In this video you will learn how to pronounce the /æ/ sound in British English. I also also compare the /æ/ and /e/ sounds, so you will learn the difference between words like “mat” and “met”, “bad” and “bet”, etc. We’ll look at the sound in isolation, then in words, and then in sentences.

I do not believe there is one “correct” accent or manner of pronunciation and I fully encourage EFL/ESL learners to expose themselves to as many varieties of English around the world to become accustomed to the beautiful variations of this world language. I focus mostly on teaching “Modern RP” (I may just say “RP” in my older videos, but to clarify, I do specifically mean “Modern RP”), however, you will hear a lovely little Yorkshire twang to my accent from time to time too.

Bravissima!! 👏👏 Thank you
Does ant and aunt sound similar?
Hi Emma, I happened to find a word that sound /æ/ in an unstressed syllable – habitat /ˈhæbətæt/ (the third syllable)
I hear the difference but can't produce this æ sound
Love you teacher
æ vs e
Great video, Emma!
It sounds quite similar with the Letter A in Indonesian lang..
Encyclopædia and other words throw a wrench in pronounciating it. It seems more complex then a short A sound.
I know 1 – Japan
So æther is not pronounced "e-thur" or "a-thur?"
good girl
This video is very amazing!!!❤❤❤😊😊😊
❤
racism to South Africans lol
British English just sounds so classy and polished. Hhahaha
Emma do you teach online courses? I want to attend live course if so.
thx
It's clear distinction between æ and e, but I hear no difference between æ and ʌ. I mean, I can hear the difference, when they are compared, but I can't pronounce it keeping that difference.
Thank you
it's like plan and plant 🤣🤣

Love and thanks
