Outstanding! 🥇🥇🥇
Thanks!
A video about the south african accent please 🇿🇦.
Good video.
Thanks, I will make a video about the South African accent soon!
Hello Ed! Do we need to round our lips (the way we do to produce \w\) to produce the
\ sound?
No, we don't need to round our lips, but the bottom lips usually protrudes slightly
R!!! That’s very difficult for me. 😭
It will become easier with practice!
@@LeanEnglishPronunciation I’ll try my best!! Thank you. 😊
So its like a rolled r but the tongue isnt that far behind in the mouth, its like behind the teeth, innit? I used to pronounce the r sound like a rounded w but with a tiny little bit of rhoticity but turns out, i dont have to do that
The /r/ sound is produced with the tongue positioned just behind the alveolar ridge, it doesn't touch any other parts of the mouth, the lips should be relaxed.
thanks for the video! Is Intrusive R really common among SSB English speakers? Is considered standard?
You're welcome! Yes, the intrusive R is considered a standard feature of almost all English accents
I think its just your accent mate, i show a video from pronounciation with emma and it was completely different yeah
