    I've been studying and teaching English for over 35 years. This is the first time I can see such a clear explanation about pronunciation rules. Very good teacher:

    Thank you for the good lesson. I didn't know the word "close" sometimes means a road. The phrase "on the loose" is new to me. I learned a lot again today! Every time I come to your lesson, I enjoy everything you give to us. I appreciate not only your English lesson, but your aura of elegance and gentility!

      A close is a closed-off road -it doesn't lead anywhere.

    I have been studying English language for years and this is the first time I hear about this difference in pronounciation, I'm very thankful that I found this clever lady who teaches perfect English.
    I will be watching more of your videos, Professor.

    This is so well done. I felt like I went back 20 years and was sitting in my English class, surrounded by my classmates. I was even picturing what those classmates were thinking and how they were processing the lecture, as if I were in their heads. Such a reminiscent feeling.

    I'm totally blown away, I've been researching about s vs z patterns, but haven't seen this tip yet and today I was wondering why sometimes I hear "use" and sometimes I hear "uze".

    1 house -> /hous/

    @JaneDoe-ci3gj 4 роки тому

    I'm Swedish and I find it hard to make the z sound as we don't have the z sound in Swedish! We pronouce z like s! If it's a foreign word it's sometimes pronounced ts, but never z.
    Now at least I know when the s in English words should be pronounced z!
    Now I've just got to practice the sound z!
    Great lesson, thanks!👍
