    Wow! Such an insightful explanation about the role -not only the differences- of strong and weak forms. Thank

    I love your videos, sir. I’d known your channel for a few years now. I hope you continue. For now I’m gonna binge watching your videos which I haven’t watched yet.

    2:07 please you said the word ( and /ænd/ ) can we pronounce like ( /ɛnd/ ) is that right?
    is in this case ( and & end ) Homophones? Thank you.

      For some speakers, sometimes they are homophones, but it's not consistent.

      @@ramzy-6566As I said in the video: Some people sometimes say it this way. Most of your questions are along the line of "What is the correct one?" but the reality is that there isn't ONE pronunciation that is correct or necessarily the primary one because there is so much variation in American accents - even when you look at a specific accent, like Boston, there are variations.

    Thank you! The British say 101 with -n- for "and". What could you say about the ways the US citizens typically say it in numbers? Could you make a video on the /ʍ/ sound? I met a man from Minesota, who pronounced wh- words like hwat, hwich, etc. Really interesting. The transatlantic accent is it?

      Может, я чего-то не понимаю, но при чем здесь transatlantic accent? Разве это не просто 'старомодное', до сих пор кое-где существующее на юге произношение?

    • @AccentHelp

      Many Americans say it the same, but there are variations - the same is true of British speakers. There is not one way that it is consistently said. Regarding WH- words, that's usually more indicative of age/generation. It's very much faded out these days, but some older speakers do make that distinction.

    Hi Jim, I have a question:
    When someone uses the words no, don’t, stone, alone, hole etc.. I clearly hear the sound /ɒʊ/ but it is shown as /əʊ/. I don't hear any sound ''ə'' there at all. Do you know why?

    • @AccentHelp
      @AccentHelp  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's hard to say what the sound is/would be without knowing the specific accent... London-based accents tend to be closer to /əʊ/, while something like Midwest American tends towards /o̜ʊ/ (less lip rounding diacritic) and Northern Minnesota tends towards /o/ and a West Virginia accent is more like /əʊ/ - so specific accents have a good deal of variance.

    Liked it , but I have a small piece of advice , which is to speak more slowly , because almost of your followers are not native speakers 💙

    Thank you! Could you list some common words where the weak form is often used, for example: and, their, when, will...

    • @AccentHelp
      @AccentHelp  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      on, of, been, what, from, you, your, her, his, our, I, some, for, a, so, that, to... - but it also happens with words that we commonly stress, like a person's name, but when it's no longer an operative, so it has diminished clarity the second or third time you say it, when it's almost like a pronoun. In addition, some people speak in almost all weak form, while others may speak in almost all strong form in moments, when they're being extremely emphatic about something.

    Can you do an episode on the accents in the Australian children's show Bluey?
    I think it would be a popular video.
    I was born in England, my mother is English and my father American. Showing Bluey to my son, we thought it was English because we percieved the main characters to have English accents. Turns out it was developed in Australia.
    I've been trying to find out what kind of accent the Heeler family actually has in the show.
