    5:27 Hi you said ( but i can't ) i think the letter T in the word ( but ) flap T because the next letter ( i ) vowel. or can i do both flap T and glottal T? Thank you.

    • @GOALSEnglish
      @GOALSEnglish  4 роки тому +1

      You wouldn't do a glottal t. You can do either a stop t if you don't link, or a flap t if you link.

      Haha, that's funny I never thought about that. It's just another filler word we can use the same as OK.

    thanks a lot but i have a question is it necessary to lift up the tongue
    most teachers say that you lift your tongue but a little say you don't have to you can simply just stop the air with your throat and it sounds the same as if with the tongue so is it wrong like that or what?

    • @GOALSEnglish
      @GOALSEnglish  3 роки тому +1

      As long as it is understandable, whatever is easier works! I can make "cat" sound exactly the same either way, but someone else may find it easier one way over the other.

    What about the t in want , is it silent?

    • @GOALSEnglish
      @GOALSEnglish  3 роки тому +1

      Great question! Silent isn't quite the right to explain it because the stop t is there. It's a very small difference in sound, for example between "won" (short o sound, n) and "want" (short o sound, n, stop t).
      I have a video for the word "don't" on my instagram that may help:

    @noanonimato142 2 роки тому

    I have a question teacher, I noticed that when it comes to linking for example: (that + you, it comes, not + for, get + you) the t isn't made with the tongue tip touching the roof of the mouth but it looks like it's more made with the part of the tongue that's further back and the tongue tip remaining down, to summarize, with the glottis in the throat, is that right?

    • @GOALSEnglish
      @GOALSEnglish  2 роки тому +1

      That can be the case, yes! The longer I teach the more I learn that sounds aren’t always made the same way, things change a lot based on what comes next or what is easiest for each individual.

    What's the difference between glottal T and Stop T? Don't you close your vocal cords when making both sounds?

    • @GOALSEnglish
      @GOALSEnglish  3 роки тому

      The stop t, you are stopping the sound with your tongue. The glottal stop is in the throat. I go into this in more detail here if you want to know more:

    Is the Stop T the same as the Dropped T?

    • @GOALSEnglish
      @GOALSEnglish  8 місяців тому

      Not quite! If you think of the word "bat" which has a stop t, there is still something happening with the tongue going up and stopping the "a" sound, even if you don't fully pronounce the "t".
      If you completely "dropped" the t then the "a" sound could continue, with the tongue down and the word would just sound like "baah" like a sheep. ;)

      Yes! When we say "meant" or "mint" we generally don't have that puff of air coming out like with a hard "t" sound.
