Hi, everyone. Do you know what the IPA is? It's the International Phonetic Alphabet.
2
These are the symbols that represent the sounds we say. Can you read this sentence?
3
I speak English.
4
Do you have to know the IPA to become fluent in English? No. Do you have to know the IPA to have good pronunciation? No. Not necessarily. But if you know the IPA, it's a tool that can help you. Being familiar with the IPA will make more information accessible to you, like the pronunciation listed in a dictionary. You'll also have greater awareness of individual sounds, and this will help you both hear and produce clearer contrasts between similar sounds.
5
I'm Jennifer from English with Jennifer, and using the IPA, I'd like to take you through the consonant and vowel sounds in American English. Please note there are variations of the IPA, but having familiarity with one system will make it easier to understand another. I often refer to the Longman Dictionary of American English, and I have a number of pronunciation textbooks in my personal library. One I've always liked is Accurate English by Rebecca Dauer.
6
Let's start with the consonant sounds. It's easy to recognize B, P, D, and T. Look. When we see the letter B, we say /b/. Can you read this word?
7
Baby. Note the use of the stress symbol to show that the first syllable is stressed: baby. P is /p/. How about this word? It's something we all desire: peace. The letter D makes the sound /d/. If you understood how to read "peace," you can figure out this word: deep. A true T sounds like /t/. Do you remember this word? Baby. So now try to read this word: date. Good.
8
Now in American English the letter T can have different pronunciations.
9
In a word like "little," we use a flap T. It looks like this. Here's how we write "little." So can you figure out this word? Battle.
10
American English speakers may use a glottal stop in a word like "fountain." There are different symbols for a glottal stop. One of them looks like this. We often use a glottal stop when T comes before a pause or another consonant sound. Read these words with me, and we'll use a glottal stop.
11
At. It. What.
12
The symbols for G and K are easy to recognize. The letter G sounds like /g/.
13
What word is this? Pig. The letter K sounds like /k/. Read these words: pick, key. Good.
14
Let's look at four more symbols that are easy to read. They represent V, F, Z, and S. V is /v/. Read these words: give, live. F is /f/. Can you read these words?
15
If. Fit. Z is /z/. Where might you see a monkey if you live in a big city? At a zoo. S is /s/. If this is "zoo," then what girl's name is this? Sue. Right.
16
Excellent. Next, we have two symbols for "th." If TH is voiced, we use this symbol, as in: though, those. If TH is unvoiced, we use this symbol, as in: thin, thought.
17
The "j" sound can have different spellings, but the phonetic symbol is this. A short version of my name is "Jen." Can you recognize who this person is? Judge.
18
This symbol represents /tʃ/, which can be written with a CH or a TCH.
19
What part of the face is this? Chin. And some people still wear a watch.
20
How do we tell people to be quiet? Shh. Read these words with me. She. Sheep. Sheet.
21
This symbol represents present /ʒ/ as in: treasure, measure. The phonetic symbols for H, L, M, and N are thankfully easier to read. H sounds like /h/ as in "head." L makes the /l/ sound. Read these words with me. Led. Let. List.
22
M is /m/ as in: met, mist. N is /n/ as in "net: and the number "ten." Have you ever seen this symbol? It kind of looks like "n," right? It represents the "ng" sound. Can you read these words?
23
Ring. Sing.
24
R as a consonant sounds like /r/. You just read "ring," so what's this word? Wrong.
25
The W and Y sounds are also easy to recognize. W sounds like /w/. Can you read these words?
26
Wing. Wet. Y sounds like /y/. I'm confident you can read these words: yes, yet. Good job.
27
For more detailed information about how the consonant sounds are made, you can watch my video on the 24 consonant sounds in American English.
28
Now it's time to go through the vowel sounds. Ready? There are 15 vowel sounds in American English. Again, there are different systems, so other resources may not match the list I'm sharing with you, but it does correspond to my playlist on Vowel Sounds in American English.
29
First, read the front vowels with me. /i, ɪ, eɪ, ɛ, æ/ Now see if you can match words to their phonetic transcriptions.
30
Here are two more vowel sounds. First, "uh" as in "fun." But if this sound is unstressed, you'll see the schwa symbol. It looks like an upside down "e." This is the same sound basically, but it's unstressed. Which syllable is stressed in the word "confident"? Confident. The first one is stressed, right? This means the other two vowel sounds are unstressed. Take a look at the phonetic transcription. Confident. See how the "e" becomes a schwa? In fact, some dictionaries show "confident" like this, with two schwa symbols. Confident. The truth is that the difference between a short i and a schwa in an unstressed syllable in fast speech can be really hard to hear hard to hear with confidence. Confident. Confidence. Confidently.
31
Look at the stressed syllable in "confident" again, and you'll see this symbol. Confident. /ɑ/ as in "confident" and as in "father." Now say these back vowel sounds with me. /u, ʊ, oʊ, ɔ/ For Some American English speakers, including me, there isn't always a big difference between /ɔ/ in "jaw" and /ɑ/ as in "father" or "confident." In fact, I have to really think about it to produce a clear difference. Can you match these words to their phonetic transcriptions?
32
Now we'll look at three diphthongs. They each use two symbols because they represent a gliding from one vowel sound to another. Repeat after me. /aɪ, aʊ, ɔɪ/ Can you read the words?
33
like how toy kite around moist tonight shout join Great. Finally we have this symbol to represent /ɚ/.
34
I know the /ɚ/ sound is a tricky sound for many learners to pronounce. If you need a more detailed explanation, you can go to my playlist on vowel sounds in American English. Read with me.
35
sir shirt flirt learn work term Now see if you can read these words that use other vowel sounds in combination with /ɚ/.
36
ear fair heart more higher power How about a final challenge to review everything? Again, the goal here is increased familiarity with the IPA. I don't expect you to have all the symbols memorized at this point, especially if you've never seen the symbols before. We're going to read slowly. Okay?
37
But if you really want to challenge yourself, you can pause the video. Read aloud. Then play the video. Listen and check to see if you read the symbols correctly.
38
Pronunciation is important, but that doesn't mean you have to lose your accent. Look back at "pronunciation." You'll see two stress marks. That's because there's primary stress and secondary stress. This is common in longer words. Look at "important." I just said that carefully and with a true T. With faster, more relaxed pronunciation, I'd probably use a glottal stop: important. Also, the sound /ɔr/ can be written a couple different ways. Some dictionaries will show it like this. Others may show it like that.
39
I prefer the /ɚ/ sound because then it reminds me that we're really combining two vowel sounds.
40
/ɔɚ/ Important or important. Finally you'll see some reduction here. "To" is reduced because it's not stressed. So I say /tə/. Also, "your" is reduced. Tt's not stressed, so I say /yɚ/. Your. Your accent.
41
You don't have to sound exactly like a native speaker. Note how I flap the T in "native." Even native speakers have accents.
42
The main goal should be to speak clearly and accurately.
43
Note that the word "clearly" can also be transcribed this way. And some dictionaries may list accurately with a second schwa sound because that syllable is unstressed.
44
Accent training is about accent reduction, and you work towards having smooth, clear speech.
45
So continue your pronunciation practice, but have realistic goals and have faith that your training will pay off.
46
Here's the full text, and I'll read at a natural pace.

القواعد في هذا الفيديو
أكثر التراكيب التي يستخدمها المتحدث، مع العبارات نفسها من الفيديو:
| التركيب | في الفيديو |
|---|---|
| المبني للمجهول be + اسم المفعول — التركيز على ما يحدث لا على من يفعله | is stressed · is voiced · can be written |
| المضارع التام have/has + اسم المفعول — حدث ماضٍ ما زال له أثر الآن | I've always liked · you've never seen |
| الاحتمال بـ “might / may” might/may + فعل — شيء ممكن لكنه غير مؤكد | may use · may not match · may show |
| النصيحة بـ “should” should + فعل — قول ما يُستحسن فعله | should be |
نطق يحتاج إلى انتباه
يستخدم المتحدث 26 من الصيغ المختصرة، مثل you'll, don't, I'd. انطقها بصيغتها القصيرة كما تسمعها.
- أصوات “sh” و“zh”: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, schwa /ʃwɑ/, dictionary /ˈdɪk.ʃəˌnɛ.ɹi/, transcription /tɹænˈskɹɪpʃən/, notification /ˌnoʊtɪfɪˈkeɪʃn̩/
- الكلمات الطويلة — انتبه لموضع النبر: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, dictionary /ˈdɪk.ʃəˌnɛ.ɹi/, accurately /ˈæk.jə.ɹɪt.li/, familiarity /fəmɪliˈæɹɪti/, notification /ˌnoʊtɪfɪˈkeɪʃn̩/
أصوات يجدها متحدثو العربية صعبة:
- /p/ — ليس /b/: انطقه مع نفخة هواء: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, transcription /tɹænˈskɹɪpʃən/, flap /flæp/, playlist /ˈpleɪˌlɪst/, pause /pɔːz/
- /v/ — ليس /f/: مع اهتزاز الأوتار الصوتية: vowel /ˈvaʊ.əl/, unvoiced /ˌʌnˈvɔɪst/, variation /ˌvɛəɹiˈeɪʃn̩/
- تتابع الصوامت — لا تضف حركة بينها: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, accent /ækˈsɛnt/, consonant /ˈkɑn.sə.nənt/, glottal /ˈɡlɑ.təl/, schwa /ʃwɑ/

ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟
التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
