Be understood. Understand others.
课程介绍
Do you find it difficult to understand English speakers?
Do you want others to be more easily understood?These classes covers PHONEMES.
PHONEMES are the smallest sounds in the English language. In English we have 44 PHONEMES.
Many English phonemes especially consonants don't exist in other languages. Some tricky phonemes for Japanese and Korean learners are:
- /l/ /r/
- th /θ/ /ð/
- /ə/ (the unstressed vowel)
- /f/ /v/
- all vowels i ɪ e æ ɜ ʌ ɑ u ʊ ɔ ɒ
- /w/
- adding an extra /ə/ to final consonant sounds
- Consonant clusters (two consonant that blend) e.g. /tr/ /bl/
- /g/ and /k/
