Hi I'm James welcome back to Black Tie English. Today's lesson is part 2 of my
three-part pronunciation series showing you how to pronounce the most common
spoken British English words. After you've seen this video you'll be 2/3 of
the way to pronouncing 75% of the words which come up in everyday British
conversations. All the words in today's video are listed in the description with
a time so if you want to practise and hear a particular word, just go to the
description and tap the time next to that particular word and you can
go directly to it in the video. If you haven't seen part 1, you can watch it now
by clicking the link up here, or you can find the link in the description below.
You can now also follow Black Tie English on Instagram, on Twitter and on
Facebook where I'll be posting extra English learning content just for you.
You can find the links in the description below. If you haven't
subscribed to Black Tie English here on YouTube, you can just tap the red button
below. If you like this video make sure you click the thumbs up. I'm going to
pronounce each word one after the other followed by an example sentence so you
can hear exactly how they're pronounced in British English, in a British accent.
What you have to do is listen as I say them and then practise the words that
you need to by repeating after me. Ok let's start from the top with the
first word in part 2. The first word is back back,
welcome back to part 2. Other other, I'm going to find some other books. Now you
may remember from part 1 that I talked about the final "r" sound in British
English. Can you remember what that rule is in British English? In connected
speech you only pronounce the final R in a word if the next word begins with a
vowel. For those of you looking at the phonetic alphabet here the brackets
around the symbol mean that it's only pronounced sometimes. Compare these two
sentences, one with the final R not pronounced and the second with the final
R pronounced: I'm going to find some other books. I'm going to find some other
activities. Think about the final R sound rule when you're watching the rest
of this video. Her, her, he's going to find her now. If you say her in casual
connected speech when you're not trying to emphasize the word,
it becomes weak so the H at the beginning of the word can disappear and
it can sound like 'er. This is called H dropping and you'll hear it in received
pronunciation in words like "he him her and his".
In other words in received
pronunciation, you won't hear it so hotel or hello
always keep the H at the beginning. You don't say 'otel or 'ello. So if I say
he's going to find her now in received pronunciation, in quick casual speech I
would say he's gonna find her now. So you'll notice that the her becomes 'er and
also going to becomes gonna. This is a colloquial way of saying no.
Nah nah, nah not today. It's just like yeah which
is an informal way of saying yes. Yep and nope are two other informal
ways of saying yes and no. His his, have you seen his phone. As I just explained
you'll get H dropping in this word too, so in quick connected speech the H can
disappear and it will sound like have you seen 'is phone. The same thing can
happen with this word, him him, we saw him yesterday. If you drop the H in connected
quick speech it sounds like we saw 'im yesterday. It's perfectly acceptable in
received pronunciation to drop the H in quick connected speech in the words "he
him his and her". Look look look before you cross the road only only there's
only one left five five it's nearly five o'clock something
something
did you hear something you might also hear this word with a P in the middle so
it sounds a bit more like something-something
it's quite common so don't be surprised if you hear that pronunciation way way
do you know the way to the nearest tube station there there there flat is in
Chelsea remember what I said about the final our rule in British English there
has a final R if it's followed by a vowel one other thing is that there this
word is pronounced the same as there the location word and is really pronounced
almost exactly the same as there the contraction the shorter form for they
are these these I found these books in the box when you're pronouncing these
remember to pronounce it with a long e sound and as at the end so it sounds
different to the singular this which has a short a and a sound at the end can you
tell the difference between these books and this book sort sort what sort of
music do you like ah ah we showed them some of our photos when you want to
emphasize this word you can change the pronunciation to our so it sounds like
the period of time seconds minutes hour so you might say a sentence like this
that's our car not yours actually actually it's actually quite
easy to pronounce actually can't can't I can't come today
can't is the contracted the shorter form of the word cannot so cannot get
shortened to can't this is a very common spoken contraction in writing it would
be a bit in a formal but in speech it's neither
informal or formal it's neutral you only really say the full form cannot when you
want to emphasize it or in a formal context one quite important thing to
remember is that sometimes speakers will miss out the final T of can't when
they're speaking quickly so you might hear someone say the sentence I can't
hear you now one question is how do you tell if
someone has said the negative or the positive because the only difference in
writing is the T well in the negative can't you always have a long are sound
with or without the T whereas with the positive can you always have a short ah
sound so in quick or slowed down speech a speaker will always make sure they
keep the R sound for the negative can't or con and the short ah sound for the
positive can much much how much is it for four it's four pounds
fifty remember that four also has the final our sound if it's followed by a
vowel so you would pronounce it in a sentence like I need four eggs bit-bit
it's only going to take a bit longer off off remember to turn the lights off
should-should
you should read this book good no good now I'm gonna be late
this is a contraction of going to which becomes Gunnar but only in the future
tense so you don't say I'm gonna the shops in that situation you have to say
I'm going to the shops in spoken British English it's now so common that it's not
really slang it's said by most people in most informal contexts it's not
appropriate for formal writing so if you're writing an email or a formal
letter then used a full form going to take take can you take this letter to
the post office for me Thing Thing
I can't find that thing those those I like those paintings remember that those
is the plural of that so I like that painting why why I don't know why that
happened over over the match is over lot lot there were a lot of people there
okay okay okay let me see this word into you can pronounce in two different ways
if you say in two before a consonant then it's pronounced inter inter he fell
into the swing pool if you say the word before a vowel then it's pronounced in
two because it makes the second valve easier to pronounce into he fell into a
swimming pool quite quite it was quite easy
hundred hundred you need a hundred grams of sugar if you'd like to learn how to
pronounce numbers in British English then check out this video up here this
word can also be pronounced in two different ways if you're using it to
express a repeated or habitual action then it's pronounced used used we used
to see each other everyday if you want to use it as the past participle of the
verb use or the simple past then it's you
used he used a pen to write his name work work I cycle to work this word can
often be difficult for English learners to pronounce because the OU are in the
middle makes you think it could be pronounced all like born or corn in fact
it's pronounced so it rhymes so it sounds the same as perc or girl remember
it's not walk because that's something you do with your legs when you pronounce
us in connected speech and it's weak so it's not emphasized it's pronounced with
a schwa sound so you say this us she gave us a present if you want to
emphasize it and it's in a strong or stressed form it's pronounced us us is
that for us make make let's make some food first first he was there first
doing doing what are you doing today done done
it's all done 2020 the shop is open 24 hours went went we went there last year
this is another function word which has a strong pronunciation and a weak
pronunciation if it's not stressed so it's week then it's pronounced then then
he's taller than his sister if it's stressed so you're using this strong
form then it's pronounced van van it's easier than you think thought thought I
thought you were on holiday this is one of those words in English with the ough
letter combination and they can be quite difficult to pronounce there are around
ten different ways of pronouncing oh ugh in English I'm going to make another
video on the ough pronunciation so watch out for that when it's released
little-little he was only a little boy need need do
you need any help six six it took us about six hours again again
could you say that again you might hear some speakers of English pronounce again
again so don't be surprised if you hear that pronunciation give give
will you give me a hand lost lost it happened last night
no no no not now might might he might be asleep yeah yeah I've been learning
Italian for a year in peril italiano that or none no let let let me know how
long you've been learning English in the comments below
alright alright are you alright this is a very common casual British
greeting and you can use it both as a question but also as an answer so you
could say alright and that means how are you but you can also reply all right and
that means I'm okay I'm good I'm fine through through
I walked through the forest this is another oh ugh
words in English and I'll be explaining this in my video on the oh ugh letter
combination before before come over before we leave course course I'd like
to take an art course still still it's still working day day what day is it
today says says he says hello says can sometimes be very confusing because the
infinitive say is pronounced with the a sound whereas the he/she/it form of the
verb says is pronounced with the F sound so it can be a difficult one for English
learners to pronounce but now you know how to pronounce it ah is a small word
but it can be used in a few different contexts with different meanings it can
be used to express surprise ah I see it can be used to express satisfaction or
happiness ah amazing it can be used for admiration ah well done but it can also
be used to disagree with someone I don't think you're right years years I went to
Paris a few years ago never never I never knew that tell
tell what country are you from tell me in the comments below point point you
can point at people with your finger
same-same there is pronounced the same as their being being I like being with
my friends another another have you got time for another cup of coffee after
after let's leave after lunch round round the earth is
round
many many how many languages do you speak I speak English French German and
a bit of Italian money money it costs a lot of money new new this is my new
video anything anything do you want anything
anything and something are similar words but if you want to use something in a
question or in a negative it becomes anything do you want anything no I don't
want anything weak week see you next week - - you should
come - next next what's next ten ten
let's leave in ten minutes nice nice
he seems like a nice guy always always the weather isn't always so great in
London in fact it's pouring down with rain right now as I film this video
thank thank I wanted to thank you for my birthday presents so you can pronounce
this word in a couple of ways depending on whether it's stressed or weak if it's
stressed for instance in a question or if you want to emphasize the word
it's pronounced must must there must be a problem if it's week then it's
pronounced must must with a schwa sound there must have been a problem
long long the journey was quite long
half-half we'll see you in half an hour 8 8 8 is a lucky number in a lot of
cultures is 8 a lucky number in one of your cultures probably probably you're
probably right sometimes this word can be pronounced a
bit more quickly so in casual speech you might hear someone say something like
yeah probably saying saying did you hear what he was saying
even even it's even easier than that pounds pounds it costs five pounds nine
nine I start work every day at nine mr. mr. mr. Jones called and left a message
seven seven I finished work at about 7:00 p.m. also also I'd also like to
learn Spanish big big that makes a big difference
use use this phone is easy to use won't what he won't be here later won't is the
contracted to the shortened form of will not so in connected speech will not
becomes won't it's just like can't so it's a very common contraction you'll
hear it a lot in formal contexts and in informal contexts so it's really a
neutral contraction in written English it's an informal contraction so if
you're writing a business email or a business letter and you need to be
formal then write the full form will not in speech if you want to emphasize the
word then use will not rather than won't away away the beach is only a mile away
