Dear Julie, I follow you recently on UA-cam. I loved the tone of your voice and your style of explaining the lesson. I will follow you a lot to learn a lot from you, but you have all the likes. Thank you, I wish you success
Thanks, Ameen! :) I'm glad you like the lesson!
In my case, most useful lesson ever, so far.
That's great to hear - thanks, Mykle! :)
Julie you read my mind! Some days ago I was wondering when to use "S" or "Z" sound at the endings. Great lesson. A bunch of thanks.
Awesome - glad I could help! :)
Native speakers, you too pronounce the /z/ sound closer to /s/ when the ending sounds are the nasal sounds, mostly /n/ the laterals and the stop sounds. It’s called devoicing. What do you think?
Since all the vowels are voiced, I wonder why after the "u" vowel the S is voiceless in these words; Bus, us, pus, gus ( unless the dictionary is wrong)
Hi Edo - Thanks for your question :) The dictionary is correct - it's /s/!
Thank you so much, i like long video. you have a nice plants in the background.
Thanks Ramzy! I like my plants, too :)
Bonjour, je ne comprends pas pourquoi moves=no, pourtant dans le dictionnaire, on indique : He moves. Et dans la phrase suivante aussi: The dance teacher showed me some simple moves. Vous avez sûrement raison, mais dans quel contexte move ne se met pas au pluriel. Merci beaucoup! J’adore vous vidéos. Ils nous donnent de bons outils pour mieux comprendre, et ça fait longtemps que je cherchais les explications que vous nous transmettez. Merci pour votre excellent travail! Êtes-vous originaire de San Diego? Je suis très débutante, je dois ajouter la traduction, mais malgré tout, je parviens à bien vous comprendre, vous prononcez tellement bien. C’est facile pour les débutants de vous suivre, je viens de vous découvrir et je suis tellement contente, car ça m’aide beaucoup. 🇨🇦Linda
Bonjour Linda! Merci pour votre question. Cependant, je ne suis pas sûr de comprendre ce que vous demandez. Pouvez-vous clarifier ce que vous vouliez dire à propos du mot « mouvements » dans les deux phrases que vous avez fournies ? PS : Je suis très heureuse que vous ayez trouvé ma chaîne et que mes vidéos vous aient été utiles ! :)
Congratulations for "10K" Subscribers. I wish you more progress and success.
Thank you, Ramzy! :)
Bonjour Julie, comment savoir quand la prononciation se termine par 1. /. [ˈnoʊtəsəz]
2. [ˈnoʊtɪsɪz information prise dans toPhonetics, il semble qu’on puisse les prononcer de deux façons différentes, qu’en penses-tu? Une réponse serait grandement appréciée pour enlever mon interrogation??? Merci beaucoup pour tes précieux conseils! Comprendre, nous permet d’avoir le goût de continuer notre apprentissage de l’anglais et c’est ce que tu nous transmets et je l’apprécie beaucoup. Bye et au plaisir de te lire! Bonne Journée! 🇨🇦Linda
great explanation! Although I am a little confused because I did not hear any difference in some words. for instance, the final "s" is pronounced the same way in the words "groups" and "grabs". I mean, both are pronounced as voiceless, but in "grabs" it should sound voiced as explained in the video. why is that so, teacher?
Hi Elias - Thanks so much for your question! The final /z/ sound loses some of its voicing, so that it sometimes sounds like an /s/, or like a /z/ with very light voicing at the very beginning of the sound. This means the final "s" in "groups" and "grabs" ends up sounding very similar, like /s/, but the IPA transcription will still show "grabs" with /z/ at the end. I hope this helps! :)
Great lesson:D
Great - thanks! Glad you liked it! :)
so...how you celebrating 10k when it happens?????
(congrats on all the success!)
Hi there! :) Thank you! 10K is very exciting, and hopefully I'll just keep chugging along. I hope things are going well for you!!
@@SanDiegoVoiceandAccent if you're down for a collab again soon, let me know! maybe that could help!
we're good; son just started preschool. It's strange having time during the day!
@@FluentAmerican Congrats on your son starting preschool - that's a huge milestone for both of you! :) Sure - another collab sounds great!
I loved to learn with you
Awesome! I'm so glad to hear that! :)
Hello! Do you have a video using ARTICLE and in sentences? ej..When to use, The woman and A woman ? Thanks in advance

Bonjour, désolée Julie, je n’avais pas lu la question, tu parlais de l’ajout d’une syllabe, maintenant je comprends pour moves=non, désolée de t’avoir déranger. J’aurais par contre, une question à te poser. Je me sers des outils souvent pour avoir la transcription phonétique des mots : Cambridge Dictionary (mais on ne retrouve pas tous les mots), je me sers donc de toPhonetics, mais parfois il y a des mots qui ne sont pas traduits en phonétique. Au début, je me servais des sites How many syllables?, et je me suis rendue compte que les syllabes n’étaient pas situées au même endroit que dans les dictionnaires. Puis-je te demander SVP quels sont les outils que tu utilises pour la transcription phonétique? Aussi, lorsqu’on désire apprendre l’anglais américain, il faut faire attention, car les accents toniques des mots ne sont pas toujours situés au même endroit que l’anglais américain. J’aimerais beaucoup connaître ton point de vue par rapport à mon questionnement. Je suis très contente de t’avoir découverte, car j’apprécie beaucoup ton enseignement. Ce n’est pas tous les enseignants qui ont la pédagogie et qui prononce aussi bien que toi. J’espère que tu continueras longtemps à faire des vidéos. Bye et bonne journée! 🇨🇦Linda, débutante.
Thank you in advance dear Julie! I’m perplexed to learn, according to the dictionary, that the word “ditz”, which ends in the letter Z is not pronounced as Z at the end. Could you explain why?😍
Hi lwkbilly - Thanks for your comment! My best guess is this: The letter "z" in the word "ditz" is pronounced like /s/ because of the /t/ that comes before it. The T /t/ is voiceless, so the letter "z" is also voiceless, which makes it /s/. This type of "rule" might not be true for every word that has "tz" at the end, but that's my best guess as it why it happens in the word "ditz". I hope this helps! :)
@@AmericanEnglishForHindiUrdu Dear Julie- Thank you so much for your prompt reply! Armed with your explanation I looked up “waltz”. Lo and behold, the Z at the end of “waltz” is also pronounced like /s/. So, you’re right. Thank you so much for enlightening me!
@@lwkbilly Awesome! That's great you were able to find another word that followed the same pronunciation rule :) Thanks for letting me know about it!
Julie, Happy Halloween to you and your family. ☺💞🎃💞👻💕
Hi @Shawn - Thank you! I hope you had a great Halloween, too :)
why don't your newer videos have close up footage of your mouth?
Hi yungwest00 - Thanks for your question :) I'm exploring other ways of making videos that don't always include close-up shots of my mouth, but I appreciate your comment. Thanks! :)
