Episode 39, Intermediate English: The vowels of an American accent - Hear the difference! Comparar la pronunciación de ti con la de nosotros
Is American pronunciation confusing to you? Why do words get pronounced like that??Would you like to sound more native when you speak English?In this episode, Gabo and Goyo demonstrate how vowels in English are often pronounced in a combination, despite a simple spelling. Words like "go," "program," and "milk" are often pronounced with an extra vowel sound that is difficult to detect based on spelling alone.They narrate various sentences and perform dialogs to illustrate what to listen for, all done with a light-hearted tone that will have you smiling while improving.
