p is not unvoiced…..
I have been learning how to pronounce the /p/, /b/, and /m/ sounds for 4 months, but up to now I haven’t gotten them right. So please help me. Thank you!
🤍
All Varieties of English use plosive bilabials. Why are you using the label, the sounds of American English? Insecure I think, because most people prefer British English.
thank you
Thanks 🙏

"Greetings, Rachel. One of the important things I have noticed is that the American 'B' sound sounds slightly different than in other languages, like my mother tongue, Persian, to me because it's a little bit nasal; I mean, the air is held a little bit in the nose before it's released. I noticed that while I was shadowing Wentworth Miller, the actor who played the role of Michael in 'Prison Break,' during one of his interviews in Korea. Do you confirm that? I can share the link if you want, too."
it's very hard , try to but not get right
My language has various P, T, K voiceless variations but doesn't have B, D, G with voice. So Vocal cord vibration timing of B,D,G is super difficult. Apps like Chat GPT mostly can't recognize my B,D,G sound. Do you have any lesson or plan for this?
Very good video 🎉🎉🎉❤
There are American adults who cannot pronounce certain letters like 'P' or have significant lisps. I would have thought this would have been caught and corrected in elementary school. I remember having to attend sessions with my school's speech pathologist at a young age in the first or second grade. She would see us in groups of three to make sure we did not have any impediments. There really is no excuse for these problems to continue into adulthood. I am not blaming the sufferer, I'm blaming the school system that allowed these problems to continue.
I found this very useful rule to pronounce y that is NOT at the beginning of a syllable

ở phút 1:54 dịch sang tiếng việt sai rồi: không phải là nguyên âm mà là phụ âm
Thanks 😊
Hey Mrs Charlie🖑 I have question some times I feel the P in some words it is voiced with air coming through too, is that right pronunciation or not?!
Great , finally after 20 years I found how to say it correctly
👍
💚💚
Dear Coach. Could you please help with the followings. is it right?
1st case: /b/ pronounced in 2 steps
step 1: press lips together, vocal cord aspirated, hold the air)
step 2: lips part and release the LIGHT air force
Ex: band, buy, bird
this applies to all cases except for 2nd case below
2nd case: /b/ pronounced only in step 1, no air released. This applies to
– /b/ pronounced at end of word ( stand by itself, no connection with another words)
Ex: crab, club,
– the next (after /b/) is consonants (except for /l/) in same word or connection with another word
Ex: absorb, subscribe, submit, submarine
but next is /l/==>/b/ pronounced in 2 steps in 1st case
Ex: table, incredible, babble
Is it right? Thank you so much.
Just wanted to mention that the p sound in "pot" and "spot" sound quite different for me. The way you pronounce p in "spot" is much softer than a p that's in the beginning of a word.
It's actually almost voiced (if that's a thing).
Wow you have captions for Vietnameses too. Big Love from Vietnam 🇻🇳<3
I always try to leave some 'love' on the videos I use for my classes…and this is no different! Thanks again!

Thanks, Rachel!
What is the difference between S and C Consonants ? , please
Are you a native speaker?
Is B a stop B in words such as “obvious”, “subdue” since it's at the end of a syllable in a word? How about "public" ? Is B voiced as there's BL cluster?
You'r amazing thank you ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I realy love you ❤
