Omg I’m a native English speaker and I’m learning so much about the complex way we use the language without even knowing I’ve been doing it my whole life
Your lesson is pricelessly worthwhile. Thank you Rachel. You just have no idea how much you have contributed to our non-native English learning community.
"Friends" was my favorite when I grew up. It was broadcast in Indonesian television in 1990s when I was 8 to 11 years old. I was completely blank about English at that time (it had Indonesian subtitles), but it ignited my curiosity to learn English. Thanks to my English teacher when I was in grade 8. She was an angel. She taught us grammars and vocabulary in a very simple way just like you, Rachel. Since then, I read English stories and listened to English songs a lot. My English improved drastically until I was 18. I watched a lot of American movies and they introduced me more intimately into American English. I love your channel. It keeps me learning American English and culture.
Us english speakers take it for granted but imagine having to learn this to sound american..... so many shwas :P English is always changing the sounds, not pronouncing letters, or just saying shwa hahaha ! English is the hardest language no doubt!
Anyone interested in learning with me? I'm currently at the proficient C1 level and striving to reach the advanced C2 level. Let's elevate our speaking abilities together😊
Hello teacher, I hope you are doing well. Your videos are really helpful for me to improve my pronunciation and accent, and I would like to request a video on the topic of "Weak Forms" in English. I have trouble pronouncing these weak forms when speaking English. I hope you will consider creating a video on this topic. Thank you so much!
Teacher i love this video ! thanks !! are you going to always upload this series (friends practice clips)when do you have plan that full apload this series plz let me know!
Hi ma'am, i had a question. In the words "ear" and "here" is the /r/ sound preceded by a vowel sound or the /r/ sound is the vowel sound. Also is it similar for the /r/ sound in the word "over".
Thanks for your question! I generally consider R to be a consonant, but when it is UR it can act like a vowel. More on the UR sound here: th-cam.com/video/Ehn6XixUBKs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=aTtKPnSNXkirv-Ef
Hi @Manishpadwa! This is probably because the word is adapted from an Italian word. It's important to look up words like this, since they can be exceptions to general pronunciation rules.
So do we say "If I were there it wouldn't have happened" or "If I had been there it wouldn't have happened" talking about past? Also in school in the 90's they told me that both "If I were" and "If I was" could be used about future/present with "was" used if something is possible and "were" if something is impossible like "If I were born again" but "If I was better paid"
Sometimes for extra clarity, or if they aren't sure what the next word will be, people will use a true T in this word. However, usually if it's linking to a consonant, or if it's ending a thought group, it'll be a stop T. More about the stop T here: th-cam.com/video/rjETn25MuDc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OzvgoE-FPB0-qMlg

Hello Rachel, Could you make a list of fast speak pronunciation Analysis videos or fast friends serie pronunciation analysis videos?
Thanks, that’s a great idea @profesordanielalvarez3498! We’ll work on that.
I have a question..
Why the T in this Latte word not flap T however it's between two vowels?
Hi @Manishpadwa! This is probably because the word is adapted from an Italian word. It's important to look up words like this, since they can be exceptions to general pronunciation rules.
@Rachel's English From Friends, what is that episode?
So do we say "If I were there it wouldn't have happened" or "If I had been there it wouldn't have happened" talking about past?
Also in school in the 90's they told me that both "If I were" and "If I was" could be used about future/present with "was" used if something is possible and "were" if something is impossible like "If I were born again" but "If I was better paid"
You could say either of these options, and a listener would understand them to have the same meaning.
I hear "omnipotent for a date" and then "bigger boots" :( Anyone else?
I like this so much

So many of the Reddit stories on TH-cam that are spoken by robots sound so real, until they mispronounce a very common word .
Should one connect "than" and "ever" in a phrase like "more important than ever"? Would it then become"more important than never"?
Yes, these are usually linked! "Never" wouldn't make sense in this context, so even with a smooth link we can understand that the word is "ever".
@@rachelsenglish Same for "more than one" vs "more than none"?
🙏 THANKS 🙏Beautiful beautiful lady 💞 🙏
You're welcome @user-xy2qh8tg1v!
18:54 : Why is the ''t'' ending of the word ''about'' stop T? Shouldn't Stop T have been between two consonants ? When does it become Stop T?
also we know that if T sound between two consonants ,T drops. Then İs there any meaning of mentioning that Cluster PT,ST,CT?
Sometimes for extra clarity, or if they aren't sure what the next word will be, people will use a true T in this word. However, usually if it's linking to a consonant, or if it's ending a thought group, it'll be a stop T. More about the stop T here: th-cam.com/video/rjETn25MuDc/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OzvgoE-FPB0-qMlg

Were is more implied than pronounced, I'm I right?
They are saying the word "were" each time, but it does happen quickly!
Hello, why are there so few views?😢

please add subtitle to your videos. It would be so better to understand.

Click on the cc right upper corner turn the subtitles
In America say rear, back and England why say different?
Hi @user-un9it7wg5h! I'm not sure what you are asking here. Would you mind rephrasing your question? If it's about different pronunciations or vocabulary between the US and the UK, there are lots of differences. Some of the differences have reasons, but many have just evolved that way over time based on what people commonly say.

That's different in the beginning.
What does she mean by I would wish 3 wishes
She's saying here that it's common for people to subvert a question about what they might wish for by saying "I'd wish for more wishes".
