  • @VanillaCuckoo
    @VanillaCuckoo Před 3 lety +13

    A couple of notes on differences in British pronunciation:
    6:50 Niche. The word 'niche' is always pronounced "neesh" here in the UK, never "nitch". I've only ever heard the "nitch" pronunciation occasionally from Americans.
    1:19 Salmon. The letter L is never pronounced in the word 'salmon'; it is silent in both the United States and Britain. Even the clip of the British example didn't include the L sound! No matter where you are, the word is always pronounced "sam-n".

  • @ahmeds4
    @ahmeds4 Před 4 lety +13

    6:03 I remember once I was talking to a native speaker, here in the states, and I pronounced the word with silenced t, but she didn't understand it. I repeated the word multiple times, yet she didn't get it until I wrote it down.
    I thought she was correct, but now I realized that I was saying correctly, thank you!
    & yeah, I will show this video to her and she'll hate for that lol

      I've heard a few of my British friends say salmon with the "l" included... but there are many dialects, accents, and idioms within each major language group, so really, it's not 100% accurate to say that native speakers of one language always our never say something one way or the other. I grew up speaking American English from the NW, but I've also grown up with certain pronunciations that are non-standard for sure, but know many people of the English language that would never say things the way we say them and the true in reverse. Language is such a fluid, diverse creature, I think all the differences make it so fun!

    As long as the word “gift” is pronounced with a G, I will continue saying Gif. I don’t care what that one guy calls it.

    From Spanish, Americans pronounce burrito as “burreedo” with the d sound instead of the t sound like many English words so that like dirty you know what I mean Ms. Marina?

    • @PropertyOfK
      @PropertyOfK Před 4 lety

      Oh, American English loves to make soundings where they are not in the original word. You can also be mad that they do not use rolling r ; ) in Poland people often say TORTILA with l instead of j, it hurts my ears, always, even before I started to learn Spanish.

    • @enzodimasi8248
      @enzodimasi8248 Před 4 lety

      PropertyOfK well tortilla can be pronounced with j or y sound depending on where you’re from. Also, Americans don’t have the rr sound so it makes sense that it’s hard for them

    • @PropertyOfK

      @@enzodimasi8248 oh, for me J sounds like Y in yacht, I'm talking about european spanish more than latino spanish - btw what I said about the word wasn't about J or Y, it was just L : ).
      If we are using word from other languages we should pronounce them properly. I can understand english R, the mouths are shaped differently, after a whole day working in english I have some issues with rolling r too. But still, for me it's a matter of respect to other language.

    • @enzodimasi8248
      @enzodimasi8248 Před 4 lety

      PropertyOfK i understand that, but when the words are added to the language, they belong to the new language as well. They adapt and change with the language and the rules and pronunciations of the language. If there is a sound in a word taken from a language that doesn’t exist in English, it seems unlikely that everyone would learn that sound just to pronounce that word.

    • @PropertyOfK
      @PropertyOfK Před 4 lety

      @@enzodimasi8248 but your example with burrito shows the laziness, because it's not hard to pronounce. I know the languages are flexible, but english/american ignorance is something that grinds my gears a lot. Look how they butcher the names of known people - simple example: Einstein should be read Einshtein with that "sh" sound, complicated? no, do they say it that way? never, why? because they don't care. Unfortunately it's as simple as that, even open Americans think that everything is about their country. I know just a few who do try to change their attitude a bit, especially when they started working with Poles.

    He may have said jif, but its gif because it is an acronym where the g stands for graphical. Also language is defined by its speakers. If the people decide some pronunciation is correct it’s correct. Native speakers like myself will pronounce a number of these words as is technically “wrong”
