So is the correct pronunciation of "think" "thingk"?　When pronouncing the "g" sound,
can I assume that I am "stopping the air"?

[@SpeechModification]

No, we don't have a /g/ sound in "think," we have an /ŋ/ "ng" sound, which is a continuing sound. The /ŋ/ sound is a continuing sound, the tongue is just sealing further back in the mouth than it does for the /n/ sound. Here's more on the "ng" sound: ua-cam.com/video/-DZ5GICTHVU/v-deo.html

[@rubybaguio2320]

So helpful thank you

[@fernandobs177]

Please. Make a video talking about the 'i" sound before' ng' like "doing" "saying" ❤️

[@SpeechModification]

Vowel /ɪ/ is the vowel in those words - here are a few videos to help you with it: ua-cam.com/video/hR5zLE4JPI0/v-deo.html, ua-cam.com/video/F18ajUyKBB0/v-deo.html

Moving from s to th can be hard - here's a clip where I talk about it:

Hello :) you teach so well 😊

[@SpeechModification]

Thank you Saima, that means a lot to me!

[@sarmisthachakraborty5031]

Ma'am, can you please clarify me the sound of "longer"( as an adjective) and "longer " as a verb?

[@SpeechModification]

Yes, "longer" the adjective has the "ng" /ŋ/ sound plus the "g" sound - /lɔŋgɚ/ and "longer" the noun (someone who longs - I'm not sure this is really a word though) would be just the "ng" sound /lɔŋɚ/. So "longer" the adjective is pronounced like "finger" and "hunger," but the one associated with the verb "to long for" is pronounce like "singer" and "ringer." You can get more help for ng sounds and spelling in this video: ua-cam.com/video/-DZ5GICTHVU/v-deo.html
