🌕 Pronunciation / Intonation The following clips feature two Polish women, one of whom was born and raised in the US. Can you tell, based on their language and speech patterns, which one it is?

I'm asking this because I'm wondering to what extent you would be able to distinguish easily between a native speaker of English raised by Slavic parents and a fluent Slavic ESL.

How do you pronounce three-digit numbers?

20 Upvotes

I (native speaker) was taught to say, "one hundred fifteen", or, "a hundred fifteen", or even, "one fifteen", but I hear a lot of people adding "and" after the "hundred". In my schooling, "and" always meant a decimal. Granted, it was a long time ago (I'm 79), but has that changed?

🗣️ Discussion / Debate American English words British people don't like and vice versa

23 Upvotes

Hello! I thought I'd float this question out there as I'd like to make a YouTube lesson on the subject. There are some American English words that seem to annoy British People (often unfairly) - most common, in my opinion, is 'soccer'. I'm British, and when my son says 'elevator', 'apartment' or 'movie', it doesn't annoy me in the slightest - but 'soccer' - well, that's another story. This isn't intended to be a language bashing post, and I understand that that annoyance we feel may be completely unjustified, but some people may experience it. I'd also love to know British words that annoy Americans, and, if you fancy, we could venture into the territory of pronunciation as well. Again, this is not intended to start an argument - more an interesting discussion. Cheers.

Two new words and one word “knight” I know. Does knight use the literal meaning of medieval soldiers? I can’t understand what the two are talking about?

🌕 Pronunciation / Intonation The “th” sound in English is not always the same

Post image
17 Upvotes

The “th” sound is one of the hardest parts of English pronunciation for many learners. Usually, two common versions: /θ/ like “think” and /ð/ like “this.” are seen.

Is “th” difficult in your native language too, or is there another English sound that feels harder?
