I like it very very much: the music, the photo examples, the humour. The eagle dragging off the hunter. I have subscribed to your channel. I wish you powerful imagination and creativity for your new and special 101 video. Please, make the theme: "Modification of the place of articulation and active organ of speech". Unfortunately I can`t show an English pronunciation to my students as you can do, as a native.

Thank you, they get better and better. The last one, in particular was a very nice one. Idioms, casually, may vary from simply being graspable to not so fully perceivable, as far as the Eyes could see.
How did I do?

Hi Blanco,
Thanks for stopping by. I'm glad you liked what you found. There are other great things besides Linguaspectrum that are free. Fresh air, sunshine, rain on your face, laughter and love, the night sky, a sunrise and a sunset, waves on the seashore...
Best wishes,
Richard

Hello, do u know if there is a website or place where i can translate an english text into a phonetic alphabet?
Thanks.
mariapyhugom 2 years ago
Hi. I don't think such a site exists. The phonetic transcription depends on the speaker's accent. Phonetic transcription is extremely difficult and skillful and takes years of practice to get it right. I don't think a machine is yet capable of doing it. Thousands of university students across the world probably wish it could be done, but the only way to do it is to learn how to do it yourself. Sorry.
