Absolutely great! Even with just a camera, your fire is there and the students catch on; that's what I call teaching! Helped the proper precision of the glottal stop versus similar sounds that I had confused.
What a lesson! Perfect. I do like the glotal stop sound. Frank Sinatra pronounces the "ing" sound this way. In the song " Old man river" he says somet", noth" and it's just perfect.
Thanks so much, I was having a lot of trouble with glottal stops in foreign languages, but explaining how they're used in English made it exponentially clearer!
I am a chilean boy getting grazy with linguistic at university..a Chilean teacher teaching linguistic is almost imposible he speaks so fast and u do it very slowly to make us understand u! this is awesome Love u!
It is quite difficult for us, Brazilians, to produce this sound because I don´t think in our language we have it. Just telling us to "close" the glottis in not enough, because we have no idea of how to do this. However, when you presented the drawing on the board and explained calling attention to the tongue position you simply clarified everything to me. That was a genious approach to glottal-stop-sound teaching. Congrats and thanks a bunch! :)
Loved this! The glottal stop, in use, was not foreign to me, but it having a name was a 🤯 moment! I love language & learning where words come from..their origin! So, I had always thought of it as a silent "k". Like.. oak..? Though that might help somebody, u know, in addition to everything else. Its how I made sense of it. Think of the way you close your throat when making the "k" sound! Great video, btw!! Def recommend it!!!
I loved this video. You made it so easy to understand the concept the pronounce the words with glottal stop. Could you please do the video on the pronunciation of of here vs hear?
could u make a video on whether we could always drop the following stop consonants p, b, t, d, k, g occuring at the end of a word in a speech when there is no linking to the next word which begins with a vowel. hopefully u could also make more videos on glottal stop or non-glottal stop, thanks..
thank you so much! this is an eye opener to me. I think we dont have this Glottal stop sounds in our language, and im from Philippines :) Usually we tend to pronounce button as "bo-ton" not "but' n" lol
coach Shane really you made me laugh a lot especially in this video but I could get the glottal stop sound thank you our great teacher but you very funny man😘😘
From Theodore Dalrymple's book, "Life at the Bottom": "Mrs. Thatcher, of lowly origin, taught herself to speak like a grandee; Mr. Blair, nearer to the grandee class by birth, now toys (not altogether convincingly) with the glottal stop and other vocal mannerisms of the lower classes,"
I hear a lot of younger people and people in the Capital District of New York not using the glottal stop but ending their words with 'an' instead. Moun - an for mountain.
I think this video was the first time I have ever seen someone who teaches glorify the glottal stop for uses that were not intended by the spelling of the word. Prior to watching this I always heard others refer to the use of the glottal stop as a sign that the speaker was uneducated. Or maybe I just was too influenced by "My Fair Lady" in my formative years. 🤷♂
Not exactly. There is glottal t in british english, and it's quite common, not inky in cockney accent. I just keep wondering, what for? It requires much more effort.
I have a question. Is the t sound sometimes dropped at the end of words. Like for example in the sentence 'what was that.' I sometimes hear native speakers drop the t sound and just say "wu was that." Without the t.To me it sounds more smoother than when you say it with a t. Do you know if this is correct?
Would you please do a video about p and b, I tried a lot to practice these two sounds but no benefit and also the short e and i like big and beg, also hut and hot
It helps so much youre the best teacher I've ever seen.I've a question for u teacher.All I did was to say , All I did was say Which one is correct in AmE and where sentence structre come from? much appreciated
MrLast14 Thank you!! I would guess that "All I did was say" is probably more common in the US!! The expression is very casual, and in "casual English" we like to skip some of the proper structure!!
when u pronounce the n in "sump'n", why is the mouth closed? i also noticed towards the end of the video, u pronunced n in "nut'n" with your mouth closed..wouldnt that change it to an "m" sound?
is a t at the end of a word usually dropped? e.g when you say "what kind of ...", can we drop the t before kind? whenever there is linking to the next word, does the t-gottal stop sound disappear? e.g want a toy becomes wana toy and e.g what do you want to do becomes whaddaya wannna do
"Most languages have glottal stop", but some (mine, for instance) haven't it, so your lesson was highly appreciated. Thanks.
It´s s magnificient explanation. Thank you.
after watching your tutorial this pronunciation becomes more natural for me. thanks a lot.
You nailed it bruh, the best pronunciation vídeo ever glottal T, STRAIGHT UP TO THE POINT
The example my high school choir director always use to give us is the British way of saying water bottle: wa'er bo'el.
Absolutely great! Even with just a camera, your fire is there and the students catch on; that's what I call teaching! Helped the proper precision of the glottal stop versus similar sounds that I had confused.
Everon Thank you very much!
+coachshanesesl What states/regions/areas of USA the glottal stop is most used?
I'm a speech pathology student struggling with this sound when transcribing in IPA, so thanks for this! :-)
You have a TOUGH job!! Best wishes^^

What a lesson! Perfect. I do like the glotal stop sound. Frank Sinatra pronounces the "ing" sound this way. In the song " Old man river" he says somet", noth" and it's just perfect.
Wonderful! The best pronunciation video i have watched! I enjoyed this immensely and it is clearly explained.
Well elaborated
The word "mountain" is commonly pronounced with a glottal stop in the western U.S., to give another common example.
The best explanation ever .Thank you so much.
Thank you so much i always thought that the word "something" sometimes is pronounces differently but you made it clear for me

Thanks so much, I was having a lot of trouble with glottal stops in foreign languages, but explaining how they're used in English made it exponentially clearer!

Great tips and explanations, Shane! Fun to watch too.
Sure, this is adorable and elegant
Thank you for uploading! I really understand what the glottal stop is.
Didn't know Dr. Tobias Funke had expanded his horizons yet again. Seriously, this is awesome. Thanks.
Today last year I could not figure out how to pronounce the glotal sounds but now it's ingrained in me clear crystal

Thank you for the very practical lesson! Can "Washington" be a glottal stop like Washin'n?
love u so much. u've given me a lot of really great tips. thanks shane
Great love it! learned a lot from this thank you
"Nice to meet you" is sometimes pronounced with the glottal stop.
Yep. Meet/ ya AND Meechya are both very common.
LOVE this, however ... the glottal stop in Hawai'i on your board is in the wrong spot. It is between two vowels.
excellent explanation.
now I understand, thanks.
I think this video was the first time I have ever seen someone who teaches glorify the glottal stop for uses that were not intended by the spelling of the word. Prior to watching this I always heard others refer to the use of the glottal stop as a sign that the speaker was uneducated.
Or maybe I just was too influenced by "My Fair Lady" in my formative years. 🤷♂
That was so beneficial to me ... Thanks alot !
other glottal stop sounds that i've ever heard written ,bitten ,forgotten..
best glottal stop video in the web!
Thnx. For teaching me this

So many thanks Shane!
Awesome Lesson
Thanks! Undoubtedly, it will help me with my BA paper concerning various /t/ realizations :)
Something seems more like "sump'm" with an "m" to me. Cool vid
Perfect explanaition!!
thanks!
Thank you so much Shane
connect online same like talk with a friendship
WOW you will never die duddddeee
Not exactly. There is glottal t in british english, and it's quite common, not inky in cockney accent. I just keep wondering, what for? It requires much more effort.
Example of glottal stop
would you tell the difference between glottal stop and just stop？
getting, hitting....I thought t is in these words a flap t, because between two vowels.
Hi Shane, is there a difference between the pronounciation of eaten and Eden?
as a bit of a cockney I would use a glottal stop if i said "outta" and "butter" but a american would say it abit like budder? is that a flap t?
I live in a city called Renton, but a lot of people here say “ Ren-Nn”. Including me.
I have a question. Is the t sound sometimes dropped at the end of words. Like for example in the sentence 'what was that.' I sometimes hear native speakers drop the t sound and just say "wu was that." Without the t.To me it sounds more smoother than when you say it with a t. Do you know if this is correct?
Short answer: Yes! I'll make a video in the future for you!
Okay thanks coach Shane.
Jose, correct! Even more, they would drop the T in "tha(t)" as well
Good job👥
B
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@coachshanesesl
can you Americans pronounce the word Washington with glottal stop? or is it unusual? if so, why?
WTF, why does it have only ~73k views?
Dear Coach! Could you explain what is Stop T??? What is difference???
Would you please do a video about p and b, I tried a lot to practice these two sounds but no benefit and also the short e and i like big and beg, also hut and hot
It helps so much youre the best teacher I've ever seen.I've a question for u teacher.All I did was to say , All I did was say Which one is correct in AmE and where sentence structre come from? much appreciated
MrLast14 Thank you!! I would guess that "All I did was say" is probably more common in the US!! The expression is very casual, and in "casual English" we like to skip some of the proper structure!!
Can't stop laughing at the end LOL That's why British sound like drunk =))
by the way when you said beautiful you sounded just like My Glaswegian uncles/cousins.
Thank you ❤
Just be careful that when you exaggerate the sound you don't end up with an epiglottal stop instead.
when u pronounce the n in "sump'n", why is the mouth closed? i also noticed towards the end of the video, u pronunced n in "nut'n" with your mouth closed..wouldnt that change it to an "m" sound?
but why didn't you link 'get' with 'outta' so it would be D 'ged _ouda'?
i just wanted to know do you have any website sir
is a t at the end of a word usually dropped? e.g when you say "what kind of ...", can we drop the t before kind?
whenever there is linking to the next word, does the t-gottal stop sound disappear? e.g want a toy becomes wana toy and e.g what do you want to do becomes whaddaya wannna do
excellent explanation.
but I understand it's not so easy to learn.
Wow. Interesting.
