Pronunciation Polish

Today’s Sentence：Have lots of beer, wine, cheese, and good bread.

David
▶︎ All right, what’s the key to good pronunciation?
I say, practice, practice, practice.
So here’s today’s phrase.
・Have lots of beer, wine, cheese, and good bread.
・Have lots of beer, wine, cheese, and good bread.

Two main points today.
First off is “lots” plus “of.”
Let’s join those together, yeah.
lots of, lots of

All right.
Next is “lists.”
This sentence is one long list.
And we have a special pattern,
We use a rising intonation for each item ,
and then falling intonation for the last one.
So let’s try.
beer, wine, cheese, and good gread

All right.
Let’s try the whole phrase
・Have lots of beer, wine, cheese, and good bread.

All right.
Fantastic!

Ending

Onishi
