week the question today is how do i pronounce  the word chocolate which is a delicious treat  

and it is also our favorite pup and what is his  name chocolate he goes everywhere with us even  

to school even to school so to say this word  correctly we are going to think about saying  

two beats not three i hear people say cho-co-late  and we are not going to pronounce it that way  

we are going to say chalk lit so to say this word  correctly we're going to start with syllable one  

chalk to do this touch the tip of your tongue to  the back of your top front teeth for that ch sound  

that's two letters that equal one sound touch the  tip of your tongue and then pull it back into the  

middle of your mouth for that ch sound your lips  are slightly rounded move to the open oh with a  

wide open oval mouth tip of the tongue will be  low and the back of the tongue will be pulled up  

and then keep your mouth open for the k and your  tongue is still low in the mouth and the air is  

just going to puff out so again for the k tip of  the tongue is low back of the tongue is pulled up  

air just puffs out k chalk chalk next for syllable  number two lit touch the tip of your tongue to the  

back of your top front teeth for that l llll and  then move to the short ih sound to do this you are  

going to think about having your tongue high and  flat in your mouth but you are going to relax your  

lips it's not an e it's an ih so get your tongue  in the position for the e and then relax your lips

and you should be able to get in the right spot  for that short i sound and then end with the teeth  

by touching the tip of your tongue to the back of  your top front teeth chalk lit chalk lit chocolate
