Complete Vowel Sounds with Y Glides (Part 2) | #083
About this episode
Glides are used all over spoken English, and getting used to them will help you take more control over your speech when it comes to learning an American Accent. Here we discuss 2 more Y glides, and consider how they can improve your vowel pronunciation, and enhance your American pronunciation!
Read these phrases along with me and shadow my pronunciation and stress:
I don't feel like it | Between us | Don't annoy me | Employment rates
- Be polite and clean your space.
- Enjoy some red wine with your steak.
- I don't feel good after eating cake all day.
- Don't boil the buoyant eggs, they've spoiled.
- This drive may take a while, feel free to sleep.
Train your American accent, and repeat these common American idiomatic expressions:
- Down the toilet Something was wasted or failed
His cash went down the toilet with the market crash. - Any minute now Sometime very soon
Get your things together, we'll leave any minute now. - Do you feel me? Do you understand me? (informal)
I need to rest before we head out, do you feel me?
