How to pronounce words like "thin/fin," "mouth/mouse," and "both/boat." Perfect your English fricative sounds by never stopping the air from passing through your mouth. Transcripts at pronuncian.com
At the end of the word, the /ŋ/ doesn't need an additional /g/. The /g/ is potentially included mid-word. Transcripts available at pronuncian.com
"Coarticulating" the /g/ and /n/ is the trick to fluent pronunciation of these two sounds. Don't release the /g/ before starting the /n/. Transcripts available on Pronuncian.com
Test your ability to identify vowel sounds with this special listening quiz episode. Transcripts available on pronuncian.com.
The long e, short i, and short e /i, ɪ, ɛ/, are three front vowel sounds that can be practiced from a high, front tongue position to a mid-front position. Compare and contrast! Full podcast transcripts available at pronuncian.com.
All about that vowels diagram that shows the vowel sounds placed over a sort of square-like shape that’s bigger on the top than it is on the bottom. Transcripts at pronuncian.com.
Use a low pitch to signal a spoken aside (like information that would be written in parentheses or between commas). Transcripts available at pronuncian.com.
Understand the rising and falling pitch patterns for yes/no questions and learn how to read emotion. Transcripts on pronuncian.com. Classes available from seattlelearning.com.
What are you *really* asking? Using a rising or a falling pitch on a wh- question means something different than using a rising pitch. Transcripts available at pronuncian.com
Adding /ɚ/ (schwa+r) to an /r/ can be difficult. Make it into two syllables, but don't add a vowel sound between. Learn how here! By Seattle Learning Academy. Transcripts on pronuncian.com.
Words like 'hat' and 'hot' are important to distinguish. Full episode transcripts available at Pronuncian.com
Is it silent, pronounced as 'long u' or 'oo sound'? Full episode transcripts at www.pronuncian.com/podcast.
What's up with /ə/ and /ʌ/ in words like 'custom' /ˈkʌs təm/? Full episode transcripts at www.pronuncian.com/podcast.
Practice the difference between the or sound and the long o sound. Full episode transcripts at www.pronuncian.com/podcast.
Rhyming with 'shorter' and 'border,' this is a quirky word. Full episode transcripts at www.pronuncian.com/podcast.
Rhythm and linking from /d/. Full episode transcripts at www.pronuncian.com/podcast.
No English spelling could be more confusing. Full episode transcripts at www.pronuncian.com/podcast.
Informal contractions for fluency! Full episode transcripts at www.pronuncian.com/podcast.
Most recognize the /d/ in the pronunciation of 'little' but how about in 'out_of'? Full episode transcripts at www.pronuncian.com/podcast.

Eye opening podcast! I have been in several ESL classes both as a student and as a teacher, and even though I consider myself having a very advanced English pronounce I still get to learn new details to improve my pronunciation! Thank you.
