#361 English Pronunciation Practice: The V and B Sounds

from speakenglishpodcast · host Georgiana

This is the third episode in our pronunciation series. In the first episode, we practiced R and L. In the second one, we worked on the TH sound. And today, we'll practice the difference between V and B. These sounds can be very tricky, because in some languages there isn't much difference between them. But in English, they are very different. So today, we'll warm up with some minimal pairs, then practice with simple sentences, and finally we'll do a mini-story. Get the transcript here:
