What is the International Phonetic Alphabet?
16
It's a system of phonetic notation,
17
and I use it a lot on my website and when I teach students.

20
because English is not a phonetic language.

This means when you see a letter or a group of letters,
22
it will not necessarily be pronounced the same in each word in which it occurs,

just as in the example at the beginning of this video.

so this makes it easier to read about and write about pronunciation.

Why practice speaking with this video?

Practicing speaking through this engaging video is an excellent way to improve your English pronunciation using the shadowing technique. As you listen to the speaker articulate various consonant sounds, you can replicate their pronunciation in real-time, helping you internalize these specific sounds. This method not only enhances your clarity but also boosts your confidence in speaking. By repeating the sounds such as /t/, /v/, and /g/, you'll become more adept at familiar consonants that may not be pronounced as expected in written English. Plus, utilizing learn English with YouTube effectively integrates visual and auditory learning, making it a dynamic approach to language acquisition.

Grammar & Expressions in Context

  • Silent Letters: The speaker mentions 'T' being silent in the word "fasten." This highlights the importance of recognizing words with silent letters, a common occurrence in English.
  • Phonetic Notation: The use of the term 'International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)' is essential for learners. It introduces a standardized system to articulate sounds that vary from their spelling.
  • Sound Repetition: Phrases like "Say that with me" not only encourage interaction but also emphasize the importance of active engagement in learning pronunciation.

These structures are fundamental when practicing English as they encourage your participation and stimulate your ability to mimic sounds effectively.

Common Pronunciation Traps

English pronunciation can be particularly tricky, especially with sounds represented by the letter 'T'. For example:

  • In the word "thanks," the 'T' may not sound like what learners expect, often leading to confusion.
  • The presence of voiced and unvoiced 'TH' sounds in words like "this" and "thanks" can be challenging for non-native speakers.
  • Words such as "future" where 'T' is pronounced like /ch/ can confuse learners who are following standard pronunciation rules.

By paying attention to these peculiarities, you can better navigate the landscape of English phonetics. Utilizing shadowing sites provides an opportunity to practice and refine your pronunciation, helping you to overcome these common hurdles.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
