I am also an accent reduction teacher and must say that this is the most fabulous exercise ever. I LOVE it. What a valuable lesson for your students. They are all adorable and what a journey around the world. We all want to be better communicators!! Love it all.
Good practice professor Rachel. I have the chance in pronouncing each word and adjusting the pitch, stress and unstress words,rhytmn and linking words. Thanks a lot.
I'm Ukrainian and I like your channel so much,I live in Canada 2 years but I have a big problem with listening 🎧,how long should I have lessons with you ? Because I dont understand Canadians often 😢
I'm starting a channel using video games to help people practice English, and I'm learning a lot from your excellent videos. Great job and thank you!!!
My journey with English has been a fascinating one, filled with both admiration and disillusionment. As a child, growing up in an era before the internet took over, our understanding of the world, especially the US, was largely shaped by Hollywood movies and news media. The glamour and power projected by American entertainment sparked a deep fascination within me, leading me to diligently study American English pronunciation, hoping to one day be a part of that world. However, as I entered adulthood and the internet revolutionized access to information, my perspective on America drastically changed. I witnessed firsthand the country's hypocrisy, its penchant for waging wars, manipulating global affairs, and prioritizing self-interest above all else. The blatant disregard for international cooperation, the reckless printing of money at the expense of other nations, and the blatant exploitation of resources left me feeling disillusioned. While I still value English as a vital tool for communication and understanding, my admiration for Western culture has waned significantly. I now see it as a facade, a carefully crafted image that masks a deeply flawed reality.
I am new here and attracted by Rachel’s channels. But there are so many videos and shorts. I found the earliest one was from 15years ago. So I wonder how can I follow up systematically and where should I start with?
Oof, as a German I find the american accent so much harder to pronounce than a British accent. In American English everything almost every word in a sentence merges together while in British English it only happens with certain words. British English kinda feels a lot more structured and defined to me and thus easier to pronounce.
Hi! The first symbol represents the EH as in "bed", which is a sound we use in English. It will feel more open than the "closed e", which is used in many other languages (and often sounds closer to EY to American ears). This [e] symbol is sometimes (non-specifically) used to represent EH, but technically that symbol represents the more closed sound that we don't use in American English.
Hello, you are a very elegant teacher. I am a beginner in the English language and I want to... Please advise me on how to gradually start learning the language. Therefore, do you have a special application for all the lessons that you provide?
"Whom" is gradually disappearing from English conversational use. However, technically, it is used when a person is receiving the action of a verb. Merriam-Webster has a more detailed grammar explanation here: www.merriam-webster.com/grammar/who-vs-whom-grammar-usage
I have the slight impression that you want someone to speak perfect English, since in the US more than a thousand types of English are spoken, Chinese English, French English, Slovak English, Haitian, Argentine, Mexican, German, etc, etc, etc. , and all of them talking as they please.
I wouldn't say perfect since there's no such thing as perfection, but of course she has a reference: the standard American English, and any pronunciation that deviates from that reference must be pointed out as a pronunciation mistake, after all that's exactly what we're all here for, right?! Plus, let's not forget that her channel is all about teaching the American pronunciation, so... C'mon. Hahaha
Hello Rachel teacher thanks a lot for useful lesson. I've heard this construction more than once Hurry up! We're going to be late. I heard it in cartoon video from Obituary and the clip was called Violence.
Not sure why I thought of this, but I think I have an example of one of the most American accents EVERRRR.► Dream Wife - Sports! ua-cam.com/video/aWZFtIcMPS8/v-deo.html Not sure, but I think the main vocals are by the lead singer of the band, Rakel Mjöll. She's originally from Iceland, but I think she spent most of her childhood and teens in southern California. Sounds so Valley Girl, no? ('scuse the bit of profanity. You know how these young 'uns sometimes are.)
Hello Mam, I Visited your UA-cam channel and noticed it ranks lower than others. SEO seems to be lacking, though your content is fantastic. Wondering why your videos aren't attracting more views? One key factor is insufficient SEO (your videos' SEO score is 5/100%, that's why your video is not reaching out to the people and you do not have many subscribers, views, likes, watch time, and comments. I also noticed that your video thumbnail was good. If you'd like, I can assist you with improving it. I think your UA-cam channel will make your dream come true. I am waiting for your response.
Thanks very much my best teacher i was waiting for your upcoming video since i watched your last video❤❤❤❤Kindly tell me can i teach CELTA in the united states in language and private schools as a non native English language teacher and if i have an IELTS certificate and graduation degree as well.
This can be a more polite version of "son of a bitch". This can be a friendly greeting, or it can be used to express disappointment or surprise at someone. www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/son%20of%20a%20gun
I was born and raised in Vermont, USA. I use the 'oh' sound in 'sorry'. According to Merriam Webster, it's the second most popular of correct pronunciations. The word 'sorry' features the Rhotic W. The establishment doesn't teach about the Rhotic W, so I made my own video about it. You could also call it a 'W-colored R'. It's the phoneme we use when we seek to make the R vowel function as a consonant. We actually incorporate the 'er' sound into the W. People from languages that always use the 'trilled R / d/ flap t' may not have any experience producing the Rhotic W and instead produce the standard W. ua-cam.com/video/t-iRxpYX1E0/v-deo.htmlsi=zNzOGSflbXNbMAXT

Rachel, can you explain the difference between ɛ and e in IPA? I always thought they were the same.

What will we study in your course? Please
And I wanna ask you another question which is do you have online from start to advance?
How about "monitoring" and "soldering" ?
British accent gives me no trouble, but the way Americans pronounce these 2 words is very bizzare.
Learning the differences between British and American English can be challenging sometimes, for sure!
All Brazilians pronounce apple as Epple , I try to let people know that E isn't the sound but they say it is American lol

What happened to the traditional Rachel's English video introduction? 😢
I know, we don't do that anymore. I miss it too! :)
I was born and raised in Vermont, USA. I use the 'oh' sound in 'sorry'. According to Merriam Webster, it's the second most popular of correct pronunciations. The word 'sorry' features the Rhotic W.
