I am so so happy, because me not being able to say any words right with ‘r’ in it gave me severe social anxiety, so bad that I had to be homeschooled because I couldn’t stand talking to people. I used to dodge words that had an r in it, resulting in me sounding strange and foreign. This helps SO much and I know it’s old but THANK YOU!
You're very much welcome!
Thank you so much both of you
Our pleasure Ayoub!
I love Tom and Rachel's voice! Thanks a lot!
You explained R sound quite well

Hi, this is a striking video I agree with you tom is a really world class pronunciation instructor yesterday I watched your conversation video tom has an incredible accent thanks.
You are very welcome Ghanshyam!
Nice. This will definitely help with words like "horror", "poorer", "smarter", etc. These are especially tricky. Thanks!
Murder and murderer too
Right. Plenty of these tricky words. (caterer?)

Rachelle when I pronounce the letter D where should i place my tongue between the upper jaw and lower jaw or up behind the teeth?
Rare is the most difficult one for me lmfao :((
I have been trying to learn bunch r for 6 month and have seen a lot of video. by watching many video I had learnt r colored vowels sound by following bunch method. I couldnt produce beginning r . I started to use the technique like sir Tom have shown in this video . but I wasnt sure the technique I use is correct way to build up consonant r sound. after watching this I have cofident increased by sir Tom. many many thanks rachel
Glad to hear that and keep up the great practice Jasim!
wow! That's an awesome tip!
Thanks Rachel & Tom! :-)
+Rayhan Mahmud :)
Hi Rachel and Tom! Thank you very much for your job! It is great!! Could you give an example of pronouncing a toung twister like that: Jerry's jelly berries taste really rare. For me, it is difficult to pronunce R sound in position of between twoo vowels. Thank you for your attention
I had Heard theTom's Voice in severas english courses woooow
Ugh! This is so hard!
nice video
Salamat tom... :-)
He is the perfect actor for Caesar
/r/ phoneme is a bit trcky. Thank you both of you for this /r/ speech therapy.
Thank you very much!
I think this tip may be very helpful
+Jonathan D. Yes, it's a great tip!
+Mohammed El-sharkawy Unfortunately I don't have time to establish a group at the moment, but it's a great idea!
Thx 👍
But I have a big problem.
I speak with a lisp of letter r
I can not make it clear. I tried hard to show it but at the beginning of the word it seems like /w/
At the middle and end it disappears like the british r
Thanks
You're welcome!
00:37 this is so true. Relax, relax, relax like you're having a toothache
Hey Rachel can u make a vdo for L sound...
I think it's a great exercise, although I don't know If I'm saing right or not. I repeat after him and record myself and it's sound to me perfect but people say differently. I can't get it on my own, even though I think that I can.
Hi Rachel pls give us all meanin of the bad words that they have even good meanin :) thanks for teaching btw
SO THAT'S WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY R! It was always a bit off but after the exercise, it's a lot better.
Rachel, what's the difference between "r" and dark "l"?
I finally did it right the fckn R sound. Hurt, Heart, her Here. I didn't use your technic thou but you inspired me to do it. Yay 😀
Great!
thanks for the video .i still improving my english .thanks to you rachel
Gretel Matos and i am improving my English do you wanna practice together =D ?
yea
mahmood rfaayy yesssss
=D ok so can you add me on Skype : sander.mahmalji
İ think the most important part, the final moment while we ‘re vibrating vocal cord, to sound strong an clear r which is really difficult to get used to it.
hi rachel ...... thanks for ur great video its realy useful .... can u include the pronunciation of word cur in ur upcoming videos as it really hard to pronounce ... have a great day 😊
+lina suhail I've actually never heard the word 'cur'.
Can u help with or words?
Hi Rachel!
I want to ask you a simple question: Do you have the guts to do a video on how to pronounce the word there. I´ve got some problems with it in american english pronuciation. I can do it perfectly in a british accent and I figured: wouldn´t it keep the theme of this video if you made a video on how to make the r sound smooth in the word there?
hi rachel!.since i have watched your videos,my speaking english has been improved!😇...but i found that i cannot speak naturally...😢,i think it's because of my native language(Vietnamese).😊.when i speak i cannot open my mouth comfortably
...but...i will try my best with the ways you share.😊.THANK YOU!.!!!
+Hằng Nguyễn . Have you seen Dark L sound video ? Special made for Vietnamese. I think It'll help you a lot. Keep it up.
Nomads Seven thank you, i know that sound and i made it!:)
Hey Rachel, can you please make a playlist of these videos about exercise tips? You have some videos like this with Tom, for example "Tongue relaxation tip & N sound". If you put them all together in a playlist, it'd help us to navigate them quickly. Thank you!
+Rayhan Mahmud Thanks for this suggestion!
+Rachel's English You're most welcome! :-)
Thanks for the tips Tom and Rachel! How do you link an [r] to an [r]? As in “you’re right”, because when I round my lips to make the beginning [r] in the second word, it sounds like a [w]: “you’re [w]right”. Thanks again!
I would blend the two Rs into one longer R sound.
At last!
It's funny because I was practicing my R sound and then you uploaded the video anyway Thank you Rachel you're always very helpful :)
+Fernando Gonzalez Monroy Perfect timing!
Fernando Gonzalez Monroy This morning I was looking for a video which explain that!
hi rachel ,can you visit us in Jordan ?
ara ara~
(Also / awesome) the sound is very similar. how to differentiate? help me please.
+Celia Santo`s Thanks for this suggestion!
I want learning english!
I know this comment is 3 years old, but have you been learning English?
🤩🤩🤩
Take it away!
Could you please tell us how you pronounce words such as "identity," "representative" and "identical"? I noticed that Americans do pronounce them differently from the British. It seems that there is a sound being omitted. Can you illustrate this please?
+Nada Elfaham Thanks for this suggestion!
👍
Dear you need to practice to get American r
👍👌🌹
how many months to take?
Hi! I'm not sure I understand your question. Can you rephrase it for me?
how many months to take to pronounce letter R?
Hi Rachel! ! So sometimes when I speak english, My vocal chords hurts because of some vowels
.do you have some tip? bye bye! !
+Marcelo Natalino It sounds like you may be straining. The neck and throat should be very relaxed when speaking English: rachelsenglish.com/neck-throat-relaxation-exercises-vocal-exercises/
+Rachel's English thanks a lot!! sorry about so many questions,because I sent by cell and there was some problem.
+Marcelo Natalino No problem.
hahaha they dont blink kinda creeps my anxiety
hi Rachel, l have a question what difference between get away & get out??
+sebastian alegria Get away can be used to talk about move away from something (used with 'from'): you (get away from me!), or an object (get away from the furnace, it's about to explode!). Get out means to remove yourself from a space: get out of the house, get out of your room, get out of the car.
Rachel's English thank you Rachel, one thing, if l'm going to travel at USA, what place do you recommend me to study English??
+sebastian alegria I have visited a couple of Kaplan schools, and the students seem to really enjoy them! www.kaplaninternational.com/schools/usa/learn-english.aspx
