Pronunciation Polish

Roza
▶︎ All right, guys. You know what. You deserve a great “Pronunciation Polish” corner.
Here we go!
Today’s sentence is …
・I received the “Employee of the Year” award.
・I received the “Employee of the Year” award.

Today we’ll be focusing on mainly one point,
and got the weakened “d” at the end of “received” and “award.”
So let’s practice. Repeat after me.
received the, received the, received the
year award, year award, year award
“Employer of the Year” award, “Employer of the Year” award

All right.
Are you ready to do the full sentence?
Here we go!
・I received the “Employee of the Year” award.
・I received the “Employee of the Year” award.

All right.
Now let’s go a little bit faster.
・I received the “Employee of the Year” award.

Feel the rhythm.
・I received the “Employee of the Year” award.

That was so good.
I’m so proud of you.

Ending

Roza
▶︎ That’s right. This corner is not supposed to be easy.
It’s supposed to be difficult. And rememember.
Even native speakers might not make the same exaxt paragraph
that we show as the answers.
So just keep going, and do your best.

David
▶︎ That’s right, everyone. What matters is that
you do your best, and keep trying. You’ll get better, I promise.

Onishi
▶︎ You receive “the Listener of the Year” award.

David
▶︎ They definitely deserve it!
