The Difference Between "Bear" and "Bird" - A Lesson with Erik | #114
About this episode
Some sounds exist in English but don't exist in your native language. If you don't recognize these sounds, you may not even hear them when pronounced, and may replace them with ones more familiar to you.
Today, I gave my Spanish speaking nephew a lesson about English vowel sounds. We broke down a few key differences between the movements of our languages, and came to a clear understanding of two words which Erik finds particularly difficult.
Listen in, follow along, and teach your own muscles the difference between the words "Bear" and "Bird"!
