Hi there jennifer from Tarle speech with your two for Tuesday! These are two words
that are homophones. These are words that are pronounced exactly the same way. Yes the words
are pronounced the same way. They are spelled differently and they have different meanings.
So our words today are guest a person who was
invited to an event and guessed an estimate.
Here are the words.
So to say these words correctly we're going to start with that g
sound. G. To make a g sound the tip of your tongue is way low in the bottom of your mouth. The back
of your tongue is pulled up. It can be touching the roof of your mouth in some cases. G G G
Next we're going to move to that short EH sound.
And to do this you're going to have an open mouth and the tip of your tongue
is just going to be peeking out between your top and your bottom teeth. EH EH EH
Next we're going to move to that s. sssss. Air is going to move out of the mouth. The tip of
your tongue can either be slightly pointed down or behind your top front teeth. It is not touching.
Then we are going to touch the teeth for that t. T.
Put it all together: G EH S T
guest guessed guest guessed
guest guessed guest guessed
And now for a sentence:
The guest guessed the surprise.
Give it a try I know people are going to notice the difference!
