Pronunciation Polish

Roza
▶︎ All right, guys. Well, if you want to produce results with your English,
you have to practice your pronunciation.
Here we go!
Today’s sentence is …
・I wonder who built it.
・I wonder who built it.

We’ll focus on two points: linking and the / / sound in “who.”
Ready? Repeat after me.
built it, built it, built it
who built it, who built it

The “who” is very short and small making the / / sound.
who built it

Excellent.
Now let’s do the whole sentence.
・I wonder who built it.
・I wonder who built it.

Great work.
Keep on going!

▶︎ Exactly.
