I post new videos every single Friday.
9
L is in words like light.
10
Okay.
11
So you can see the tip of my tongue here, it comes up to touch the top of my mouth and it kind of flops back down again.
12
It releases, okay.
13
And it creates this L, L, L sound.
14
Okay.
15
As in light.
16

17
Lucky.
18
Lucky.
19
Lovely.
20
Lovely.
21
And the last one, lonely.
22

23
So what tends to happen here is whenever you have a L and then you have a vowel after it, you're probably going to get what's called the light L.
24
So the light L appears before vowel sounds.
25
Contrary to this, we have the dark L and this comes after a vowel sound.
26
So let's take a word Fall.
27
okay like the light l for la I hold it. For.
28
And don't keep the sound going, OK?
29
Don't say foo.
30
Okay, I hear a lot of students doing that.
31
You need to cut that sound, but keep your tongue in that position where it's touching the top of your mouth.
32
Okay, some people describe it where you're not really touching the top of your mouth, but a lot of the time it usually is.
33
So let's go back to our target word, fall.
34
or or or or okay you can see i'm not releasing it i'm holding it at the top of my mouth
35
fall full Another example is pull.

Об этом уроке

Вы практикуете английский с "The Light L /l/ and Dark L [ɫ] in English" с помощью техники Shadowing — метода, разработанного для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков.

Слушайте каждое предложение, обращайте внимание на ударения и связывание звуков, затем повторяйте вслух уверенно. 15–30 минут ежедневной практики дадут заметные результаты.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
