English Pronunciation (https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=orWL34vG3tY)<\/a><\/noscript><\/div><\/p>\n<p><h2>Video Transcript:<\/h2><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">In this American English pronunciation video, we&#8217;re going to go over how to greet Americans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">As some of you know, last time I was here in LA, at the YouTube Space, I made a video on introducing yourself to people. At the time, I didn&#8217;t know anybody. Now, I&#8217;m back again with all the same people. So they&#8217;re all going to be in this video again saying &#8216;hey&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">First of all, let&#8217;s listen to a bunch of different greetings.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; Hey.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey, Anthony.<br \/>&gt;&gt; What\u2019s up?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey, Rachel.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Whassup Rachel?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey Veronica.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Morning, guys.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Morning.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hi.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey. &gt;&gt; Hey!<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hello.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Greetings.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey, what\u2019s going on?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey man.<br \/>&gt;&gt; What up, doe?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">You probably noticed a lot of people said \u2018hey\u2019. This is definitely the most common way to greet someone in America. It\u2019s pretty casual, and I use it all the time with my friends. Hey, hey. Notice the shape of the voice. There\u2019s a little curve up, and then a curve down in the voice. Hey, hey, hey. So basically, it\u2019s a stressed word. We start with the H consonant sound and go into the AY as in SAY diphthong. Make sure you drop your jaw enough for the first half of that diphthong. He-e, hey, hey.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; Hey.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey Veronica.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey Rachel.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">We also heard \u2018hi\u2019 a few times. Again, it\u2019s stress, so we have that shape of a stressed syllable, hi. Hi. It begins with the H consonant sound, and we have the AI as in BUY diphthong. Again, make sure you drop your jaw enough for the first half of that diphthong. Hi, hi.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; Hi.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Look at that jaw drop we have on the AI as in BUY diphthong.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">We also heard \u2018hello\u2019. This is a two-syllable word with stress on the second syllable. da-DA, hello. So, it\u2019s that second syllable with the up-down shape of the voice. The first syllable will be pretty flat: he- he-, he-. It begins with the H consonant and has the EH as in BED vowel. But this is very quick, he- he-, hello. The second syllable begins with the L consonant, so the tongue will come up here, ll, ll, and touch the roof of the mouth just behind the teeth. Hello. Then we have the OH as in NO diphthong. Drop your jaw for the first half of the sound, and make sure you round your lips for the second half. Hello. Hello.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; Hello.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">A little bit of lip rounding here for the second half of the OH diphthong.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">You may have noticed, some of the guys added \u2018man\u2019. Hey man.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; Hey man.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">It\u2019s ok to say this only to a man. But you may have noticed that used the term \u2018guys\u2019 for a bunch of girls. So, \u2018guys\u2019 is a little more gender neutral. Hey guys.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; Morning guys.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Morning.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Because I was filming in the morning, a lot of people said \u2018morning\u2019 as their greeting. This is short for \u2018good morning\u2019. Simply, \u2018morning\u2019. Morning. Now, you could say \u2018afternoon\u2019 or \u2018evening\u2019 during those times, but it\u2019s not nearly as common. Morning.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; Morning guys.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Morning.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey, morning guys.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Morning.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Most greetings involve one of these greeting words: hey, hi, morning, and so on, and often a question. The appropriate way to respond is to answer the question, and to ask the same question yourself.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">For example: &gt;&gt; Hey, how are you? &gt;&gt; Good, how are you?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Let\u2019s take a look at a few of these exchanges.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; Staci, Kristina. Hey!<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey, Rach!<br \/>&gt;&gt; How are you guys?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Oh, it\u2019s good to see you!<br \/>&gt;&gt; Yeah, you too! How\u2019ve you been?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Good, good.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey Scooter. What\u2019s up?<br \/>&gt;&gt; What up doe?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey Max. What\u2019s up?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey, how\u2019s it going?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Good, how are you?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey Jenn, hey Frankie.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey.<br \/>&gt;&gt; How are you guys doing today?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Good. How are you?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Not good.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Good. You\u2019re not good?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Not good. I just broke my phone.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey, what\u2019s going on?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Not much. How are you?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Just hanging out. I hear it\u2019s your birthday today.<br \/>&gt;&gt; It is, actually.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Happy birthday, Rachel.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Thank you.<br \/>&gt;&gt; How are you?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Fabulous.<br \/>&gt;&gt; As always!<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey Aaron.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey, how are you doing?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Good, how are you?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Good.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">How are you. We heard this two ways. Once with the word \u2018are\u2019 stressed.\u00a0\u00a0 How are you?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; How are you guys? [3x]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">How are you? But most of the time, you\u2019ll hear it with that word reduced. How are you?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; How are you? [6x]<br \/>&gt;&gt; Great, how are you? [3x]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">How are you? So, in that case, make sure it\u2019s really short, er, er, er, how-er, how-er you.\u00a0\u00a0 How are you, da-DA-da. How are you, da-da-DA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">The most common response to this phrase is \u2018good\u2019. You might sometimes hear \u2018great\u2019. One person even said:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; How are you?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Fabulous.<br \/>&gt;&gt; As always!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">And unfortunately, one person said \u2018not good\u2019, because her phone had just broken.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; You\u2019re not good?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Not good. I just broke my phone.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Another question we heard was \u2018how\u2019s it going?\u2019 So we\u2019re contracting \u2018how is\u2019, how\u2019s, how\u2019s. So just put a Z sound there at the end of \u2018how\u2019. The next word begins with a vowel, so the Z should link those two words together. How\u2019s it, how\u2019s it, how\u2019s it going? Notice the Stop T at the end of \u2018it\u2019. We\u2019re not releasing it: how\u2019s it going. So, just hold the air for a second, and then release again. You can either end with the NG consonant, ng, or with the N consonant, nn. Goin\u2019, goin\u2019. It\u2019s a little more casual, but that\u2019s ok. How\u2019s it going, how\u2019s it goin\u2019.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; How\u2019s it goin\u2019?<br \/>&gt;&gt; It\u2019s goin\u2019.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey, how\u2019s it goin\u2019?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Da-da-DA-da. How\u2019s it going. Again, the answers here will be good, great, not bad, etc.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">What\u2019s up? This is answered just like \u2018what\u2019s going on?\u2019 Usually \u2018nothing\u2019 or \u2018not much\u2019, but you can say what you\u2019re doing in that moment. You can hear this as \u2018tsup\u2019, with the TS reduction. We also heard it as \u2018whassup\u2019, where the T was dropped altogether. Whassup. And we even heard one person say \u2018whadup\u2019. So what was he doing here? He dropped the S sound, so now the T came between two vowel sounds. So it was a Flap T, sounding like a D. \u00a0Whadup.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">&gt;&gt; What\u2019s up.<br \/>&gt;&gt;Whassup, Rachel?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey, Brysi. What\u2019s up?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Oh hey Rachel. What\u2019s up?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Hey Scooter. What\u2019s up?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Whadup doe?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">I hope this was helpful. The next time you see someone you know, don\u2019t be afraid to go up and start a conversation.

What does \u2018doe\u2019 mean?<br \/>&gt;&gt; \u2018Doe\u2019 is a\u2026urban term, which can mean \u2018though\u2019. However, you just add it for that emphasis onto the end of sentences.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Pretty much anything?<br \/>&gt;&gt; It\u2019s like an exclamation point, almost.<br \/>&gt;&gt; Can you say it again?<br \/>&gt;&gt; Whadup doe!<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">That\u2019s it, and thanks so much for using Rachel\u2019s English.<\/p>\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-2056-1\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" preload=\"metadata\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/07f1c47b71c75472a3cc-b7eea9689205a6672fd1aa00be922d89.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com\/328%20-%20How%20to%20Greet%20Americans_%20HEY_%20American%20English%20Pronunciation.mp4?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/07f1c47b71c75472a3cc-b7eea9689205a6672fd1aa00be922d89.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com\/328%20-%20How%20to%20Greet%20Americans_%20HEY_%20American%20English%20Pronunciation.mp4\">https:\/\/07f1c47b71c75472a3cc-b7eea9689205a6672fd1aa00be922d89.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com\/328%20-%20How%20to%20Greet%20Americans_%20HEY_%20American%20English%20Pronunciation.mp4<\/a><\/video><\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Feel at ease saying hello to Americans with the phrases you&#8217;ll study in real English conversation.
