[@steven117]

Very grateful for this offering MIT. I needed this review of my Choral Conservatory IPA class after 46 years. I study Japanese, Ukrainian, French and Latin and have sang (and got paid) in many more. Very helpful lectures θæŋk ju

[@Metaphyical0samak]

I am grateful

[@goclbert]

Reading the IPA sentences at the end felt so off-putting because so many of the words were just slightly different from how I would normally pronounce them.

It seems that you can do a "nasal stop" by starting with a closed velum and then opening it and letting some air through the nose in a short blast, making a "chench" kind of low squeaky sound. What is this called?

[@jimhiggs6281]

Unbelievable how this Mickey Mouse lecturer can teach at MIT! All this is BASIC SCHOOL PHONETICS!🤣🤣🤣

[@unofficialqt-vo8ly]

Unbelievable how people nowadays can just share all their worthless opinions with us. Just to get the attention they can't get in the real life.

[@WorldifySanity]

This linguist needs to remove "yeah" from his vocabulary. It is extremely distracting to hear it every 10 seconds.

[@candycottonwithapple]

Okay? Don't watch it then.
