How to pronounce 50 food & drink words in English

Hi everyone! It’s day 2 of our pronunciation power-up mini-course, and today we’ll be practicing 50 words for food and drink.

Remember - in order to get the most benefit out of these lessons, you need to actually SAY the words yourself. Don’t just watch... speak!

Actually, if you want to challenge yourself even more, try listening and repeating with your eyes closed.

Why?

Because sometimes it’s actually better for you to use ONLY your ears, and NOT your eyes. In English, the way a word is written often doesn’t seem to match the way it’s pronounced.

So seeing the word can sometimes lead you in the wrong direction, because you think or assume it’s pronounced one way, but in fact it sounds different.

OK? So maybe try this video once with your eyes open, and then once with your eyes closed.

One final thing I want to remind you is that practicing your pronunciation is like doing exercise at the gym – you don’t go to the gym once or twice and then suddenly you have a perfect body!

Instead you need to exercise consistently, do some training every day.

It’s the same way with pronunciation, because you’re re-training your mouth and lips and tongue to change the habits you have from your native language and pronounce words in English. This re-training takes time and consistent practice.

I can help you practice more inside my American English Pronunciation Course, and when you join, there’s no time limit on your access. It doesn’t expire. So you can keep using the videos to practice over and over, for as long as you want.
