Pronunciation with Emma Podcast

About

In this English pronunciation lesson, we look more into connected speech and how the sounds /w/ and /j/ (y) are used to link vowels together.

Learning about intrusive sounds in connected speech will help you improve your English pronunciation and rhythm, as well as understand fast speech and native English speakers much more easily.
