    I'm German and we never really use the v sound as English poeple do. If we say v, it always sounds like w. 😅

      It's the opposite, actually... At least if you're not speaking heavy dialect. Try saying "Wasser". In High German, it is spoken with [v] like in the english word "valley". You don't say "Uwasser", do you? Because that's the sound that [w] makes.
      Btw, I am a native German who's studying English at university

      @@timb.3171 Das stimmt, aber irgendwie ist das v bei _Wasser_ trotzdem anders als das v in der englischen Sprachen 🤔. Im Englischen ist es mehr betont... 😆.

    Hi, I'm struggling with the R and W sounds. Sometimes, when I'm talking, when I'm saying "Look at the right side", people are understanding "Look and the white side"

      That's a common problem! I have a video and lots of practice material on R vs W in my online course (search the Index for R vs W): improveyouraccent.co.uk/course/

      Same in Turkish, I can hear a very little difference but those both would sound as some variation of V in our languages among many other similar possible miniscule variations. I think English differentiates these minor sounds so they look vastly different.

      @@case6339 We are Eastern Europians, hungarians have slav DNA even if they like it or not and we have a big great Turkish heritage especially In Budapest like spas, buildings, words etc..A lot of Hungarians also have a little western asian DNA ( I have as well check my videos on YT) so maybe it can be a reason why we are not so good at pronuancing V and W LoL

    With the word “womb” I guess one has to pronounce /w/ with even closer lips or it will sound /u:m/
