Pronunciation Polish

Roza
▶︎ OK, guys. Let’s take some time to practice our pronunciation.
Today’s sentence is …
・He takes his job very seriously.
・He takes his job very seriously.

Today we’ll be focusing on maily two parts.
And they are both right here.
takes his, takes his

You heard that linking between “takes” and “his.”
And also that causes the “h” to be weakened.
– takes his

Repeat after me.
takes his, takes his
takes his job, takes his job
he takes his job, he takes his job

All right. Let’s go for the full sentence.
・He takes his job very seriously.

Here is the rhythm.
・He takes his job very seriously.

You’re doing fantastic.

Ending

▶︎ Your handwriting is really messy.

David
▶︎ Roza, is that what you call “constralctive criticism”?

Roza
▶︎ NO! It’s just plain criticisim.
