Two for Tuesday✌️Learn English HOMOPHONE Pronunciation
Transcript:
Hello Jennifer from Tarle speech. It’s two for Tuesday! That means a homophone lesson or two words that are pronounced exactly the same even though they are spelled differently and have different meanings.
Our words today are brewed which means to make beer tea or coffee or an unwelcome event that develops and
brood a family of young animals all the children in a family or to think deeply about something that makes you unhappy
To say these words correctly let’s start with that BR combination. So what we’re going to do is you’re going to put your lips together for that b and then you are going to move them to a square tense shape for that R. Tip of the tongue is down, back of the tongue is pulled high up. BR
Next move to that long ew by puckering. And then end with the D. Touch the tip of the tongue to that spot where the teeth meet the skin on the roof of the mouth for the d – d.
Let’s put it all together:
brood brewed brood
brood brewed brood
brood brewed brood
And now for a sentence:
The mom brewed her coffee before she woke up her brood.
The mom brewed her coffee before she woke up her brood.
Give it a try, people are going to notice the difference.
