Hello Noona! That is great to hear! Please share this video with your classmates and subscribe - I have many videos about English phonology on my channel :-)
Thank you for your efforts I have a midterm exam on phonetics on Saturday and I really had a difficulty with fricatives but now everything is clear to me
Thanks a lot, Billie! I was looking for a well-explained and detailed class like this one but I just didn't find one as yours! Saved me! Thank you so much, again!
many people say that “zh” sound is not “common” in English but I do not agree with that because there are some super common English words such as “usual/usually/etc” “vison/television/division” Measure“ “decision” “treasure/treasury” “version” and many other popular words that use the zh sound, which makes the sound very important, in my opinion
@@BillieEnglish please ma'am can you send your WhatsApp number because I am 21 Year old and I am student of BS ENGLISH and my English language is very weak because the lack of English environment please ma'am can you send your cell number? its my humble request 🥺😢🙏
Where are you from mam? Please make a video about your introduction in short so that i can connect you and the languages and your journey of becoming a teacher finally..Hope you would do such things.. I am excited about that.
That's a lovely idea! Yes, I will try and make a channel trailer with an introduction! Actually, there is a short introduction of myself in my video on Part 1 of the Cambridge English Advanced exam (CAE) - you can find the video on my channel :-)
Hello! The IPA officially contains sound symbols to describe any language (not just English). We take certain symbols from it to create a special chart for English. Most resources will use slightly different charts for American vs. British English - the main differences are in the vowel sound section. In my videos I use the chart for British English that most resources agree on.
For a while now I've notice the /h/ fricative as coming just before the voiced portion of many h or w words. Does it always anticipate the voiced portion of these words? Some people seem to use more of it than others.
Hi! The information in the video is correct. It is a voiced TH. You can check it in a dictionary as well: dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/with
Hi Mohammed! I can definitely help you with question 2: Vowel sounds are all voiced. They also form the centre (= nucleus) of a syllable. The sound /h/ is unvoiced and never forms a syllable nucleus. I hope this helps! I'm not sure I understand question 1.
Asked Siri to define a French word…I’m now positive I completely botched it but it brought me here. “/Š/he’/Š/-A-/s/uper-/f/ric-/s/uper-/f/ric-/Š/he’/Š/-/s/uper-/f/ricative.” lol
The IPA (= International Phonetic Alphabet) was developed by A.J. Ellis, Henry Sweet, Daniel Jones, and Paul Passy in the late 19th century. Most of the symbols use Roman characters but there are also some borrowed from Greek. I must confess I do not know why they chose exactly these symbols for each sound!
Welcome to connected speech in English! /t/ in 'heart is dropped when we speak fast. 'of' becomes /əf/ and the 'th' is dropped too and joins the 'of' - I hope this makes sense. Have a look at my video on 'Assimilation, Intrustion and Elision' which exlains this in more detail. Next week, I'll be posting a video on dropped consonants with some more examples.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video lesson Claudia 😊 I'm sorry to correct you but these two pairs of words are minimal pairs. Remember we go by sound, not spelling. Best look them up in an online dictionary so you can easily compare the phonemic transcription of each pair, that will make it clear.
@@BillieEnglish thank you for your prompt response. I used an online Received Pronunciation translator. Could you please recommend an official transcription site for the IPA alphabet? Thank you!
I have a question please help me l have an exam tomorrow.. Can you give me the word that begin with the voiced post alveolar fricative l know that is rare 🥺🥺💔

This is not zh sound ..it is long z symbol only with ya sound
Excellent way of teaching!

IPA chart is for British pronunciation ? Or for American?

Good video, but error at 12:12: "with" is unvoiced and should not be listed with voiced.
Hi! The information in the video is correct. It is a voiced TH. You can check it in a dictionary as well:
dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/with
Just awesome ❤️
thanks alot
I have two questions,answer me please😥😥
1_why the fricative is complex
2_we regard the /h/ as consonant why we regard this consonant
Hi Mohammed! I can definitely help you with question 2: Vowel sounds are all voiced. They also form the centre (= nucleus) of a syllable. The sound /h/ is unvoiced and never forms a syllable nucleus.

I'm not sure I understand question 1.

Hello Billie,
I was watching a video and I heard:
"Hearfem"
but the transcript says:
"Heart of them"
Welcome to connected speech in English!
/t/ in 'heart is dropped when we speak fast. 'of' becomes /əf/ and the 'th' is dropped too and joins the 'of' - I hope this makes sense. Have a look at my video on 'Assimilation, Intrustion and Elision' which exlains this in more detail. Next week, I'll be posting a video on dropped consonants with some more examples.
@@BillieEnglish I'll watch your video. Thank you!
more examples of words pronunciation pls
Good!
is IC in ice also belong to unvoiced /s/
Yes! The word 'ice' is /aɪs/ - with an unvoiced /s/ fricative.
Hi thank you for a wonderful lesson. But see and she are not minimal pairs and some and thumb also not.

My primary language is Turkish. There's no dental fricatives in my primary language.
❤️
I have a question please help me l have
an exam tomorrow.. Can you give me the
word that begin with the voiced post alveolar fricative l know that is rare

You mean you want an example word with the sound /ʒ/? For example: television, leisure, pleasure ...
Good luck in your exam!
