transmission and that means an act of passing a disease or something from one

person to another here is our word for today so to say

this word correctly we have three syllables we're gonna start with trans

and to say this we're gonna start with that tr tr tr sound this is really

difficult for a lot of my students so here's my tip for you get your lips in

that square tense shape that you would use for the R sound and when your lips

are ready you're going to touch the back of your top front teeth for that T sound

and then either flip your tongue back or point it down whichever works for you

for the R sound tr tr next we're going to open wide for that sound tongue

is low in the mouth the tip of the tongue and the back is pulled up and

then touch the tip of the tongue to the back of the top front teeth for that n

air moves out of your nose Tran and then quickly pull the tongue down can

either point down or be just behind the top front teeth that air is going to

move out of the mouth continuously for that Z sound and the voice box is on and

moving trans trans next we're going to move to the mi syllable and to do this

lips are closed air is coming out of the nose mmm and they're going to move to

the ih you're going to open your mouth lips are going to be relaxed tip of the

tongue is going to be just right behind the top front teeth all right it's that

bottom part right there ih ih and then we're gonna end with shun to do

this you are going to pucker your lips for the sh your tongue is not touching your

teeth at all now move to that quick vowel relaxed lips relaxed tongue and

then touch the tip of your tongue to the back

of your top front teeth for that nnn air comes out of your nose let's put it

all together tranz mi shun transmit shun transmission transmission
