You have the most pleasant personality and voice, it makes all the difference! I'm not even really learning English, but find listening to you fun and relaxing. 🌟
Βeing a teacher myself,I find your methods really helpful!For us in the Mediterranean countries, good pronunciation is quite a hard task!The thing is, we 've got clearer syllabus, vowels and consonants,one after another -and that's a different story😅...-I really enjoy your videos, you are a very sweet young woman ,keep going,you are doing a great job 👍
Katharine, 1. You're totally right when you say that Worcestershire is one of the scariest word 😆 in the English language. 2. Your method of "breaking up" the words in bits and pieces is one of the most useful and helpful methods I have come across since I have been studying English. For instance the trick you have used to explain the pronunciation of the word "queue" is simply brilliant. Where have you been all my life? 3. Oh well, you seem to have forgotten a word as scary as Worcestershire: "colonel". It'll have to be included in video Part 2, I suppose.
Wuster - Sh I ur , Northampton Sh I ur, Gloster Sh I ur (is how it was drummed into me in elocution lessons) In a place near us as a boy was place marked on the ordinance survey maps and road signs as Irthlingburough but it was called Artleburar and Rothwell simply Ro-'al. But your pronuciation is quite clear but with a is it London area accent? Anyway the Kings English in J.Chaucer's time was east midland. I tried it out with using the local rather strong accent of Kettering and it worked a treat. But then i'm an Octogenarian 😊😊
Hi Katharine, I live in Australia and I am learning an Aussie accent course online. Your voice is so soothing with your beautiful British accent. Most importantly, your teaching techniques are brilliant. I wish I can talk and sound like you.
I've been living in NZ around 5 years, and I discovered your videos around 5 months ago, It been pretty helpfully to me because in NZ people speak pretty much British English. Just one complaint Kath, sometimes is pretty hard to be focus watching your videos, specially see you are blinking your beautiful eyes, despite been in NZ for 5 years, I'm still learning. Thanks for your videos, really good tips and lessons.
For me, from Brazil, of Portuguese language, the most hard word to pronounce is the 1rst one, RURAL. The letter R sound in Brazilian Portuguese it's the same sound of the H letter in the word HOTEL when it's writting in the start of word, from the 2nd silable on it sounds like in English.
Thanks Katherine for this wonderful pronunciation hacks lesson, I love the way you break down the syllabus, it makes me so much easier to pronounce them correctly. Thanks again❤❤❤
You Dutch & British conquered our country & ruled more than 300 years, but still our people are not able to pronounce English properly & the Dutch language is vanished completely here. Anyway there is a Dutch fortress still existing majestically in Galle, Sri Lanka.
The word choir is funny, Long time, I couldn't understand, why I couldn't see letters that make sense. But you are right, I don't have to look at the spelling. The queue was known to me for the billiard sports. But is also a snake in front of a store(in German). You are a good teacher with a wonderful smile.
Choir, Wire, Fire, Hire, Tire, Buyer, Liar, Pyre,... all end in schwa (uh). And the word Choir and Quire have identical pronunciation. In billiards, the name of the long stick used to move the ball is written "cue", but pronounced exactly the same as "queue". In London there is a famous garden called Kew Gardens. "Kew" is pronounced exactly the same as "cue" and "queue". Isn't English a strange language ? 😊
Katherine Your thorough lessons help us to speak english better from day to day. Thank You so much!❤ May I ask You to give a bit more samples in the future for the meaning of actual words?
Hello Katharine. I have lived in England for more than 7 years. For me as a Pole , the biggest problem is Th sound 😱✌️🙄 I guess because in my language such a sound does not exist and the word Thorough I can not pronounce well 😱 You are a great teacher and it is nice to listen to you!!! Thank you for the lesson 🤗
Soooooooo talented, happy the way you clear things up. I'm Australian and I love your British accent. You are a great teacher, even a lazy student like me can follow you. Thank you.
I enjoy your videos. Following are most hardest english words to pronounce i have ever found. 1 Puissant 2 Conflagration 3 Angst 4 Avoirdupois 5 Meerschaum 6 Quadrilateral 7 Recherche 8 Squabble 9 Twaddle 10 Squirrel. Have a nice day. May your shadow never grow less.
I have loved the British accent since i was in the first grade, even i never learned English until in my early 70 of age😂, but now when i follow your lovely video I'm fluent. Truth be told those were the most difficult words to pronounce, but for me the words drought, squirrel 🐿️ and scissors ✂️ very easy. Anyway, i will try hard to take the test.

Some bizarre words in english aren't english words at all. Queue is one such word which is a french word and is pronounced 'keuh', and queue in french simply means a tail.
Rural feels like I'm pronouncing three Rs in a row. Replacing the middle one with a schwa makes it much easier! This video is your first I've watched. (I hope that makes sense.) You may have already had this word in another video, but: Twelfths. The spelling is easy, even with each sound, but when I try to pronounce it all together, it seems the word gods forgot it would need to be pronounced. Your method is the easiest I've seen, though I've watched lots of other channels about pronouncing English!
Oh my you are brilliant and when you were saying RURAL I always have a problem on saying this word now everything is clear thanks a lot❤ Katharine sis❤❤
Dear ma'am, It's with a heart ♥ full of appreciation & gratitude that I would like to have conversation with you. The video gives easy tips about pronunciations .The words you have chosen seem to be quite easy to pronounce but in fact, they are quite difficult to pronounce. Especially for non- native speakers. Your accent is natural & pleasant as well. Fluency doesn't mean our pronunciations are impeccable; it just means clarity of speech at ease,. I supposed . That's exactly what you have emphasized on. With best wishes. Vishwas India
Hi Katherine. I love your simple and yet practical explanation of words and pronunciation. You surely do enjoy what you do, and I'm so impressed. Thumbs up..
Hello Professor Katherine Your excellent lessons that may deepen my english language, thank you so much for your help and advice. I really appreciate your job. I wish you peace and happness under the sky of prosperity. Take care and have a good time. Your Student from Algeria.
I wonder what made these words seem difficult! I would have imagined words like ‘genre’; Worcestershire was a good one and some other much more difficult words and pronunciations would have been great. This notwithstanding, you are delightful to watch and it must be a treat being taught by you. Greetings from Malta.
All words containing the voiced or voiceless th sound, and then all those borrowings from French where the stressed syllable starts not with a w, but with a v (which in native English words come either at the end of words or at the beginning of unstressed syllables.) Most foreigners struggle with these.
I enjoy your videos which are fabulous and contribute to improve our knoledge. Following are ten english words hardest to pronounce for me. 1 Puissant 2 Conflagration 3 Angst 4 Avoirdupois 5 Meerschaum 6 Quadrilateral 7 Recherche 8 Squabble 9 Twaddle 10 Squirrel. Have an efficient day. May your shadow never grow less.
Don’t have words to comment but just would like to say it feels that a mum is putting milk on her hand to assure whether it's warm, cold or normal before feeding it to her child. Superb!❤❤❤
This is the most difficult words to speak are pronounced. However, it’s easily to understanding for whole pronounced in the syllables words. I’m trying to keep practising to speak with other words to pronounce and this video with the most difficult words as well. Thank you so very much for your passion. I really appreciate for your helped to the people. Your teaching is so amazing, excellent video and your voice is so sweet. ❤ I can’t wait to watch these video again! Thank you again for this pronunciation lesson. It was lovely to see you. 😊😊😊
Exceptionally useful video! Thank you so much, Katharine🙏. I would like to know your opinion on a habit of mine: when I speak to an Anglo-Saxon, I tend to scrutinise their mouth, tongue, teeth and, as far as possible, throat movements. It's a fixation, which also makes me a bit rude because I don't look my interlocutors in the eye, but I consider pronunciation technique very important and, I believe, by observing their mouth movements while speaking, I could further improve my pronunciation. Long story short to also let you know that I notice, when pronouncing a word where the 'L' has to be pronounced (e.g. 'love'), you usually bring the tip of your tongue to the right side of your mouth (the left one for those following the video), between your teeth. For the record, eh? Btw, some of the terms you analyse in the video are just horrible and difficult to pronounce (= choir), others I took for granted, after your remarks, I realise how little I knew of the English language. Fortunately, your videos help me to at least improve my pronunciation. And of course I have to study, repeat and repeat, also in writing (I follow the study method of the Shenker institute).
I find it difficult to pronounce words such as 1- Comfortable! Instead I say convenient comfortable car 🚘 2- functional i pronounce it as funkational ! 3- convertible and compatible sound the same ! 4- February and April! 5 simple word such as thing! Things ! Sound like sin and sins 6 six and sex! Sound the same for some people! Could you please make a video for these words I would love ❤️ to learn phonetics and British accent from you! Making everything so easy and simple!
@@englishwithkatharine your method of teaching how to pronounce the most difficult words ,together with your cheerful face makes your lesson understandable
Lovely accent you have! I always liked everything British so much and try to improve my spoken British further, so I’m happy to have found the channel. So actually apart from maybe Wocestershire, I didn’t find any of these words very hard to pronounce. Even if I maybe don’t always get it precisely right, I knew how they should sound. In fact, my most hated word to pronounce is actually: PURCHASING!!! I’m working as a buyer and everytime I have to use that word I say it with a German emphasis on the second syllable instead of the first one!! I have to force myself to say „purr-che-sing“ instead of the rather German sounding „per-chaesing“😂😂😂 I pronounced it wrong when talking to a Texan and he didn’t understand at all what I meant. I hate that word 😂
The objective is very funny: mimicking the speaker. Phonetic Symbols are extremely important for learning languages or else it’s gonna sound like pronouncing every words independently. While speaking a language the “ transition “~ flow is very important to sound more like the “Queen”.
Ta, Katharine! I've recently noticed that watching your videos on Fridays is my new habit :) Speaking of "mischievous", in Japan, videos about mischievous behaviour in sushi places have recently gone viral on Twitter😅
My first language is English but the city of Leicester was the hardest for me to pronounce at first. I heard the pronunciation as "Lester" once on the BBC and thought well easy enough. Also, I'm not sure if British ppl know this but words that end in A tend to add an R sound with it. banana is bananar for example... It's very slight but I do hear it. Great Video..Thank you.
Wunderbar Außerordentlich Hervorragend !!! Very attractive and scientific way of teaching English pronunciation. Will be watching all your videos and will be waiting for the new releases. Cordial thanks and Love Katharine
Hi Kat, smashing lesson as always! Please, would you like to carry us into the fantastic world of english slang? I look forward to digging into that topic as I'm sure you use it a lot on a regular basis...kiss from Italy!!! 😍❤🥰
Thank you Katharine for this pronunciation lesson, here are a few more words: archive , lieutenant 😉 Valentine’s Day is around the corner ❤ it would be great if you make us a video about it 😊
"Lieutenant" is a good one: It's actually a French word, used in English but pronounced LEFFtenant in English. - 3 syllables; stress the "ten" and with the "a" as schwa. Leff - - uhnt. 😃
Hi Katharine, BIG thanks. Channel glaldy subscribed. Can you please make a detailed video of the difference in pronunciation of these two words : WORD and WORLD. and how can one master them. Many thanks in advance!
You are a beautiful and gorgeous actress as an English teacher. You are much more beautiful than any other teacher whom I have never seen ever before. Thanks a lot for explaining each and every word so clearly.
I love your videos. I learned in this last 1 week. Thank you anyway for your reference to Italki. I will try this afternoon. Btw, you really like young Hillary Duff here🥰
'rural' is arguably the most difficult one out there of the standards; esp for me who have dispatched my old stammer down the drain - I thought, not really for this one, which I avoid at all costs 😁
Is this pronunciation puzzle issue only with English? Most of the languages of the world, I believe, are pronounced the way it's written. Arabic, Hebrew, Swedish, German, Hindi etc, the languages I know. Please let me know your thoughts and opinions
As far as I am concerned, these words except ‘rural’ and ‘squirrel’ are not really difficult to pronounce. The spellings of the words are just confusing when it comes to pronunciation. The difficult words to pronounce for me include: Marilyn, Maryland, clothes, months, width.
You have the most pleasant personality and voice, it makes all the difference! I'm not even really learning English, but find listening to you fun and relaxing. 🌟
same here !! i wish i had teacher like her during school days or maybe science professor in uni lol

Yes, it's quite tricky. It has 4 syllables and 2 schwas (uh) - say: vuh - - uh - tee; stressing the second syllable. 😄
Ta, Katharine! I've recently noticed that watching your videos on Fridays is my new habit :) Speaking of "mischievous", in Japan, videos about mischievous behaviour in sushi places have recently gone viral on Twitter😅
Wonderful!😊🎉😊
My first language is English but the city of Leicester was the hardest for me to pronounce at first. I heard the pronunciation as "Lester" once on the BBC and thought well easy enough.
Also, I'm not sure if British ppl know this but words that end in A tend to add an R sound with it. banana is bananar for example... It's very slight but I do hear it. Great Video..Thank you.
Depends on the accent 🤗 but yes - Leicester is lester 👏 thanks for your comment 🤗🤗🥰
Good evening beautiful Teacher 😊😊😇.
I love your teaching too much.
Glad to hear that😊😊 thank you so muchhh
Woow❤❤Katherin..good job..Need more videos..❤❤

Horas! Greeting from North Tapanuli. Thank you so much for the lessons.
Very interesting and useful. Those are words I've always pronounced very bad.
Glad it was helpful!😊😊
Wunderbar Außerordentlich
Hervorragend !!!
Very attractive and scientific way of teaching English pronunciation.

Cordial thanks and Love Katharine
Splendid teaching from a ravishing princess. Great work .
Hi Kat, smashing lesson as always! Please, would you like to carry us into the fantastic world of english slang? I look forward to digging into that topic as I'm sure you use it a lot on a regular basis...kiss from Italy!!! 😍❤🥰
Thank you for your suggestion - great ideaaaaa 😊
Thank you Katharine for this pronunciation lesson, here are a few more words: archive , lieutenant 😉
Valentine’s Day is around the corner ❤ it would be great if you make us a video about it 😊
Thank you! 😃 Valentine’s Day video coming today ❤
"Lieutenant" is a good one: It's actually a French word, used in English but pronounced LEFFtenant in English. - 3 syllables; stress the "ten" and with the "a" as schwa. Leff - - uhnt. 😃
I like this format, it helps a lot. Would love to see similar videos come out. Thank you!

You have a sweet way of presenting yourself!
Really useful for me thanx a lot Dear Teacher
🙏🙏🤗
'rural' is arguably the most difficult one out there of the standards; esp for me who have dispatched my old stammer down the drain - I thought, not really for this one, which I avoid at all costs 😁
The word "THE" was the most difficult for me. I always said VE or ZE.
No th sound in my language.
Genau!
Is this pronunciation puzzle issue only with English? Most of the languages of the world, I believe, are pronounced the way it's written. Arabic, Hebrew, Swedish, German, Hindi etc, the languages I know. Please let me know your thoughts and opinions
I think it's also an issue with Danish
As far as I am concerned, these words except ‘rural’ and ‘squirrel’ are not really difficult to pronounce. The spellings of the words are just confusing when it comes to pronunciation. The difficult words to pronounce for me include: Marilyn, Maryland, clothes, months, width.
Being a German I'd like your teaching skills. ❤
🙏🙏🤗🤗
Nice video
Surprisingly the Latin origin words are easier to pronounce like deteriorate or even rural
I love you the way you release the sound
You're really good. I liked your sweet accent. Thanks
Wonderful .
