Thank you Keenyn Rhodes. Your videoas helped me a lot. This is Abdifatah Ibrahim, from Hargeisa, Somalia. Could you please teach us the American pronouncation difference between these two words: President and Precedent. I hope you will accept this. Thanks a lot.
Oh my god! I owe you so much for these videos!!!! I was always saying deBt and douBts and haLf!!! When you clarify things and I pronounce them right for the first time, it instantly feels so much more natural and correct! THANK YOU KEENYN
Hi Keenyn, acually your sound inter in the heart not in ear, and make an eager to listen and repeat the lessons continously, you are a gift form the heaven to learn people perfect English language. I apprecaite your assistane considerably.
Thanks Keenyn for this great video. I also notice that many second language learners often mispronounce words with silent 'b' such as 'combing , bombing, climbing, plumber'.
Hi Keenyn! I'm so thankful you for your videos ! I already began to receive compliments for my pronunciation I also repeat after you every sentence that you say, because this wise i can exercise all the sounds together and also the music of the language! Keep making videos! You're the best american pronunciation coach!
Dear Keenyn ma'am You're the reason why I chose to learn American English over British English. I praise the way you teach us. I hope y'll keep helping us. Stay safe.
Hello dear teacher... Your examples are truly useful and accurate. Thanks for sharing you knowlegde and experience. . You've earn a new subscriber. Bye. .
Conversely, there are a few words where people think a letter is silent when it isn't. For example, "obvious". The 'b' in 'obvious' not silent. It is pronounced.
Hi Keenyn!! Another great video!! Your lessons are very easy to understand. Thank you for sharing them with us. Is amazing how many silence letters are in the English language. And as I always say, you deserve more subscribers, just be constant and keep doing such a wonderful work and the results will come.
Dear coach, Regarding the sound of "rd"at the end of a word and followed by next word beginning with a consonant, should the "d" be pronounced or become silent? For example, I heard some say " third floor" as [θɝ flor]--the"d"becoming silent, and some say"hard life" as [hard life]--the[d] still be pronounced?
Hi Keenyn Watching you teach so passionately is a pleasant experience. You teach with wonderful clarity and enthusiasm. Eagerous to see you with a new lesson. Making the most of lockdown due to you. Love
Hello! I have a question about American accent. Is it correct not to turn " T "sound into "d" sound when it comes between two voules such as water, better, daughter and etc? Please answer my question and thank you so much.
I was pronouncing the H in herbs until recently when I realized it was just like hour. In French we don’t pronounce the h so I always intentionally pronounced it in English until I realized the only difference between the two words is the r and not the h.
"I would if I could, but I do not think I should." I like it :)
I like it too! Amazing!
