Why at 0:30 you are pronouncing "Thank you" with a voiced TH?

[rachelsenglish]

@oidualclaudi0 I would not say I'm pronouncing a voiced TH, though I'm not really pronouncing an unvoiced TH either. The tongue isn't coming all the way through the teeth, but it is pressing between them slightly, makeing a subtle stop-like sound before the vowel. Thanks for your question!

Very good video, perfect to deal with life situations. By the way, why the final s in potatoes is pronounced as [s] and not as [z] if it is a plural and there is a vowel sound before the s?

[rachelsenglish]

@oidualclaudi0 Any plural where the sound before is voiced will have the Z pronunciation. So that would include any vowel or diphthong (I have a video on plurals!)
