- 👉 English Pronunciation can be CRAZY sometimes and we can see that clearly with the NINE Ways to Pronounce the letters OUGH in English.
👉 In this Pronunciation lesson I will show you the 9 different ways OUGH can be pronounced and we will practice some difficult OUGH words and tongue twisters so you can master pronunciation of this letter formation in English. We will also have a short TEST at the end so you can check if you are learning!
👉 There are SOME rules for OUGH pronunciation in English, for example if the OUGH is followed by a 'T' then it is usually pronounced /ɔː/. HOWEVER there are not many other reliable rules so the BEST WAY to learn is to learn BY HEART (by memory). Practice and repeat my words and then practice the longer English Sentences until you can feel your pronunciation improving!
👉 This lesson also includes plenty of practice with English Vowel Sounds so it's a good place if you want some extra practice with some difficult Diphthongs and Long vowel sounds!

Hi, proessor James :Incredible easy and good explanations. I've been reviewing Engish forever and this is the first time I've seen such a good explanations, congratulatios!! I'm from Spain but I've lived in Texas for a lot of years. The vowels sounds are particularly hard for Spanish people. I've decided to stop studying grammar and concentrate practicing the vowels, contractions rhythm. I understand almost everything but I sound pretty bad; yes, I hate it!!
Great video !
Thanks so much teacher .
I love all your videos . It’s really help me.

Thanks you teacher from Ecuador
You’re welcome! 🙂
I enjoyed your video and it was very informative and educational. My last name is Loughry which in my eyes people pronounce wrong most of the time. I was raised to pronounce it like lockry, which with some research, I have learned that's how it was originally and to this day pronounced in Ireland, so if this is any useful information, I hope you can use it.
Thank you teacher, i from indonesia
All words seem smaller to evaluate your unique teaching. Thanks and bless a lot

You’re welcome Driss! 🙂

You forgot GOUGH pronounced G O W J MEANING TO make (a groove, hole, or indentation) with or as with a sharp tool or blade. Example :- "He used his pen knife to gouge a hole in the wood." Please realise I mean no disrespect when saying this. I think your videos are extremely helpful and brilliantly made. You are a very good and patient teacher. Excellent work 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Hi dear teacher where are you we missed you
Yes! I really miss him so much.
Can you explain how to use plough please
A plough (noun) is a farming instrument.
To plough (verb) is a farming action that means to turn over some dirt (earth) before planting seeds in the ground.
Be careful, because in many North American accents (USA and Canada) they use “Plow” instead of “Plough” which is what British speakers use.
Hello James sir!🙂🙏

There are Words that have endings (-ance and ence) ; ( -ant and -ent) ; ( -able and ible). Do these endings have the same pronunciation? Why are they given different spelling? Please explain it. Thank you!
They are actually pronounced differently but I'm not sure how to explain it though. I am a native English speaker
🎉🎉🎉
👍
In test is c first anwser then a and e can you reply if yes
Test 1 the answer is c. Cough
Test 2 the answer is a.though and b. dough
Test 1: a; Test 2: a and e
Loughborough is particularly strange here as its pronounced luffburra.
Teacha is (D)
Though Lough
📝
Hiccough is a verb right?
Loch isn’t pronounced like lock though, so does that mean there are ten ways to say ough? I take my hat off to people learning English! 👏
Cough and engh
1: odd one is enough and 2: cough lough
ในที่สุดฉันก็ค้นพบคุณครูที่รู้จริงเกี่ยวกับภาษาอังกฤษฉันเพิ่งเรียนรู้ภาษาอังกฤษเมื่อไม่นานมานี้แต่ฉันก็ยังสงสัยกับการออกเสียงแต่เมื่อฉันได้กดเข้ามาดูวีดีโอของคุณใช่เลยมันตอบโจทย์ทุกข้อที่ฉันสงสัยฉันเริ่มที่จะเข้าใจมากขึ้นขอบคุณมากๆค่ะคุณครู
Through

Sir James.,... You didn't distinguish please tell us why it can be pronounced differently
