Ma’am, your classes are perfect! I am having a great time watching your videos! God bless you for you help. I cannot help watching them
Thank you so much, u explains the most difficult parts of English so clearly
Now I understand why sometimes I feel my sentence broke while I talk... it's because like I try to spell every word out, no wonder I often feel my tongue is knotted in my mouth. But to get better with it, I do need to keep practising. This is truly an eye-opener. Love it.

Hello teacher,
Thanks a ton for sharing !!!!
Could you help how to pronounce the Books of Bible?
It's so tough..
I'm not sure I would pronounce them correctly!
❤❤
in the sentence ( I am fluent in a foreign language ) is the letter (a) pronounce like /ə/ Thank you
Which letter a? a in "am" is short e as in egg. a in "a" is /ə/ -yes. a in "lang" is closer to a Long A- as in "aim" but the dictionary calls it a short A. Most Americans raise the Short A before an NG so it's closer to a long A. The "a" in "gauge" is /ə/ or short i- as in itch.
@@SmoothEnglish1 I mean the letter a before foreign. a foreign.
Hello, you said ( I won't interrupt you ) for blending the last T in interrupt and y
is the t and y become /tʃ/ sound in one place using blade of tongue or i make first /t/ sound then move my tongue to /ʃ/ sound. Thank you.
make the ch in one place using the blade of tongue. Otherwise you'll be too slow.
@@SmoothEnglish1
yes your right, you only told me that. Thank you so much.
Hi, thank you. Can you please suggest a book contains all these informations? Please make more videos like this.
No single book has all this info, but I'm working on online courses on Udemy, which will have all this info. Some of them are already out.
@@SmoothEnglish1 Thank you. I have been watching it.
8:45 trick noun /trɪk/ you said tricks
how you make the position or how you move the tongue for tr in tricks are you make the /t/ like you make /tʃ/ then r.
or are you move the tongue from /t/ alveolar to /r/ sound or you make /tr/
Thank you.
Start on the ch position and quickly pull the tongue back for r.
@@SmoothEnglish1
Thank you so much for great answer.
is the letter T before the R change to /tʃ/ sound like ( train or tree )
10:30 can we blend the d and and zh, and just say it like /ri-djur/ 'ɹī-dʒɚ/ ?
Sure, that works. As long as you adhere to the rules of rhythm and don't emphasize those sounds, no one will notice the difference.
@@SmoothEnglish1 Ok thank you for your answer.
Is it up to the speaker to say “visit your” without blending and “visit sher” blending the words?
Yes, the speaker can decide whether to blend or not. We don't always blend, just when we want to be faster.
Why in Colorado they pronounce "ears" differently than how you do?
There is a subtle difference in pronunciation from state to state. I am from Illinois but have been living in California for 22 years. I did live in Colorado for 6 years as a child.
