What a lovely video! Let alone superb and to the point content. I am happy to become your new subscriber. Pul-leez, keep it up. (-: And thank you, Josh!
Thank you for the lesson! With "blue" I slip a ee sound after the bl cluster so it comes out as "blee-ue", it turns the oo in blue into a "you" sound for some reason.
Hi! In the song You're All I Need by the band Mötley Crüe, the contraction doesn't really mean 'you were', rather than 'you are", considering the context, especially what is said in the immediately following sentences? Thank you in advance.
Hi, in clusters such as these: stopped by, helped me, robbed me, etc. Do native speakers glottalize the bilabial consonants before the "ed", thus dropping the "ed" entirely, and then linking right to the following bilabial consonant, or do they actually pronounce the "ed", but just very subtly? What happens when the following sound is a vowel, as in: looked even more, gaped at him, etc. Can the consonants be glottalized too? Last but not least, is it common to glottalize a consonant before an "h", as in: "but her", so in other words, when not wanting to pronounce it as "butter" :) Thank you very much for these videos!
Wow,You are the only one who appears on UA-cam who talks about consonants clusters in American English.
Thank you Josh for your course don't tired ! Because i like it do much.
Hi, teacher. I have a question, which version do you use that you mentioned on the video when you pronounce the consonant cluster?
Great lesson! But wow the noise on the background really stands out!
Noise? Let me see
I wouldn't say it's that bad, but I see what you mean. Trying to work out some kinks with the new mic

Great!
Something I needed since a long time. Will there be another part of this?
I don't plan on it. But if I get enough questions about specific clusters and whatnot, I'll eventually make a supplementary video answering those

Focus on the transition from the L to the U and make sure you don't let the EE form

You and were are never contracted because then we wouldn't know if it's past or present.

It's easier to explain in video, so I answered this for you toward the beginning of this live stream: ua-cam.com/video/zlRYwkTEIK0/v-deo.html
