American English pronunciation is difficult! Sometimes you pronounce every vowel that you see in the spelling, and sometimes you don't! This video will show you how to pronounce 8 common words in English that all have dropped vowels from their pronunciation (this is called Vowel Syncope). You'll see the pronunciation up close and in slow motion!
Learn how native speakers actually pronounce these words, and you'll sound more fluent and natural!
