A lot of the consonant sounds are grouped into pairs. In this video we are going to look at these pairs and how they relate to each other.
We will give a detailed explanation of how they are pronounced and some of the most common example words.
This video is part of our series on phonetics and pronunciation for learners of English as a foreign language.
Phonetics is the science of pronunciation. It can be helpful for people learning English because one of the most difficult things about the language is the spelling and pronunciation. English is not very phonetic and as a result the same letters are often pronounced in many different ways in different words.
The IPA helps by providing a way to write words as they are pronounced. The normal alphabet only has 26 characters but there are 44 different sounds that are used to pronounce words. As well as that, most word in English originate from other languages like Greek, Latin and French to name just a few and in many cases the the language of origin influences how the word is pronounced.
The IPA provides a symbol (phoneme) for each sound so the correct pronunciation can be written or printed in dictionaries.
This video along with the others in our pronunciation series helps language learners to hear the correct pronunciation and also to know how to produce the sound of each phoneme.
Tomorrow is my exam and this helped me a lot! Thanks ❤️
I am just so grateful that I found your videos. Absolutely helpful. Million thanks
You are welcome and thank you for Subscribing!
Wow!!!!!
I didn't know the words can be almost the same as just the consonant difference.
and also thanks for all the videos as I am preparing for an international spell bee.
Glad you like them!
I always understand the way of your teaching sir thanks
Glad to hear that. More videos coming soon I promise. And I hope you can join me in my weekly livestreams. Subscribe to be notified when they happen.
Thank you so much for this. I'm currently taking an TEFL class, and after reading all of our class material I had no idea what consonant pairs were. Watching your video made the light bulb go on. ;)
You're very welcome!
You demystified the whole /theta/ and /eth/ distinction that has bugged me forever. Even though English is my first language, this was pretty fascinating.

Useful info - thnks!
Thanks so much
Perfect thanks from Syria
Great video for practicing sounds
Pretty good video.
When I clicked on this video for the (I think) 1st time, I thought it would be dedicated to the amalgamations (e.g. /t͡ʃ/ and /d͡ʒ/), but I soon remembered that those are called consonant blends instead of consonant pairs.
Now, a correction (I think). Voiceless doesn't have to be aspirated. /p/ is the plain voiceless bilabial plosive, and /pʰ/ is the aspirated form. Voiced plosives can also be "aspirated", but the notation is not the same, since the aspiration itself is voiced along with the plosive, /bʱ/ for example, but I don't think this phenomenon is found in English.
Hello teacher your lessons are wonderful teacher.

SIR I AM VERY GREAT FULL TO YOU YOUR TEACHING METHOD IS ALSO BRILLIANT BUT WHICH EDITOR ARE YOU USING?
ARE YOU AMERICAN 🇺🇸 OR BRITIAN 🏴 OR AUSTRALIAN 🇦🇺? 🤔
It is good teaching, congratulation
👍👍❤️❤️
Bonjour, est-ce que vous avez un astuce pour lorsque qu’on voit un mot comportant le son th, on puisse savoir que c’est un son aspiré ou un son vibratoire? Merci et bonne journée!
Words spelled with the letters th are normally either pronounced /θ/ or /ð/. /θ/ is aspirated and unvoiced, /ð/ is not aspirated and voiced. There is not trick to know when it is each one but if it is at the beginning of a word it is more commonly /ð/ and at the end of a word it is more commonly /θ/.
Fantastic video, although I'm going to be hyper-critical. Your S/Z pairs pronunciation is a bit off. Also 'pronunciation' is pronounced as it is spelt. Not 'pronounciation'. Sorry :)
hola sir!!
Is this an IPA phonetic transcription?
Hi Clarence, I talked about your comment is a recent livestream th-cam.com/video/3jcxalxzSuM/w-d-xo.html

TEFL
Indeed
it becomes boring: here english sounds are taught one by one for completeness sake, whereas many of them exist in one's mother tongue. no need to be taught, at all.
