American English Pronunciation Podcast (Pronuncian.com), #05: American English pronunciation of the r sound and l sound

#05: American English pronunciation of the r sound and l sound

#5: American English pronunciation of the r sound and l sound Practice saying and hearing the difference between the r sound and l sound Transcript Hello again, and welcome back to Seattle Learning Academy's American English Pronunciation podcast.

My name is Mandy, and this is podcast #5. Today we are going to continue our study of the two liquid sounds, the r sound and l sound . Today's practice sentence is, "I would really like a little red wagon like Laura's." We'll come back to that later. Did you practice last week's practice sentence?

"On Thursday, Thelma threw three red rocks." I'm going to start only going back and reviewing the past three show's practice sentences or word sets. Our s sound / z sound practice with the s endings from two weeks ago was "Cats love boxes, dogs love beds." Remember that the final sound of the word before the -s ending dictates if the final s will be like an s sound or z sound . And our word set from Episode Two was: "dime, time; dense, tense; code, coat; tide, tight; spend, spent. Last week we talked about the fact that the General American Accent is a rhotic accent , meaning we say our r sound s, no matter where they occur in the word. Today we are going to compare the r sound to the l sound . I find that students from Asia tend to have a lot of trouble with both of these sounds, and if your native language is Japanese, you probably already know the struggle with the r sound and l sound . Many of my Japanese students come to me and not only can't say the sounds, but also cannot hear the difference when a native speaker of English says them. There have been many studies that link the ability to hear sounds with the ability to say them. If you are one of those people who can't hear the difference between an l sound and r sound , go to pronuncian.com, find the sound you want to practice, and click "additional practice". Many troublesome sounds have minimal pairs for very specific practice. Minimal pairs are words like we practiced for the d sound / t sound show; they are two words that are identical except for one sound, like dime/time. English has a lot of minimal pairs between the l sound and r sound . Can you hear the difference between the following words: play, pray climb, crime arrive, alive If you can't, be sure to do some listening practice.

Also, speakers from a wide variety of backgrounds have trouble with the l sound when it occurs near the r sound . So, even if you aren't from Asia, you aren't free of l sound trouble. The reason these sounds conflict with each other is because of how they are produced inside our mouth. Remember, the r sound can have lots of formations at the tip of our tongue, the important thing is that it is the very back of the tongue, all the way in our throat, that is responsible for articulation in the General American Accent. ( r sound ). The l sound , however, happens way at the front of our mouth, with our tongue touching the tooth ridge in the same place we touch it for a t sound . ( l sound ). That requires a pretty large movement of our tongue to go quickly from an l sound to the r sound . I also want to say that the back of our tongue is low for the l sound , not high, like it is for the r sound . People from India tend to have another problem with their l sound s. Just like people from many languages of the Indian subcontinent retroflex their t sound and d sound , they do the same for the l sound . Retroflexing is placing the tip of the tongue too far back, behind the tooth ridge instead of at the front of it. Let's say some easier words with the l sound at the beginning before we combine it with the r sound . Repeat after me. laugh like let list Were those easy for you or hard for you?

If they were hard, please practice the l sound word list on pronuncian.com. Now let's practice some words that have both the l sound and r sound in them. Ready? girl world learn early really Let's say all of those again.

girl world learn early really I want to make you that you can clearly pronounce the words word w-o-r-d and world w-o-r-l-d.

I have a lot of students who cannot say these words clearly enough for a native speaker of English to hear the difference between. You need to make sure to add the l sound to the word "world". Let's say them both. Word, world. So, let me give you the practice sentence for today.

"I would really like a little red wagon like Laura's.

Again:

"I would really like a little red wagon like Laura's.

I have to say, this is my favorite practice sentence of all because it hits a number of sound issues, many of which we haven't even talked about yet.

We'll come back to this sentence in the future, so you might as well memorize it. "I would really like a little red wagon like Laura's.

There you go.

Hopefully you now better understand the r sound and l sound . But we aren't finished yet. As I said last week, another aspect of the r sound is r-controlled vowels. For people who learned Received Pronunciation, the British standard of English pronunciation, you will have some major habits to overcome if you are trying to learn an American accent, and many of those habits are elements of r-controlled vowels. I hope you are enjoying this podcast.

Today we are going to compare the r sound to the l sound . I find that students from Asia tend to have a lot of trouble with both of these sounds, and if your native language is Japanese, you probably already know the struggle with the r sound and l sound . Many of my Japanese students come to me and not only can’t say the sounds, but also cannot hear the difference when a native speaker of English says them. Japon öğrencilerimin çoğu bana geliyor ve sadece sesleri söyleyememekle kalmıyor, aynı zamanda anadili İngilizce olan biri bunları söylediğinde aradaki farkı da duyamıyor. There have been many studies that link the ability to hear sounds with the ability to say them. 音を聞く能力とそれらを言う能力を結びつける多くの研究がありました。 Sesleri duyma yeteneği ile onları söyleme yeteneği arasında bağlantı kuran birçok çalışma yapılmıştır.

Can you hear the difference between the following words: Aşağıdaki kelimeler arasındaki farkı duyabiliyor musunuz: play, pray climb, crime arrive, alive oyna, dua et, suç var, canlı If you can’t, be sure to do some listening practice. できない場合は、リスニングの練習をしてください。

Also, speakers from a wide variety of backgrounds have trouble with the l sound when it occurs near the r sound . また、さまざまな背景のスピーカーは、l音の近くでl音が発生すると問題が発生します。 So, even if you aren’t from Asia, you aren’t free of l sound trouble. ですから、アジア出身でなくても、音のトラブルはありません。 Yani, Asyalı olmasanız bile, sağlam bir beladan kurtulmuş sayılmazsınız. The reason these sounds conflict with each other is because of how they are produced inside our mouth. これらの音が互いに衝突する理由は、それらが私たちの口の中でどのように生成されるかによるものです。 Bu seslerin birbiriyle çelişmesinin nedeni, ağzımızda nasıl üretildiklerinden kaynaklanmaktadır. Remember, the r sound can have lots of formations at the tip of our tongue, the important thing is that it is the very back of the tongue, all the way in our throat, that is responsible for articulation in the General American Accent. ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||articulation||||| 覚えておいてください。rサウンドは、舌の先端に多くの形成がある可能性があります。重要なことは、一般的なアメリカのアクセントのアーティキュレーションの原因となっているのは、喉のずっと奥であるということです。 Unutmayın, r sesinin dilimizin ucunda pek çok oluşumu olabilir, önemli olan dilin en arka kısmıdır, ta boğazımıza kadar, Genel Amerikan Aksanındaki artikülasyondan sorumludur. ( r sound ). The l sound , however, happens way at the front of our mouth, with our tongue touching the tooth ridge in the same place we touch it for a t sound . ( l sound ). That requires a pretty large movement of our tongue to go quickly from an l sound to the r sound . I also want to say that the back of our tongue is low for the l sound , not high, like it is for the r sound . People from India tend to have another problem with their l sound s.

If they were hard, please practice the l sound word list on pronuncian.com. Eğer zorsa, lütfen pronuncian.com'daki l sesli kelime listesini uygulayın. Now let’s practice some words that have both the l sound and r sound in them. では、l音とr音の両方が含まれる単語を練習してみましょう。 Şimdi içinde hem l hem de r sesi olan bazı kelimeler üzerinde çalışalım. Ready? Hazır? girl world learn early really kız dünyası gerçekten erken öğreniyor Let’s say all of those again.

girl world learn early really ||learn|| I want to make you that you can clearly pronounce the words word w-o-r-d and world w-o-r-l-d. Kelime kelimesini ve dünya dünya kelimelerini net bir şekilde telaffuz etmenizi sağlamak istiyorum.

I have a lot of students who cannot say these words clearly enough for a native speaker of English to hear the difference between. 英語のネイティブスピーカーが違いを聞くのに十分なほど明確にこれらの単語を話すことができない多くの学生がいます。 Bu kelimeleri anadili İngilizce olan birinin aradaki farkı anlayabileceği kadar açık bir şekilde söyleyemeyen birçok öğrencim var. You need to make sure to add the l sound to the word "world". "Dünya" kelimesine l sesini eklediğinizden emin olmalısınız. Let’s say them both. İkisi de diyelim. Word, world. Sözcük Dünya. So, let me give you the practice sentence for today. O halde size bugünün pratik cümlesini vereyim.

"I would really like a little red wagon like Laura’s. "Laura'nınki gibi küçük kırmızı bir vagonu gerçekten çok isterim.

Again: Tekrar:

"I would really like a little red wagon like Laura’s. "Laura'nınki gibi küçük kırmızı bir vagonu gerçekten çok isterim.

I have to say, this is my favorite practice sentence of all because it hits a number of sound issues, many of which we haven’t even talked about yet. 私が言わなければならないのは、これは多くの音の問題にぶつかるので、私のお気に入りの練習文です。その多くはまだ話されていません。 Söylemeliyim ki, bu benim en sevdiğim alıştırma cümlesi çünkü çoğundan henüz bahsetmediğimiz bir dizi sağlam konuya değiniyor.

We’ll come back to this sentence in the future, so you might as well memorize it. 後でこの文に戻るので、覚えておくとよいでしょう。 İleride bu cümleye geri döneceğiz, bu yüzden onu ezberlesen iyi olur. "I would really like a little red wagon like Laura’s. "Laura'nınki gibi küçük kırmızı bir vagonu gerçekten çok isterim.

There you go. İşte gidiyorsun.

Hopefully you now better understand the r sound and l sound . Umarım şimdi r sesini ve l sesini daha iyi anlarsınız. But we aren’t finished yet. As I said last week, another aspect of the r sound is r-controlled vowels. 先週言ったように、rサウンドのもう1つの側面は、r制御母音です。 Geçen hafta söylediğim gibi, r sesinin bir başka yönü de r-kontrollü ünlülerdir. For people who learned Received Pronunciation, the British standard of English pronunciation, you will have some major habits to overcome if you are trying to learn an American accent, and many of those habits are elements of r-controlled vowels. イギリスの標準的な英語の発音であるレシーブドプロセッシングを学習した人は、アメリカのアクセントを習得しようとする場合、いくつかの大きな習慣を克服する必要があります。これらの習慣の多くは、r制御母音の要素です。 I hope you are enjoying this podcast.
