There is a common continent sound used in words about everyday life. But first we need to explore certain kinds of constant sounds. Thes sounds are made with the back of the tongue and the soft palate. The soft palate is the area toward the back of your mouth. To make thes sounds, you need to make sure the back of your tongue touches the back part of your mouth for just a moment. This causes an obstruction in the Airstream. Consider these two words gold keep. I produced thes sounds by raising the back of my tongue and blocking an area in the soft palate. Speakers of American English make three sounds this way. They are cut God and mm, you heard ca as in keep and got as in goal. But perhaps the most important and useful for you will be the sound many common verbs and now owns end in the I N. G. Spelling, which often matches the sound. Every time you talk about hobbies or daily activities, you will probably use the sound I like running. I am walking I love reading and listening to music. We enjoy talking and laughing the next time you practice speaking, pay careful attention to the go and sounds the sounds made with the back of your tongue and the soft palate. That's all for today.
