English Pronunciation | The Letter P | Glottal P and PH Sounds

👉 In this English Pronunciation lesson I will teach you how to pronounce the letter P perfectly and also what sound the letters PH, PT and PS normally make when spoken in English. We will also learn a little about the Glottal P in English. Finally we will also practice the letter P with some really fun Practice Sentences which will help you to speak English quickly, fluently and easily! 👉 After that we will learn about the SILENT P in English, in advanced words like Pterodactyl or Psychology. 👉 At the end we will look at some SUPER FUN ’P’ Tongue Twisters and do a short English TEST! 👉 The Letter P is a plosive sound and is unvoiced which means the sound is made by pushing air out of the mouth. 👉 This lesson has CHAPTERS so you can SKIP to the part you need to learn most. 🤩👉 *Glottal P is made when we close the glottis (back of the throat) to stop a sound being made (in this case a P). Many languages use Glottal Stops even more than English does (Arabic for example). If you see a word that ends in P and the next work also begins with consonant that has a similar mouth position, this often means in English that we will use a glottal P. For example in the sentence, “You can’t stop me“ the ’p’ in stop would be a glottal P because the m in “me“ has a similar mouth position. 🤩 I hope you find this lesson helpful!
