It\u2019s \u2018Think\u2019.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent12\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">da-DA-da-da-da. I\u2019ll think about it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"STtranscriptContent13\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Make sure it\u2019s longer<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent14\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">than your other syllables.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent15\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Also, make sure every syllable connects.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent16\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think about it. UH.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent17\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">It\u2019s four different words,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent18\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">but there\u2019s no punctuation separating them,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent19\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">so we want them to link together smoothly.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent20\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think about it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"STtranscriptContent21\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">First, we start with the contraction I\u2019ll.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent22\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">In casual conversation,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent23\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">this will probably be reduced to UHl, uhl.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent24\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Sounding a lot like \u201call\u201d.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent25\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think about it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"STtranscriptContent26\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Actually, when I say it quickly<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent27\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">in that sentence,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent28\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think about it. I\u2019ll think about it.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent29\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019m really just making one sound,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent30\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">and it\u2019s the dark sound of the dark L.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent31\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">L, l, l (make it).<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent32\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">My tongue tip is here,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent33\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">touching the back of the bottom front teeth,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent34\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">and the back part<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent35\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">is pulling back a little bit.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent36\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">L, l, l.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent37\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">That\u2019s the dark sound.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent38\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think, I\u2019ll think.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"STtranscriptContent39\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">So I\u2019m not bringing my tongue tip up<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent40\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">into the position of the L,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent41\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019m just making the dark sound.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent42\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think, I\u2019ll think. I\u2019ll think about it.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent43\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Then I have the stressed word, think.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent44\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">It begins with an unvoiced TH a tough sound,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent45\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">but you do have to make it.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent46\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">So your tongue and jaw will come up enough<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent47\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">so your tongue tip can be lightly touching<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent48\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">both the bottom and top teeth.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent49\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">The tip will come out just a little bit.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent50\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">And you\u2019ll see it.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent51\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">The tip doesn\u2019t actually have to move much<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent52\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">to get into that position,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent53\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll TH\u2026<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent54\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">just has to lift a little bit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"STtranscriptContent55\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Next we have the IH as in SIT vowel<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent56\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">followed by the NG consonant.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent57\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I tend to make the IH more of an EE sound<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent58\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">when it\u2019s followed by the NG consonant.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent59\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Think, E, E, E, E.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent60\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">It\u2019s sort of a mix between EE and IH.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent61\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">My tongue tip does go back down,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent62\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">from the \u2018TH\u2019 so it\u2019s here again<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent63\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">touching at the back<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent64\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">of the bottom front teeth.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent65\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">But the front part of the tongue<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent66\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">stays pretty close to the roof of the mouth.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent67\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll TH, IH, ih, ih, ih, ih, ih.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent68\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Then the middle-back part of the tongue<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent69\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">goes to the soft palate,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent70\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">which is lowered to make the NG.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent71\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll thi, NG, ng, touching about here.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent72\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">It\u2019s now in position for the K sound.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent73\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">The only change that happens<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent74\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">is that your soft palate raises, it closes.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent75\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent76\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">This is probably something that will happen<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent77\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">on its own the movement of the soft palate<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent78\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">and you don\u2019t need to worry about it.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent79\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">To feel that, make an NG sound,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent80\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">and then get ready to make the K,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent81\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">but don\u2019t release it.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent82\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">NG, ng.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent83\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Did you feel anything move<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent84\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">or tighten in your throat?<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent85\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">That\u2019s the soft palate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"STtranscriptContent86\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Next we lightly release the K, NGk.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent87\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">But we want to do it<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent88\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">right into the next word,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent89\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">which begins with a vowel, to connect.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent90\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">So we don\u2019t want:<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent91\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think\u2026 about it, I\u2019ll think\u2026 about it,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent92\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">with a separate release, but rather<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent93\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think about it, I\u2019ll think, K, k,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent94\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">releasing the K right into the next sound.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent95\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">In this case it\u2019s the schwa.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent96\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">So for the schwa we want no jaw drop,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent97\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">we going to make it as quickly as possible.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent98\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Think about, think about, very short.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent99\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think about.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent100\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Now the lips come together for the B.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent101\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think ab-, b, b, I\u2019ll think about.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent102\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">And we have the OW as in NOW diphthong.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent103\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">It\u2019s not stressed,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent104\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">so we don\u2019t need too much jaw drop.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent105\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think about, -bout, -bout.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent106\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">The lips will probably round a little,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent107\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">but not too much<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent108\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">because again it\u2019s unstressed<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent109\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">and we want to move on<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent110\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">to the next sound as quickly as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"STtranscriptContent111\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">The next sound is the Flap T,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent112\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">so the tongue will just bounce<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent113\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">against the roof of the mouth<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent114\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">without stopping the flow of air.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent115\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">This will help us link to the next word, \u2018it\u2019.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent116\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">You don\u2019t need to think<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent117\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">about making the IH really,<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent118\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">it will happen quickly when you bring<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent119\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">your tongue down from the Flap.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent120\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">You actually want to just think about<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent121\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">bringing it right back up for the T in \u2018it\u2019.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent122\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Think about it, think about it.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent123\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Think -about it.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent124\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I\u2019ll think about it.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent125\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Do you notice that I don&#8217;t<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent126\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">release the T in it, it, it?<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent127\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">I just cut off the airflow<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent128\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">in my throat to make that Stop.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent129\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Think about it, think about it.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent130\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">It makes the word \u2018it\u2019 abrupt: -it, -it.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent131\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">About it. I\u2019ll think about it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"STtranscriptContent132\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">And now let\u2019s look at the phrase<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent133\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">up close and in slow motion.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent134\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"STtranscriptContent135\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">This video is part of a series.<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent136\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Click here to see other videos just like it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"STtranscriptContent137\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">That&#8217;s it, and thanks so much for using<\/span> <span id=\"STtranscriptContent138\" class=\"STtranscriptContent\">Rachel&#8217;s English.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a name=\"video\"><\/a><strong>Video:<\/strong><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 640px;\" class=\"wp-video\"><!--[if lt IE 9]><script>document.createElement('video');<\/script><![endif]-->\n<video class=\"wp-video-shortcode\" id=\"video-173768-1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/07f1c47b71c75472a3cc-b7eea9689205a6672fd1aa00be922d89.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com\/295.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/07f1c47b71c75472a3cc-b7eea9689205a6672fd1aa00be922d89.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com\/295.mp4\">https:\/\/07f1c47b71c75472a3cc-b7eea9689205a6672fd1aa00be922d89.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com\/295.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you can&#8217;t give an answer yet, just say you&#8217;ll think about it.
