hi everyone Jennifer from tarle speech with your pronunciation question today's
question is a very long one how do I pronounce the word live which is where
you make your home live not dead leave go away believe in belief which are an
acceptance of something as true so let's go ahead and take a look at our words
all right so let's start today with the beginning and the ending of the first
three words because you can see also we're going to have that same pattern
here for the last two words so let's start with the L touch the tip of your
tongue to the back of your top front teeth oh it is okay if your tongue
touches between your teeth L that's fine just touch the Teeth the V sound this
last sound here and the f sound what you're going to do is you are gently
going to bite the inside or the outside of your bottom lip and the air is going
to keep moving out of your mouth the difference is for the V sound your voice
box is on vibrating and moving be sure you do not put your lips together
because then you'll sound like a BA and be sure to not round your lips into a
pucker whoo because it'll sound like a W okay so lips are slightly pulled back
gently biting inside or outside of the bottom lip air moves out voice boxes on
alright so now for the vowels let's start with this short ih sound your mouth
is going to be somewhat relaxed and your tongue is going to be just below your
top front teeth ih ih ih nice and short let's put that all together live live
live now for live we're going to open your mouth really wide I and then smile
live and your tongue is going to move from
low in the mouth too flat and high live and then for leave smiling vowel I love
this one just smile tongue is high and flat in the mouth let's try those three
words live live leave now all we need to do down here is we're going to add B and
do that lips are together and then they open up and then smile be your voice box
is on and moving you are correct and then we're gonna put this together B
leave believe believe you can hear when I did say this quickly I did use the
schwa sound so you can say I believe that or I believe both are fine it kind
of depends on if you are stressing that word in a sentence or not amen
and then belief we are just going to turn off the voice for that F belief
belief belief again you can say that is my belief or that is my belief both are
acceptable let's give those all a try live live leave believe belief you don't
have a sentence for you so your job is to write one in the comments below if
