    You're right, there shouldn't be a G sound with ŋ unless it is part of the pronunciation (like English, finger --- where the g starts another syllable). When you're adding a S, it should have the [z] sound ... but again, no G.

      So just to double check we do not pronounce the "G" sounds in any words that have an "ing" unless the "g" is part of the word.
      For example
      thinking
      looking
      The reason I ask is that your comment is from a time when CZcams did not link the comments to the original post so I have no idea who you are addressing in this post.
      Also one additional thing in words like "took", "look" do we release the "k" sound

    Hi, Rachel, I'm not pronouncing the last g sound from ing form like a doin, seein is that ok or not. I was just checking your CZcams videos suddenly popped up your video learn English with tv-series with Ethan him, and them a reduction that is an awesome video probably I would've subscribed because I've seen 15 or 20 videos learn English with tv series in that time I was watching your videos but that time I was not able to watch your videos cuz I had just started learning English when I saw your videos I got to realize every people can speak English learning grammar, phrasal verb, vocabulary, but pronunciation is important to the English language especially American English and linking reduction hence, I like your every videos thanks.

    I'm a professional sound recordist and one thing that drives me crazy is when people pronounce ING words with a hard G at the end. Singing becomes singingk. Learning becomes learningk and so forth. Typically heard among millenials. Anyone else hearing this new pattern?? I wear headphones and record people every day. I can't stand it!

    • @locke6854
      @locke6854 Před 6 lety +4

      This is why I looked up "NG" pronunciation! I grew up with not pronouncing the hard G and I noticed a trend with millennials and modern media/voice over stressing the G. I also grew up with the silent "T" in "often" and have said it "offen" my whole life, but now a whole new generation pronounces a hard T.

    • @scottb423
      @scottb423 Před 6 lety +5

    • @ajs41
      @ajs41 Před 5 lety +1

      Where I live in England the correct pronunciation of "ing" words is to pronounce the "g", but you certainly don't add a "k" sound as well.

    Pronouncing a "g" at the end of "ing" words is correct in many versions of English such as British English, but it isn't correct to also add a "k" sound. But many people seem to think also adding a "k" sound is right.

    I'm so happy to see the comments on 'ing' being pronounced with a hard 'g' at the end. I've noticed the same lately and thought I was losing my mind! It was really noticeable when I started watching a program on HGTV called Home Town. I love the show, but the host Erin often pronounces the 'g' at the end of 'ing'...then I started to hear it in my day to day life. It sounds like their nasal passages are stuffed up. BTW, I think it's only pronounced when it's the last word in the sentence.
    WHAT on earth is happenin-gah!?! LOL!
    Can anyone answer WHERE this came from. It has to be rooted in somethin-gah.

    • @ajs41
      @ajs41 Před 4 lety

      In central England, in the Birmingham area where I live, we pronounce the g in ing words. Stratford-on-Avon is only about 20 miles away from Birmingham so Shakespeare himself probably pronounced the g sound as well.

    is it proununced as:hop(separate syllabe) and ing(separate).
    i mean is there extra (p)sound that should be combine with (ing)sound.
    sleeping,dancingetc
    extra p sound or not,extra c sound or not.

      No, it doesn't. ing is pronouced like iŋ, and in like iN (with N), not ŋ sound. If you are a portuguese speaker, ing seems pretty much the ein!? (hein!?) that we speak.

    • @renatocarvalho6367
      @renatocarvalho6367 Před 7 lety

      Hey Cynthia, actually you pronounce the G sound, but it's kinda hard to notice. It's a sound made through the throat. You don't need to release air while performing it. It's hard to explain.. actually I'm doing an exchange program here in Toronto right now, and I'm starting to understand it better. One thing that you can do to hear what I'm saying is to put the speed of the video in 0.5 ( in 1:55 ).

      GreenGrayRain Actually, in ING words, the vowel is officially the IH as in SIT vowel, but I find it's a little tighter than that and actually sounds more like the EE as in SHE vowel. These videos might help: czcams.com/video/iqW6NZmRzYI/video.html

      @cityhunterfan Před 8 lety

      +Z Ben - "wait'n, sit'n, and get'n" are more a southern and/or lazy slang (if the speech is slower), but... those words and their pronunciation are also overridden by the speed with which a person is talking. The faster we speak in English, the less formed are our words.

    Damn!! I don´t get it.. lol
    Is there any trick to say these words: SING, THING, RING.... I mean, when you say "sing", for example, you teach it as "siŋ"(with no G sound), but for me, it really sounds like there is a little "g" there (in the end), like in "FINGER". I fell the same thing with the word "song" (IPA= soŋ) too. However, in words like "studying", I can clearly hear it as "studiŋ" (no "g").
    Oh, and btw, how do we say "ng" in plural? SINGS, THINGS.. we say it with no "G" too??
    Thx ;)
