About this episode
Not all languages make the same distinction between W and V that English does. For this reason, the W and V sounds made by English speakers may no be clearly heard by non-native English speakers.
If this difficulty concerns yourself, consider this minimal pair exercise, and see an immense change in your spoken English muscle memory!
Follow along with these minimal pairs:
West v Vest | Went v Vent | While v Vile | Worst v Versed
