Learn the /ɪ/ sound in British pronunciation and stop confusing words like ship and sheep. In this lesson, you’ll discover how this short vowel sound works in Modern Received Pronunciation (British accent), why English learners struggle with it, and how small pronunciation mistakes can completely change meaning. You’ll learn correct mouth, tongue, and lip positions, hear real British examples, and practise minimal pairs and sentences to sound more natural and confident. This video is perfect for English learners who want to improve British pronunciation, listening clarity, and spoken confidence, even if you’re not fluent yet.
