Descrizioni

This lesson is a part of a series of pronunciation drills.
 
Its main aim is to make you more familiar with the sounds in English and go through refresher drills.
 
Many languages have just 5 vowel sounds. But depending on geography, English though has anywhere between 12 and 20 or more vowel sounds including those that are two vowel sounds put together aka diphthongs. 
 
In this lesson, we will learn the more commonly used vowel sounds and do drills with them to enable us to have a better quality of pronunciation. We will also learn in which words or phrases we would normally find them.
