I really love that you call "ee" and "i" sounds tense and lax, it's much more clear and helpful (especially for me as a singer) than the way we were taught in school, calling them long and short
@@SpeechModification it's my pleasure talking to you always and gaining precious information I'm so attached to the English language to the point that I'm seriously thinking of moving to USA or canada and leave My work in Dubai
Hello ma'am, thanks for coming up with these videos daily, really helps in improving the language. I just had one query, you mentioned chair having diphthong but the Oxford dictionary mentions it is pronounced as 'cher' in American English, while in British English it got that diphthong. Please express your views
Hi, we use /er/ which is a diphthong gliding from /e/ to vowel "er." British uses /eə(r)/ which is gliding from e to the British r (which they are representing as a schwa marked with the (r). Here's a video where I talk about American R vs. British, in case it's helpful for you: th-cam.com/video/PE88nQcbRjI/w-d-xo.html
All of your followers students are gratitude for your efforts that you exert

Yes, I think "long" and "short" are confusing. We teach that to kids for learning spelling but it can be misleading when working on pronunciation.
Thank you Christine!

Interesting!

@@SpeechModification got it, thanks
Help please 'correct' word.
Thanks for the suggestion, I can cover your word in a future class.
Maybe it would've been a good idea to include "well". To me, it sounds similar to will.
Yes, agreed, I did so in this video: th-cam.com/users/liveOjv4v2iP1FQ
I say Real, not wheel 😂
