today please which is a polite word to ask  for permission and police which is the force  

um that is responsible for keeping peace so to say  these words correctly we are going to say please  

with one syllable and police with two syllables so  how do we do this let's start with the word police  

to do this we're going to start with and to do  that lips are closed and then you're going to  

open why you say that short uh sound pa pa

then we're going to move to syllable number two  the lease and to do this you're going to touch the  

tip of your tongue to the back of your top front  teeth hold it there for the l smile for that long  

e tongue is nice and high and flat in your mouth  and then we're going to end with the s sound  

to do this tip of your tongue is either  pointed down or behind the top front teeth  

it's not touching the teeth and your voice box  is off and it is not moving puh lease police  

police police for the word please little  different one syllable so we're not going  

to have that uh sound between the puh and  the l so to do this what you're going to do  

is you're going to keep your lips together for  that pee ppp and then as you open them you're  

going to quickly put your tongue on the back  of your top front teeth for that l ll ll if  

it helps you you can actually have your tongue  in the spot for the l i have it ready behind  

the top front teeth touching and then  close the mouth for the pee pl pl pl  

it's a little bit harder but you can do  it with a little bit of practice so again  

tongue is ready for that l lips are  together and then as you open your mouth  

you can say that l sound without having that uh  in between pl then again add that long e and then  

this time we're ending with the z z to do this  tip of the tongue is either pointed down or behind  

the top front teeth that is not touching voice  box is on and moving when we have this voiced  

z sound at the end of the word as opposed to  the s that is unvoiced that e is going to sound  

a little bit longer in this case so let's  give this word a try please please please

police police police please police  please police and now for a sentence  

the police asked the people to please form  a line the police asked the people to please  

form a line and before i tell you to give it a try  i do want to make one comment that sometimes you  

will hear people over pronouncing the word please  to make a point and they will say paw please  

please give me a like and a share so you will  hear that but typically people will make this word  

with only one syllable please and police with two  syllables so again give it a try people are going
