Hello Chris! It's an amazing and very useful video! I love the glottal stop and the British accent! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤

I really appreciate your British accent... it is clear and sooo normal. I'm more used to American, so I'm even more surprised how nice it sounds to my ear. It's such a relief knowing British speak also this way... I mean without such heavy accent, which makes me so confused😅

For Malay people, accents are not problems. We can master them less than 5 minutes without explanation. Just listen properly. ☺

Shadowing is practised by babies and toddlers in aquiring their native language. By doing so, they learn pronunciation, stress patterns, tunes, intonation patterns and also face mimic/facial expressions. Parents and surrounding environments are the main models for this "shadowing" activities. Because of them, various accents and dialects in a country appear. That is the power of shadowing in learning a language.

Thumbs up! Thank you for an interesting lesson. Pronunciation is an essential and indispensable part of English. I have a question to you. How to learn to speak English in an environment where English is not spoken at all in public? I like how you pronounced the "water" and waiting" with a glottal sound. I appreciate that! Cheers!

[The_Pre]

Hope you'll consider it!

[hichamchemaly]

Very useful. More of "what do you call this in English", if possible. Thank you!

Not all medial /t/'s can be pronounced like /d/ in General American. Take "attack" and "retain". We still hear the "t"s there in each word. So, only medial /t/'s in unstressed syllables can be pronounced like /d/ or replaced by a glottal stop. If the "t" is located in a stressed syllable, however, the British people and the American people maintain the "t" in pronunciation.
