Күн бұрын

Did you know that the N /n/ consonant, like in the word "ten", can sometimes become the NG /ŋ/ consonant in spoken English...which means "ten" is sometimes pronounced as "teng"?
When does that happen...and why does that happen?? Well, this video will show you!
Learn how to smooth out your conversational English and connect words together using the nasal consonants M /m/, N /n/, and NG /ŋ/. And practice with me at the end!

I love linking . Thank you Miss. Julie. - is the letter /n/ in the word (and) changed to ng /ŋ/ ( and God ) ( /æŋɡɑd/) - is the letter d in Sandwich /ˈsænwɪtʃ/ , /ˈsændwɪtʃ/ silent. Have a good day.

@SanDiegoVoiceandAccent 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Ramzy - Thanks for your questions! 1) Yes, the /n/ can change to NG /ŋ/ in the phrase "and God", if you drop the /d/ from "and". It is possible! 2) "Sandwich" can be pronounced both ways: /ˈsænwɪtʃ/ without the /d/, or /ˈsændwɪtʃ/ with the /d/. It depends on the preferences of the speaker. Hope this helps!

@rafaelassad8774 2 жыл бұрын

Hey great vid, tks for doing it. I have a big fat question, listening native speaking I found out that a word ends in a nasal consonant sound and the next word begins with t sound, they change to d sound(e.g. seem to= seem do/ sing to me= sing do me). Is that correct or I'm misunderstanding that?

Hi Rafael - thanks for your question :) I think this would be a perfect question for my weekly, live group class called Julie's Conversation Club. I'd be happy to answer your question at the next meeting! courses.sandiegovoiceandaccent.com/courses/julies-conversation-club. Let me know if you have any questions - hope to see you there! :)

Julie, alternatively, using the International Phonetic Alphabet, you could have: in a house /ɪn ə haʊs/ changes to /ɪn°-°nə haʊs/ through linking, as /n/=/n°-°n/ becomes ambi-syllabic. Similarly, the time is now /ðə taɪm ɪz naʊ/ ------> /ðə taɪm°-°mɪz naʊ/ sing a song /sɪŋ ə sɒŋ/ ----> /sɪŋ°-°ŋə sɒŋ/

Hi Jacob - Thanks for your comment! Yes, this is another way to transcribe it, depending on how detailed you want to be with regards to the linking :) Nice!

The New Yorker's pronunciation of "sing a song" would make Venezuelans laugh because it sounds like the Venezuelan slang "singazón" which means an orgy.

That’s why when some people say “I don’t care” sometimes I hear “I dong care” is this correct?

@SanDiegoVoiceandAccent Жыл бұрын

Hi Steve, Thanks for your question. There are a couple of pronunciation assimilations that can happen in the phrase "I don't care", but yes, you might hear someone say "I don't care" in fast speech :) I hope this helps!
