★★ WHAT THIS VIDEO IS ABOUT★★
In this video we are going to have a look at the structure of syllables. Syllables can consist of three parts: an onset (= one more more consonant sounds at the beginning of the syllable), a nucleus (= exactly one vowel sound in the middle forming the core - it can be a monophthong, diphthong or triphthong) and a coda (= one or more consonants at the end of the syllable). Each syllable must have a nucleus. Onset and coda are optional in syllables. We are going to learn the terms zero onset, open vs. closed syllables and then we are going to look at plenty of examples. At the end, there is also a fun fact for you!

Tq dear from india
Hello! I really love your videos and the excellent explanations you give! I still don't understand when a syllable is strong or weak :( any tips?
Hello! I have separate videos on sentence stress & weak forms on my channel, you can find them by going on my main channel and then using the channel search bar there 😊
I have some questions need your help to answer.
Why does the native speaker usually speaker wrong way with syllable division in dictionary? For example: the word 'city', in Cambridge Dictionary write /ˈsɪt.i/ but native speaker always speak /ˈsɪ.ti/, they don't blend the /t/ sound in the first syllable, they speak /si/ instead /sit/ for the first syllable. Could you explain more about this one?
Thank you so much for your time!
Some consonant combinations are not allowed in English such as - tl and ks. But we have ks sound in - x
for onset, it’s possible for coda
Does English and other languages more than syllable set ups???
Could I have example words on the following: Σcv, Σ (c)v, Σcv(c) & Σ (c)v(c)?
Excellent explanations. You are probably the best (stranger) teacher😅. I did my exams after going through these and I'm proud I passed.
Thank you so much💙
Thank you! 😃 Well done on passing your exam!
❤❤
Hello Dear Billie, I have troubles with linguistics,i'd like you help me,(what is common between synchronic and diachronic study? What is common between syntagmatic and paradigmatic?)
A good question. I will consider this for a future video!
Can you please make a video on Cardinal Vowels?
OK, I'll consider that!
@@BillieEnglish Thank you so much!💕
Pls what is the peculiar nature of syllabic consonant?
Hello Maureen! I covered that topic here: czcams.com/video/Nb3xhaPwoyc/video.html
Hi, I need your help, may be could you help me explaining how we can divide phonology a syllable in English please, I gonna have my phonetics exam 🥲🥲
Please 🥹🥹
In the word "stardust" st/ is the onset and st/ is the coda. And which one is the nucleus (peak)?
"stardust" (/ˈstɑːr.dʌst/) consists of 2 syllables. They are 'star' and 'dust'
'star' consists of st-a-r (/st/ /ɑː/ /r/; CCVC)
'dust' consists of d-u-st (/d/ /ʌ/ /st/; CVCC)
So stardust as a whole has the structure CCVC'CVCC.
I hope I could help you :)
This word has 2 syllables!
👉 first syllable: /st/ is the onset and the /a:/ the nucleus, there is no coda
👉 second syllable /d/ = onset, /ʌ/ = nucleus, /st/ = coda
In English, all onset consonants are allowed as English codas, apart from /h/. What does it mean give an example
That's the thing: there are no examples! There are no English words that end in the sound /h/ (not the letter H!). It's the only sound that cannot come last in a word.
Thank you so much Ms. Billie in English, you made my life as a BAELS student enjoyable 🫶🏻
Do the non native English speakers must be always aware of the vowels and consonants at the time of reading and writing? Kindly explain clearly .❤
Understanding syllable structure is not necessary to speak English fluently. I am teaching this because many of my viewers study English phonology to design speech systems and for that purpose this is important!
If you provide a vedieo on pre inetial, inetial,and post inetial+ inetial final , inetial final 2 inetial final 3 ,and inetial final 4 up till 9.00 caus I have paper tomorrow 😢😢 not too long just short .

I'm wondering, how do I break down "Queue"?
Hi! "Queue" = /kju:/ only has an onset /kj/ and nucleus /u:/ 😊
How to define the onset, nucleus, and coda in a sound temperatures? I'm still confused
I have no idea! What degree do you study that you have to consider sound temperature?
what is allophones (voicing)😊
Allophone are the phonemes but in different phonetic environment
Hi
Send her this message. Syllabic consonants, I believe, are assumed in the theory just to save the collapsing umiversal principle that a syllable must have a
voclic nucleus.
Send her this message. Syllabic consonants, I believe, are assumed in the theory just to save the collapsing umiversal principle that a syllable must have a

If nucleus consists of only 1 vowel sound, then how come diphthong or triphthong in 1 nucleus? This seems confusing :(
We can talk about 1 vowel sound not a short vowel sound. So we can say that 1 vowel sound can be consisting of diphthongs or tripthongs.
Can I get a contact number to answer some questions?
How about the word ‘Stalinist’?
What about it? It's got 3 syllables. Do you want the structure for one?
@@BillieEnglish Thank you for your reply.
I wanted to say that the word 'Stalinist' begins with the /st/ onset & ends with the /st/ coda just like the word 'stardust'.
Will you clear me about consonant cluster
The consonant letter have same manner of articulation but different places of articulations are only form consonant then how
