The example “there are bits of cake on the floor” you wrote that the S pronounced as “z” but it should be “s” because the t letter is voiceless or without vibration 🤔🤔🤔🤔
ElementalEnglish is one of the best and impressive video tutorials I've ever found on youtube. Thanks to the beautiful lady with a very clear, beautiful, and perfect voice who generously share the ideas and techniques of learning the English language. All the uploaded videos from this ElementalEnglish channel are IMPECCABLE and I think that's the best word to describe all the upoaded video tutorials, most especially to the lady who put her best, knowledge, and effort to all the videos. It was such a great work indeed. Keep up the good work! Once again, thank you so much for all the videos. These videos will be of great help to me in honing my english speaking skill. I will absolutely share this to my fellow filipino friends. Wish you all the best in life. From the Philippines, Ace
In fact you can say "is" as both an /iz/ and /is/ sound, depending on your own preferences whether to emphasise your arguments. According to Cambridge Dictionary. Look it up yourself.
How come at 06:17 "bits of" are pronounced as "bitze" when you earlier noted that if "s" is preceded by silent "t" then it carries on without vibration?
This is a fantastic question. Any time there's a change in sound, mostly likely a sound before or after the change has caused it. Here, when I anticipated the vocal chord vibration from the [v] in "of" [əv], it led me to vibrate my vocal chords early and transform the [s] --> [z]. (See other lessons on transformation in sound for more clarification on vocal chord vibration). I didn't do this consciously or on purpose. It's just something I must have done unconsciously when speaking naturally and with the goal of efficiency. I probably would never have noticed it had you not said anything!
Because in the phrase 'bits of', there is i and o before and after the ts sound, which makes it sounds like tz. Same thing like Water -> Wader, Tomato -> Tomado, and so on.
Thank you for sharing, for the example “bits”,it should sound/s/? Or /z/? The note given in your example shown /z/ which is different from the rules given. Thank you
Hello professor Thank you so much for your priceless advice and interesting guidance. I really appreciate your job. I wish you peace and happiness under the sky of prosperity. All the best. Your follower from Algeria.
I don't have words to prise you madam. your explanation is really amazing awesome and excellent.. you are doing good job in order to serve the people in the world
I'm killing myself trying to find info on the s added to third person singular verbs. Are the rules exactly the same? I'm looking like a fool in front of my students because I confused the spelling rules with the pronunciation rules.
Great video! Just a quick question, I’ve been hearing the rules like if it ends in r, d, b, g, l...etc then it’ll be a z sound. Is that correct? what about the words like Letters Papers ( usually I heard ending s sound..same as with friends.) Friends Cars Toys Do they all have the z sound at the ends? Thank you!
I have a doubt, When you mention the word ( slices) that is supposed to be with ( IZ sound), did you mention the (z) sound ?? or Does it sound like ( IS) ?
I have a question. If I correctly understand the lession, all words terminated by "ion", for example: nations, computations, pronunciations,.. the plurial will be pronunced /z/, right? My friends doesn't agree with me, because we don't pronunce the letter "n", so for him, the rule cannot be applicated. And he hears people always pronunce /s/. So, the words terminated by"ion", the plurial will be pronuced /z/ or /s/ ?

Super helpful and very well explained for my little 7 year old, Zoe. Thanks!
Thank you madam for your wonderful lesson...you expressed expressively in an exquisite manner...
It’s the best video among the pronunciation videos 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
In fact you can say "is" as both an /iz/ and /is/ sound, depending on your own preferences whether to emphasise your arguments. According to Cambridge Dictionary. Look it up yourself.
6:12 why ending sound of "bits" pronounce 'z'? It contradicts the previous rule at 0:37
couldnt have asked for an better explaination. you nailed it. thanks

@@WitheredChestnut what if there is no of
Best explanation ever. Thanks.
Thank you for sharing, for the example “bits”,it should sound/s/? Or /z/? The note given in your example shown /z/ which is different from the rules given. Thank you
Yes it was a mistake its bit[s] sense [t] is a voiceless consonant

Excellent job! Thank you. So useful and well explained by the speaker and graphics.

The echo and the black background make the video a bit surreal :-D
Your videos are awesome!
gracias me ayudo mucho. thanks it help me to much
Don't forget to add an S to the third person always!
"It helpS me so much" :D
I'm killing myself trying to find info on the s added to third person singular verbs. Are the rules exactly the same? I'm looking like a fool in front of my students because I confused the spelling rules with the pronunciation rules.
Have you solved the problem?
Excellent 👍👌
The name of the boy
there are bits of the cake on the floor. bits end the sound is t right? cause p,t,k,f . can s.o help? i have seem Z sound. thank you
Great video! Just a quick question, I’ve been hearing the rules like if it ends in r, d, b, g, l...etc then it’ll be a z sound. Is that correct? what about the words like
Letters
Papers ( usually I heard ending s sound..same as with friends.)
Friends
Cars
Toys
Do they all have the z sound at the ends?
Thank you!
Bit ends with a voiceless sound and you put a z at the end? You confuse me!
Me too!
It's most likely a typo/error. I think it should end with a voiceless s sound.
I'm so confused :(
That was an amazign video!
Thank you sooo much for sharing these tips!
That's the best video I've watched about the sounds of the plural. Nice job and thank u very much.
Me gustó el video
I have a doubt, When you mention the word ( slices) that is supposed to be with ( IZ sound), did you mention the (z) sound ?? or Does it sound like ( IS) ?
It's always [IZ] as far as I know...
Very helpful. Thank you very much
جميل جداً استمري💓
Great job this help me a lot to understand better my phonetic of English class Thank you!
merci beaucoup vraiment c est très balle
very useful video; thanks a lot but could u tell me the pronunciation of the final S in abilities and facilities is it S. Z or IZ ? thanks in advance
I have a question.
If I correctly understand the lession, all words terminated by "ion", for example: nations, computations, pronunciations,.. the plurial will be pronunced /z/, right?
My friends doesn't agree with me, because we don't pronunce the letter "n", so for him, the rule cannot be applicated. And he hears people always pronunce /s/.
So, the words terminated by"ion", the plurial will be pronuced /z/ or /s/ ?
x x the /n/-sound is voiced, so the the following plural "s" is pronounced as /z/.
Definitely you are the best!
Hi, I would like to ask about the words ended with /i/ and /ɪ/ how should we pronouns?
for example: Copies, activities, and replies.
+Ye Xiong all of your examples end with the [iyz] sound (the same sound in "cheese", for example).
This video is very helpfull thank you very much, but I'm sorry may I ask, is it British or American?
American
Annisa Nafisa Latifah American
Fantastic 👍what about comes!
Thank you for this great lesson! It helped me a lot!
So bosses will use iz, right?
I think I found a mistake.
“There are bits of cake on the floor.”
“Bits“ not 〔z〕but 〔S〕
天海地旅人 you fucking right thanks moron
Yeah you're right
Hvfswaxtcstgjhbfedxyggubdq
Thanks!
I still don´t get whether the /z/ in /iz/ is voiced or voiceless
Good job
Please I need to know exceptions to this rule.
