- In this lesson I’ll explain the British English pronunciation of ‘R’ in different words. In some words the ‘R’ is sounded, but in other words the ‘r’ is silent. I’ll demonstrate the pronunciation, and will give you some sentences to practise on. To finish, you might even like to try this tongue-twister: Round the rugged rock the ragged rascal ran! www.engvid.com/how-to-pronounc...

Such a nice, peaceful and calm way of teaching.
And professional.
👍
Yes. She is great!
I love that way too !!
I love this lady.
Trust me, it gives an impression that you are actually sitting in a classroom learning something important. A Very few teachers has got the ability to create such magical environment that takes you back to your school days. Thank you for your endeavours towards teaching the world.
I feel the same :)
I agree with you, Arunava. I felt like if I were in a British school classroom sitting down in my chair taking notes while she was explaining quietly
I felt exactly the same.
You are right!
Great teacher..bravo!
Gill is patiently teaching listeners step by step and one by one the reasons of pronunciations for permanent memory. She is a great teacher.
Currently, I'm working on a project based on UKI. When I started I had difficulty understanding the British accent but with your classes, I'm not only learning how to listen but also speaking! Hugs from Brazil Gill :)
Real English, from the real person, teaching from the bottom of her heart.
real bri'ish teeth
Ohh yeahhh..
It’s just British English, even tho I live in Uk as a non English speaker I just can’t speak like that it sounds uncomfortable
@@lilmanq7746 It's really a form of English I Was born and brought up in Yorkshire and I can't speak like this it's virtually impossible for me to hold a conversation like this
Go to Boston in America they speak just like that.... Nobody else can understand them....
25 hard years studying English. Finally found this lady to explain it properly.
😁congratulations
@@vikrantChaurasiya1 thanks, she is great)!
@@marinarafik5948 she's great indeed!

AGREE
Thank you so much for this explanation! I've been speaking English for over twenty years, but have never had anyone explain this rule so clearly.
ADDICTED to Gill's excellent (lessons) advices. American English is a bit different and it's so good to have the opportunity to listen to perfect pronunciation and writting of British English! Love it!!! Especially for me being a stranger (french).
I love when she laughs at an American accent. It's so British.
Me too haha
lol
I always do.
Americans laught at british English & british laught at americans English
Akcja XD. All English people laugh at American incorrect pronunciations, because everything they pronounce is incorrect.
she's so sweet, i feel like i'm learning english with my grandma 🥺
Lyhria Same
yes, she is.
You are right
I hâd the same feeling.
Same
I love how Ms Gill teaches us pronunciation. It would be wonderful if there are more videos for phonics.
I love how she shows the mouth position and repeats sounds as slowly as possible, so as to explain the right pronunciation to perfection.
I've been studying English for almost 30 years, never met such a thorough teacher before.
Thank you so much for your lessons Gill!
Wish I had found you sooner! Haha
Thanks a lot Gill
Watching her attempt to pronounce bark in American English, while still keeping a long vowel🤭
My coffee has been changed into a tea while watching this
Edit: Thx y'all for the likes!
xD
@@shawnlee6775 English breakfast tea? LOL...
my teeth changed structure during the lesson
Hahahahaha
😂😂😂
Am I the only advanced English speaker who doesn’t need this kind of lessons at all but keeps on watching them because the lady’s way of teaching is extremely relaxing? 😁😁
Krodino POOPS she is, but I like listening to her because I can understand every single word she speak
@@victorjunco I too. I understand every single word she says and this is unusual. If I think about British rock pop music.... Oh no😊😊😊😊
@@simonamercuryjackson1874 Me too! I love the way she speaks!
😂😂😂
You're not alone. I'm fluent and I keep coming back because she reminds me of an English teacher I had in school, Ms Beryl
My dear Teacher from UK... Thank you for helping us learning this amazing language.
I am from Angola🇦🇴🇦🇴🇦🇴🇦🇴, and I love your channel
It's such a relief to hear your voice, Miss Gill, thank you!
Finally figured out a teacher with satisfying vocal tone
Hidden Cuber At least,she has an English accent.
@@johnrice8786 Yeah. She has many years of experience too. That's why called old is gold
@@hiddencuber2250 "Old is gold". First time I hear that phrase. Thanks for sharing it. I like it.
Sharing is caring.
@@ahdell5536 You're cool. "Sharing is caring". I didn't hear this phrase before.
@@hiddencuber2250 I thank you for your kind remarks. 🙌😀 By the way, my son taught me that phrase, "Sharing is caring". From you I learned, "Old is gold".
Best regards.
-How to pronounce"r" in Spanish?
-rrrrrrrrr
Actually there're two ways of doing it, the one, you've described, is about rr sound, while a normal r is not so much roaring, though compared to English it sounds pretty much like this.
Or Indian... The rrrrr is really a tongue twister... Never to be jumped outta it lol
Have been living in Spain for 17 years and the Spaniah r and the rolling r are still a nightmare to pronounce for me. Asking for a te verde (green tea) or te rojo (red tea) in a bar is no easy task🙄

@@ciarandunne1164 things might turn tough, when English is your first language ...😁
I used to speak American and Canadian English. I came across one of your video clip 👍 love your lessons, you are the best real British English teacher ever!!
Excelente pronunciación del idioma inglés. Se entiende muy bien, es más fácil entenderle a esta bella señora que a muchos cantantes gringos.
Estoy de acuerdo)
This lady is just ADORABLE, I really love her way of teaching and the way she speaks :-)
Me too,amazing!!!!!!!!
Old school teacher. Very nice
@@MM-kz9pd I like her too .
Sameee
Yes and i can understand her. My english is horrible:)
As a native English speaker this video makes me realise just how awkward our language is and how many exceptions there are for every rule. I'm endlessly impressed by anyone who is learning it as a second language!
or as fifth language lol
What a beitifull language
Most of us don't really learn it at school. We absorb it from the popular culture which in our times is just Anglo-American culture sold abroad.
@@magicienthomas8622 i mean, of course asian languages are way different than english in structure etc, but europe (like the "westerns" you called us) is full of other languages that are also built different! For example slavic! (Not to mention that russian, Ukrainian etc Has own alphabet)
In english you can say "play, played, playing" and that's it i guess
But for example in Polish you got
"Grać, gram, grasz, gra, grają, grali, gracie, grająca, grający, grające, graliśmy, gracie, graliście, grałyście, grał, grała, grało" and much more depending on gender, plural or singular time etc! 😁
So imagine if language like that would go all around the world as well haha
British English is exotic and beautiful, wonderful in our ears; I could be listening for hours. The awkward thing, is to use the Latin alphabet to write down in English. The actual language is the spoken one, not the written one; hence there's no awkwardness in the English language.
Ох, как же приятно звучит классическое британское произношение. Прям наслаждение для ушей. И все понятно. Американское r-ыканье с детства не выношу. Мечтаю научиться говорить с британским акцентом, но не получается
Жиза. От американского r-ыканья коробит))
Единственная британка, чей акцент я понимаю. Thanks for the lesson, it was also very useful for Russian speakers
это received pronunciation, если не ошибаюсь
I pronounced each word so carefully that I felt like a kid learning English for the first time lol. I had so much fun!
Same here
@@eylemuren9156 Aynen :D
Same and I'm from England lol.
@@chickenmadness1732 ow fuck,i wanna be like you xd
"R" has been so difficult for me to pronounce the right way, but now I can. Thanks to the perfect teacher. I am subscribing.
Am not British but my country is a commonwealth so we use British English, it is not difficult for me except the "th" sound.
Me too
Still not getting it right! Am Dutch and we sound every letter! Driving me nuts 😂
Don't worry, its correct how you pronounce it ..it just depends on who you are addressing... American,Briton,Australian, Kenyan,etc
just say it like Latino do😌 StRRRong
How peaceful and calmly ❤️❤️ the differences became too easy with your teach.
Thank you 💖💖
She's so sweet :(( the whole lesson made me feel warm 💗
She owns the patience and kindness my own grandma doesn't haha
She is so cute🥺 I’m from Russia and I decided to learn British English. I’m going to win in this language war(I’m not sure about “language war”...🥺). She’s like my grandma, so cutie...I’m going to follow you, wonderful woman!🤍🥺❤️
And do I 💗💗from 🇯🇵
How are you doing?
I would request a bit more respect for this Queen of teachers, rather than referring to her as "cute". She is very serious and her methods are not only professional but also brought to perfection. Although I know how do you mean it :-).
@@lubos4639 Im from Russia and I want to make it more clearly for you. In Russia we have a world "милый", althrough it is translate like "cute" it have a lot of difference in meaning. Rissian cute is smth between graceful, charming and nice. It isn't always cute and sweet)))
Да, очень приятная женщина)) у нее голос асмрный))
Слушай песни Джеймса Бланта. У него очень красивый английский.
I found my teacha
Where is the R ?
@@dkpchry I don't know
@@JohnRyanMagalona lol
@@dkpchry he wrote it this way on purpose. Smh
lmao
The most brilliant lesson on the R sound! Thank you!
Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I hope other people struggling with pronunciation all over the world would learn from this, brilliant job. xxx
Hi
I really enjoyed listening to your way of explanation. As a teacher of English language you are brilliant.
''Uh?'' Her face !! Loving her, she's so cute, and the way she speaks is so relaxing !
Yeah I agree
She looks like an alpaca, with glasses
@@shinraay is that supposed to be an insult?💀 or not, because alpaca is cute..
Lady Unairis no she is cute.
Hi
She's my favorite english teacher ❤ Thanks from Brazil
Também é minha favorita.

Excellent explanation Gill! Thanks a lot! I"ll give this class to my own students!
A very concise lesson about the pronunciation of 'r' sound. I often get confused. She is so experienced in teaching English. Thank you!
This sweet lady is an inborn teacher, who loves teaching and equally makes her students to love learning. She's a clone of my lovely first-grade English teacher, Mrs. Aurora Beaumont.❤
She is full of energy and passion. I love to see her teaching. God bless her.
Me too
Wow! What a perfect lesson! Mrs Gill, you are a great example for all the teachers.👍❤😍💐
Gill is the perfect teacher. Excellent lesson! Thank you so much! It helped me a lot! ❤❤❤
I've found the best English teacher on TH-cam. She's very clear, has a perfect pace and a beautiful British accent. It's very pleasant to learn with her. Thank you, lady, for sharing your knowledge! Greetings from Brazil!🙏🌹👍💪
She's one of the great teachers I've come across; peaceful, calm, funny, focused and humble.
With this kind of teacher, there will never be dull moment in class.
God bless you ma'am🙏🏽
Hello , my name is Gilmar. How are you ?
The best video about how to pronounce 'R' in British English that I ever watched. It helped me a lot. Thank you so much, Gill!
❤️👍 Creo que finalmente encontré una excelente profesora con quien aprender el correcto inglés! Thank TH-cam for sharing.
Why is this recommended and why am I here? I’m British
ᄋ__ᄋ same 😂
Now you're twice a brit
teach us
This is exactly what i feel 😁
Probably because you're pronouncing British - "Buh-ish" :P
I wanna say that when I saw the video was 17 minutes long I didn’t expect to watch the whole thing and just skip to the bits and pieces but to my astonishment I watched the whole thing. She made me feel like I can learn from this and stay focused. She has a soothing and calming tone. I like her. Moah of her British English lessons please.
Yes, we want moah!
Wonderful teacher! I enjoyed very much your class; although I have been taught American English, your class is highly valuable to me.
I kindly appreciate your work in terms of teaching English Courses, so we are very blessed.
Great thanks!
Asmr + learning. My day is complete.
She's the best teacher ever. Love her English lessons
You are the best teacher I have ever seen, I like the way you teach not only but also the way you explain to the students, you have a very excellent potential and knowledge to teach.Frankly if I had known you before I believed my english could be very perfect.
A beautiful lesson there. It is very fascinating. She's into an in depth study. I love your teaching
I'm a native English speaker and even I want her to teach me english

Thank you for sharing your knowledge with everyone, you are a beautiful person.
Calm and great learning for us Thanks

This is great. I'm a native Spanish speaker but I've been learning English for years now. But I like British English pronunciation better. So this explanation makes it easier. Although I do have to practice a lot to make a good pronunciation hehe. Thank you for your teachings madam 🥰
Thank you Gill for teaching us
i couldn't avoid thinking when Hermonie explains how to say the spell.. this video was so useful, at least for me because when i was studying english my schools were not too good so i learn a Broken english a bit from US and a bit from British. :) loved your class! if i would liked to you as my english teacher back then.
You're a lovely lady. I live in the UK, I'm French but the R sounds is still a difficulty at times because it's so subtle! Thank you so much Gill!
Wow excellent explain, pronunciation and sound what we searching always because when we talked with British people lots of people don't understand our sound so it's very very helpful for us
Thank you!! Lately I'm watching your videos and they are very helpful, very clear and accurate.
