are herd which is a group and heard the past or past participle of to hear so to

say these two words correctly we're going to think about three sounds we're

going to start with the H sound to do this open your mouth and just breathe

out super simple sound your tongue really isn't touching anywhere next move

to that er sound and to do this the tip of your tongue is either going to be

pointed down to the bottom of your mouth with the back of your tongue pulled up

or the tip of the tongue is going to be flipped back er you can think about

having your lips and a square tense shape

just a tip here having your lips ready for that sound you might actually get

them ready at the beginning for this H you can see my lips are square and

they're getting ready for that er hhhher and then I'm going to end with the D and to

do that touch the tip of your tongue to the back of your top front teeth and

the air is going to puff out if you don't hear that air puffing out all of

the time with some native speakers it's because they are just holding that D by

keeping the tip of their tongue behind their top teeth and it would sound like

this heard heard heard if I'm letting the air

puff out it will sound like heard heard heard so one I'm holding the tongue

heard heard heard and what I'm letting the tongue come down heard heard heard

and now in a sentence I heard the herd of cattle give it a try
