I love the way you explain everything so transparently! It’s easy now for me. Thank You for opening this channel and help us learning more about english.
Hi, I really love the way you explain: calm, slow but not too slow and to the point. I would really apprecite it if there were more videos demonstrating how to pronuance certain words such as spoon, words with flap t and more videos with the connected speach. These what you have so far are excellent and are sooo helpful. Thanks a lot.
Hi Anna! Thanks for your comment and the suggestions. I will consider these for future videos. have you watched my video on the flap T and features of connected speech (there are several ones and you can find them all in my playlist Pronunciation topics)? You might find them helpful too. Please subscribe & keep watching! 😊
Dear teacher - how can I express my gratitude to you for your beautiful presentation! I am really indebted . Have a good time for your effort n contribution. Yhanks
Olá amei seu vídeo, tenho uma sugestão poderia marcar qual a letra vc está pronunciando , porque fico perdida eu assisto o vídeo com legenda … obrigada pelo conteúdo riquíssimo.
Hello Naga, thank you for your comment! I will consider this for future videos :-) But until then, here is a little explanation to help you: - nominal groups (in functional grammar): think of it as the noun of a clause, only that instead of it just being one word (e.g. day) it is a group of words, all acting together as a noun (e.g. the beautiful sunny autumn day) or even longer than that (e.g. the beautiful sunny autumn day that started off the month of November, ....). All of the 12 words in the last example function together as a noun of a clause = a nominal group. - verbal groups: again, instead of just one word (e.g. a verb such as 'walk') this refers to a group of words all acting together as a verb (e.g. will come OR can see OR has done OR has been doing OR is running etc.) You can see the other words in a verb group apart from the main verb are usually auxiliary verbs or modal verbs. - participial: here it depends a little what exactly you mean. For example, there are 2 participle forms. 1. present participle: walking - we add -ing to the verb AND 2. past participle: we add -ed OR use an irregular form, e.g. walked, eaten, bought etc.. I think you might be talking about participial phrases though, so: this is a group of words all acting like an adjective to describe a noun. For example, 'hearing the door bell, Tilly jumped up to see who was there.' - here, 'hearing the door bell' is a participle phrase. Another example, 'Tired of all the arguments, Bob decided to leave his girlfriend'. Here 'tired of all the arguments' is the participle describing Bob. I hope this helps!
What about aspirated voiceless stops (as in "pill," "tar" and "car") vs. unaspirated voiceless stops (as in "spill," "star" and "scar")? (There are those who say that the latter are really "b," "d" and "g" in disguise, but they remain unvoiced. To complicate things further, the "voiced" stops also tend to be voiceless initially (as in "bill," "dip" and "guard") or when preceded by a voiceless sound (as in "top dog"). They are only voiced when preceded by a vowel (as in "a bill," etc.) or another voiced sound ("a big bird," "abominable"). Perhaps local accents affect this. Also, there is the glottal stop, though this is not phonemic.
I have two separate videos on the sound /l/: Light & Dark l ua-cam.com/video/rL49Q6wYMSI/v-deo.html And this one on approximants ua-cam.com/video/b7eJdwWyg0E/v-deo.html
The spelling is a bit deceiving here. Although it is just one letter (= 'x'), in reality it is 2 sounds. It could be /ks/ as in 'box' or /gz/ as in 'exam' - all 4 sounds (= /g/, /k/, /s/ & /z/) are mentioned in the video.
Hello ! thanks for your explanation.Actually I found in some references that the sound "L" is lateral and you said that it is approximant.Can you please explain for me why this difference ?
The unvoiced sounds are much quieter (it's as if you whisper something which is basically speaking without using your vocal chords). The voiced sounds are really loud, just like when you are humming a song with your lips closed. Try out both, the difference is really obvious then. I hope this helps!

Could you make a video on nominal groups, verbal groups, participial, grammar in linguistics please? I find it very difficult to understand!:(
Hello Naga, thank you for your comment! I will consider this for future videos :-)
But until then, here is a little explanation to help you:
- nominal groups (in functional grammar): think of it as the noun of a clause, only that instead of it just being one word (e.g. day) it is a group of words, all acting together as a noun (e.g. the beautiful sunny autumn day) or even longer than that (e.g. the beautiful sunny autumn day that started off the month of November, ....). All of the 12 words in the last example function together as a noun of a clause = a nominal group.
- verbal groups: again, instead of just one word (e.g. a verb such as 'walk') this refers to a group of words all acting together as a verb (e.g. will come OR can see OR has done OR has been doing OR is running etc.) You can see the other words in a verb group apart from the main verb are usually auxiliary verbs or modal verbs.
- participial: here it depends a little what exactly you mean. For example, there are 2 participle forms. 1. present participle: walking - we add -ing to the verb AND 2. past participle: we add -ed OR use an irregular form, e.g. walked, eaten, bought etc.. I think you might be talking about participial phrases though, so: this is a group of words all acting like an adjective to describe a noun. For example, 'hearing the door bell, Tilly jumped up to see who was there.' - here, 'hearing the door bell' is a participle phrase. Another example, 'Tired of all the arguments, Bob decided to leave his girlfriend'. Here 'tired of all the arguments' is the participle describing Bob.
I hope this helps!

What are rolling sounds? Also what are tap sounds? My textbook mentions them
What about "Lateral manner of articulation"?
I have two separate videos on the sound /l/:
Light & Dark l
ua-cam.com/video/rL49Q6wYMSI/v-deo.html
And this one on approximants
ua-cam.com/video/b7eJdwWyg0E/v-deo.html
❤Thank u so much maam❤❤❤
Upload a video on british phonemes pronunciation
What about the letter X. In words like BOX, SOX, etc the letter X makes two distinct sounds KS /boks/ /soks/ Any thoughts about this?
The spelling is a bit deceiving here. Although it is just one letter (= 'x'), in reality it is 2 sounds. It could be /ks/ as in 'box' or /gz/ as in 'exam' - all 4 sounds (= /g/, /k/, /s/ & /z/) are mentioned in the video.
Hii. ... 😊 this isAmazing explanation
Mam please write also a phonetical transcription
Thank you so much ma'am
Thanks Ma'am 🥰
saya study dgn awek saya...Thanks KAK BILLIE ENGLISH btw saya budak UPTM SEM 2
Very helpful😘😘😘😘😘👍👍👍
Thanks a lot 😊
Hello ! thanks for your explanation.Actually I found in some references that the sound "L" is lateral and you said that it is approximant.Can you please explain for me why this difference ?
/l/ is a lateral approximate so it is both.
Please explain why are africates named so?
Thanks a lot Mam
Thank you
Eventhough I put my hand on my throat I cannot distinguish between the voiced and voiceless sounds.
The unvoiced sounds are much quieter (it's as if you whisper something which is basically speaking without using your vocal chords). The voiced sounds are really loud, just like when you are humming a song with your lips closed. Try out both, the difference is really obvious then. I hope this helps!
@@BillieEnglish Oh thank you❤️. It worked😲🤩.
Mam; plosive and stops are same?
Yes, they are the same!
Thanks from Pakistan 🇵🇰
For me, the consonant sound of x is the "affricate".
It's two sounds /k/ + /s/
사랑해요, 친구!
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
Con you tell me the shape of lips for all?
she worked on sentence stress, and gave more examples : bough,yet,so,because...,please!!!
Hello! I have a video on sentence stress if you are looking for one. Just have a look on my main channel page 😊 The video title is 'Sentence Stress'.
@@BillieEnglish I've seen it, I need more example:bough,before,after,because,etc...
Why are the consonant sounds written first as P not K
Yout mother tongue english or spanish or are you native english speaker. Are you spanish or english
Hello
That's good
q, x and y left the room crying...
Where are you from madam?
