggest consulting a British pronunciation expert for specifics.
