    In this video you will learn the 3 subtle differences between the schwa sound in British English VS British u sound.
    00:00 Both sounds
    00:03 Introduction
    01:58 Stress
    03:33 Both sounds in 1 one word

    The 2 differences are:

      Glad you enjoyed it Vitor! The stress of English is quite different to the stress in Brazilian Portuguese (although they are both stress timed languages) so this is a good one to practice.
      Obrigado e abraco!

    Hello Michael. /ʌ/ vs /ə /. Upper. My example sentence is; Many children from upper middle families attend high fees paying public schools. Thank you, Michael for this lesson on /ʌ/ and /ə/ sounds. Yes, I wish to continue learning from you in order to get a clear British accent.
