Pronunciation Polish

David
▶︎ All right, everyone. It’s time for today’s “Pronunciation Polish.”
First, let’s try a little challenge. OK?
Listen to this sound, /ə/, /ə/, /ə/.
When you listen to today’s phrase, how many times will you hear it?
That is your challenge.
Here we go!
・Our flight leaving for London boards soon.
・Our flight leaving for London boards soon.

Umm… How many times?
If you guessed “two,” then you’re correct.
Let’s focus on those two words.
“Our” becomes ‘our’.
our flight, our flight

Next is for.
‘for,’ ‘for’
for London, for London

All right.
We got one more point to focus on today.
And that’s joining “boards” and “soon.”
boards – soon, boards – soon

All right.
Now let’s construct our sentence.
our flight
for London
boards soon

・Our flight leaving for London boards soon.
・Our flight leaving for London boards soon.

All right.
Let’s go one time. Full speed.
・Our flight leaving for London boards soon.

All right.
It’s a nice challenge.
I hope you did well. Keep it up.
And we’ll see you next time.

Ending

Roza
▶︎ OK, guys. So I know when speaking English, it might feel like you’re not ready,
and then you’re still not ready when you’re still not ready.
Don’t worry about that feeling.
Just use the English phrases that you know and that you practice.
Don’t worry about perfection.
Like we say, using it, saying it aloud is the most important part.

Onishi
▶︎ Oh, good, Roza.
I’m more than ready.
