The Silent B: What English Doesn’t Say

mercredi 29 avril 2026 • Durée 02:30

Why do we write letters we don’t pronounce? In this episode, we explore the silent “b” in words like lamb, thumb, comb, debt, doubt and subtle, and uncover the history behind it. By the end, you’ll see how English spelling reflects its past, and why pronunciation doesn’t always follow the rules.

British Vowel Sound Masterclass: Lesson 13 - 3 “O” Sounds: /ɒ/ vs /ɔː/ vs /əʊ/

lundi 20 avril 2026 • Durée 06:36

In this episode, we focus on three key British vowel sounds linked to the letter O that learners often confuse: /ɒ/ (as in octopus), /əʊ/ (as in go), and /ɔː/ (as in door).

You’ll learn how to clearly distinguish these sounds by focusing on mouth position, length, and movement—not just how they sound, but how they feel when you produce them.

We break down:

The difference between /ɒ/ and /ʌ/ (e.g. cot vs cut)
The contrast between /ɒ/ and /ɔː/ (e.g. cot vs caught)
How to correctly produce the diphthong /əʊ/ and avoid flattening it
Key distinctions between movement vs stillness and length vs glide

You’ll also practise with clear minimal pairs to build awareness and control.

By the end, you’ll have a simple framework:

/ɒ/ = short and open
/ɔː/ = long and rounded
/əʊ/ = moving from neutral to rounded

In the next episode, we’ll focus on practice to help you build consistency and accuracy.

British Vowel Sound Masterclass: Magic E Practice

mercredi 11 mars 2026 • Durée 04:40

In this episode, we focus on one of the most powerful spelling patterns in English: the Magic E. Adding a silent e at the end of a word can completely change the vowel sound—from short to long.

Through a series of minimal pairs like cap–cape, fin–fine, hop–hope, and cub–cube, you’ll practice hearing and producing the difference between short and long vowels. The goal is not just accuracy, but awareness—training your ear and mouth to clearly feel the contrast.

Listen and repeat, exaggerate the vowel length, and strengthen one of the core pronunciation patterns that appears everywhere in English.

Transcript:

a + consonant + e:

cap - cape, tap - tape, mat - mate, hat - hate, can – cane, pan – pane, man – mane, mad – made, fad – fade, dam – dame, Sam – same, rat – rate, fat – fate, wag – wage, plan – plane, tap – tape

i + consonant +e:

fin – fine, pin – pine, win – wine, kit – kite, bit – bite, rid – ride, hid – hide, dim – dime, Tim – time, pip – pipe, rip – ripe, sit – site

o + consonant + e:

Hop - hope, cop - cope, mop - mope, pop - pope, not - note, rob - robe, cod – code, nod – node, lob – lobe, con – cone, ton – tone, Jon – jone

u + consonant + e:

cub - cube, tub - tube, us - use, hug - huge, cut - cute, tun – tune, dun – dune

Practice sentence examples:

He fixed the tap with some tape.

Tim didn’t have time.

Don’t mope when you mop.

I would love a huge hug.

British Vowel Sound Masterclass: Lesson 11: The letter I: One Letter, Five Sounds

mercredi 4 février 2026 • Durée 04:50

In this episode of the British Vowel Sound Masterclass, we explore how a single letter — “I” — represents multiple vowel sounds in British English. You’ll review familiar sounds and discover a few new ones, including the long /iː/, short /ɪ/, the stressed “er” /ɜː/, the weak schwa /ə/, and key diphthongs such as /aɪ/ and /ɪə/.

This episode prepares you for the next practice-focused session, where you’ll train these sounds and build real confidence in your British accent.
