Oh wow. I finally understand how this quadrilateral works. Thank you!
You are very welcome!
Hey Thank you so much! I’m speech pathologist in Brazil and I’ve been in NYC for 4 years now, english is my second language and it’s so hard for me pronounce all of this vowels! This video made things get clear! 🙏🏻 i hope soon i can be back to my field of work! Congrats!
Thank you so much!!! I'm glad it could help :D
Me too!!
I love how easy and simplified your explanation
Please keep going 👏
Thank you so much Marym!!! Absolutely I will keep making videos :) If there is any particular content you would like to see, please let me know!
Thank you very much for this video! I have to study this in college for phonetics. I never understood the terms close-mid-close , mid-open and open. Now I finally do!!
That is so good to hear!!!! When I first studied this, I didn't either. It's a tricky concept :)
You have a lovely teaching method! Thank you! This information is so important I really want to understand it. I just really want to be an SLP, and school is so hard. I listen to extra study helpers in the shower.
I was so confused during my lecture of this content, thank you for making it so clear!
Your video helped me a lot with understanding the tense and lax vowels! ❤️
I'm trying to teach myself the IPA alphabet and this is so helpful!
I’m so glad!!! I wish there had been something like this when I was in school 😃
Just came across your channel & love your videos. I am in my second semester of grad school! Thanks for the help
Wow your explanation is just amazing❤❤

Maybe if in a next video you explain about the endolabial and esolabial roundedness and how to do it for vowels would be not only interesting but very helpfull too.
😍😍 You are just gorgeous, i understood all these concepts
This is an awesome video. Are you planning a longer video about the quadrant and the sounds? I wish you would. Are you available on any online platforms for training?
Thanks So Much🙏🏻 Helped me in my english test🥰
Tnx for ur summarize explanation
I’m sorry to say this, your video is great and well made, I love it. My only issue is that you pronounce /e/ as /eɪ /and /o/ as /oʊ/ which are diphthongs. In fact, in English is rear to hear those phonemes on their own. Spanish and French have them, you can get a more precise sample of these two phonemes from either Language. Most Spanish speakers (I’m a native speaker) can’t tell apart /e/ and /ɜ/ while in French this sound can change the tense of a verb, usually English speakers have a hard time pronouncing /o/ when learning Spanish, often replacing it with /oʊ/, /ɒ/, /ɑ/ and /ɔ/. I’d recommend to check videos on the phonemes of languages that do have this two sounds in their phonemic inventory to percibe the difference.
This is super helpful and clear. THANK YOU!
You made it easier. Thanks a lot😊Best wishes ❤
شكرا لك على الموضوع الرائع اتمنى لك التوفيق والنجاح
masha allah! this was really helpful! A great help for my exam practice!
This is amazing , please frequently post the videos ♥💛I love you😊
Thank you!
what do you mean with tong advancement? how can one move its tongue forward if it's fixed in your mouth?
Could you explain the differences between two vowels in front mid /ε/ vs /e/ and the two others in central mid except /Λ/ and /ə/?
thank you.
الله يعطيك الف الف عافيه وخير
It is interesting .is any practice tools for practice ?
Thank you so much ❤️
تحياتي لك من الجزائر إليك

Thanks so much for this video ❤
wonderful...
My son does fairly well in speaking after years of speech therapy and having a family of talkers lol. But he struggles with the writing aspect and spelling words.. What kind of help can I get for him with that?? P.s. he does not hear the difference of sounds in short and long vowels.
Now I know, thank you!
Hello miss your video is brilliant.
I have a question How do we describe the short A and the long schwa when it comes to advancement and how high the tongue is?
thanks in advance
Will you please tell me all sounds that are tense?

1:35 "The monophtongs are..."
*proceeds to pronouncing two of them as diphtongs.*
English speakers are simply not built to talk or reason about pronunciation, period.
