words that are pronounced exactly the same are knot a tangled mass and not

which is stating a negative or no so here are our two words we have a silent

letter today we are not going to say the letter K so we are just going to

completely take that letter off and that's kind of a general rule when we

have a K at the beginning of the word we typically do not say it when it's

followed by the n letter so we say the N instead okay so to say these two words

correctly we're going to start with the n sound nnnn to do this tip of your

tongue is behind touching the back of the top front teeth and the air is going

to move out of your nose nnnn next we're going to open the mouth wide for the oh

sound if this is a difficult sound for you think about making an oval shaped

mouth and make it wide open oh and when you do that the tip of your tongue will

be low in your mouth and the back of your tongue will be pulled up oh and

then you're going to end with the T sound t to do this touch the tip of your

tongue to the back of your top front teeth let's put it all together knot not

knot not knot not and now in a sentence do not tie the shoes into a knot do not tie

the shoes into a knot I'm give it a try people are going to notice the
