That's awesome! lol. I didn't know. That reminds me of living in Thailand. The word for rice is "cow." And they eat a lot of rice, so it was funny to always think about cows when I was eating rice. What's funnier is the word "moo" means pig, but in English "moo" is the sound a cow makes.

Thanks for watching. Honestly, the sound in the diphthong is more similar to a long e sound for me (like the e in "me"). If you try to combine ɑ with the ɪ sound in "big", it won't sound right. I would try combining it with the long e sound instead, so you end the sound with a wide smile. I hope that helps!
@@RobertTeachesEnglish thanks for answer me, is it the same for the diphithong ɔɪ? and the diphthong aʊ i always hear the ʊ more like u, is it correct?
@@RobertTeachesEnglish thanks for answer me, i so happy for found your video, i watched another videos but they said that the ɪ in the diphithongs like aɪ and ɔɪ was with the sound of short i, and the ʊ as in the diphithong ɑʊ was like the pure ʊ and i can't do these sounds together, but now i understand it, i'll subscribe me in your channel
@@janildesilva7847 Thank you. Officially, and based on the linguistic symbols, those teachers are telling the truth, but I think teachers get to hung up on teaching rules, and they forget to use common sense and trust their instincts. I remember being shocked during my linguistic course when I learned those as well. It just doesn't sound that way. Even if we are , in fact, combining those sounds, I think at least by aiming for the other sounds, we will get better results. Thanks for subscribing. I hope you find the rest of my videos helpful as well.
The diphthong au is pronounced differently in British English, right? I first started with British English and as far as I remember that they start it with the ah sound as in father, am I correct?
Hi robert! At the beginning of this video i heard you saying "diphthongs in the American english", do you mean they are not the same in the British one?
Please help!!! The diphthongs / eɪ / aɪ / aʊ / and / oʊ / may sound like / ɛɪ / ʌɪ / ʌʊ / ɔʊ / . Or these are new different sounds that I need to learn
Hi Roberth ! Very nice video. Just one question. I've been looking for info about this amazing topic as Phonetics is and I noticed in american english there are lots of vowel sounds. Could you please tell me how many sounds there are in american english? Please let me know ASAP. It'd be great because I'm a teacher who is going deeper and deeper in this topic. Thx in advanced.
I teach 20 on my channel if you include the schwa sound and r-controlled vowels (the last 5 are coming out on Friday), but some recognize one more. This is because older generations and certain regions will still use the ɔ sound, while most of us only use the ɑ sound. You'll see other lists that don't include r-controlled vowels. The general consensus is either 15 or 20, but it depends on who you ask.
I just released this FREE Pronunciation Guide for the long e and short i sounds! ➡ tinyurl.com/ybd987dx
Great job. I liked the video. Well done 👍
Thanks so much!
The ɔɪ sound is exactly how we say "hi" in Portuguese. It was funny listening to you saying so many "hi" to me haha

@@rustamxunoldi5605 I'm not offended
i like this video.
I liked your video sm, i learned sm here, but i have a question, the sound ɪ in the diphithong ɑɪ is more like the sound "bIg" or "familY?

@@janildesilva7847 Yes! I agree completely. It does sound that way. You've got good ears. I'm sure you're doing a great job with your pronunciation.

Hi robert! At the beginning of this video i heard you saying "diphthongs in the American english", do you mean they are not the same in the British one?
The definition of a diphthong is the same, but the sounds are not all the same.
Thank you so much 🇲🇦
You're welcome. 😬
i like /oʊ/ sound.
Nice, i liked this
Thanks for watching!
Thanks you for sharing
You're very welcome 🤓
Thank you so much...

Please help!!! The diphthongs / eɪ / aɪ / aʊ / and / oʊ / may sound like / ɛɪ / ʌɪ / ʌʊ / ɔʊ / . Or these are new different sounds that I need to learn
Very impressive
Thanks!
How about /iə/ as in the word 'really' /ˈriəli/ or in word 'theater', is it a diphthong in American English?
Most Americans pronounce really as "rilly." For Theater, it's just two separate vowels-long e and short u.
So I can say that you (ju) and I (ai) are diphthongs! 😂😂
I now understand it
Glad to help!
good.
Thanks!
