  • 263 - 🔒 British English Pronunciation: Mispronouncing Numbers

    Subscriber-only episode

    Got a question/comment? Send it to me!

    E263: 🎙️ Welcome to another bonus episode of The English Like a Native Podcast, exclusively for Plus Members. In today's session, we're diving deep into the nuances of pronunciation, specifically focusing on numbers.

    🔢 In our last episode, we delved into expressions concerning age, and now it's time to tackle a common pronunciation hurdle: numbers in the tens and thousands. Let's start with the big one: "thousand." With its tricky combination of sounds, it's often mispronounced. From the initial "th" sound to the subtle "und" at the end, we'll break it down step by step to ensure clarity and precision.

    🗣 Moving on to the tens, such as "twenty," "thirty," and beyond, we'll address the tendency to drop certain consonants and vowels, emphasising the importance of maintaining clear articulation, even if native speakers sometimes relax these sounds. To practice, we'll do a guided repetition from twenty to fifty-five, focusing on each number's pronunciation and rhythm.

    Got a question/comment? Send it to me!

    E262:🎙️ Welcome to The English Like a Native Podcast, your go-to resource for intermediate to advanced-level English learners. I'm Anna, your host, and today we're delving into a topic that's both ubiquitous and often tiptoed around: age.

    🎂 Today, we explore the curious phenomenon of age—how we discuss it, avoid it, and sometimes even celebrate it. From societal norms to personal perspectives, we navigate the intriguing landscape of aging. Join me as we unpack common age-related phrases, from the empowering "life begins at 40" to the playful "you're only as old as you feel."

    👵🏽 So, whether you're in your roaring twenties or seasoned seventies, embrace the age you're at with pride and optimism. After all, as we'll discover, age is just a number—a mere footnote in the grand narrative of life.
