Dear Students,
We are still becoming familiar with the consonant sounds in the English Language.  One of my favorite youtube channels is Rachel's English.   Here she explains the IPA alphabet and provides examples of the consonant sounds and words with each one of them.  It is important to pay attention to the spelling of the words and how different they are that represent a single sound.

Please answer the following questions in the comment section below:
1.  What consonants are the most difficult for you?  Why?

Regards,
Prof. Eva
