All vowels are voiced. All diphthongs are voiced. Consonants can be either voiced or unvoiced. Unvoiced consonants are made just with air, no, uhh, sound from the vocal cords. For example, hh, sh, tt, pp. Voiced consonants do have voice in them, uhh, like: mm, bb, zh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Hh, sh, tt, pp.<br \/>Mm, bb, zh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">There are lots of consonant pairs where the mouth position is the same, and one is voiced, the other is unvoiced, for example, CH \/ JJ.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Every once in a while, I\u2019ll get a comment on a video asking about the pronunciation of these paired consonants at the end of a word. These come from people with a good ear that pay attention to what they hear. Mostly they say, I don\u2019t hear a voiced consonant, I hear an unvoiced consonant. They\u2019re right. We\u2019re going to get into a topic here that is quite advanced. It deals with subtle differences of sound.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Let\u2019s take, for example, the word \u2018flowers\u2019. In IPA, we spell that like this: the ending consonant is the Z sound, which is voiced. But actually, that kind of sounds like an S at the end, doesn\u2019t it? Flowers, ss, ss. A really weak, light S. It doesn\u2019t have a strong S, flowersss. That\u2019s not correct. But it also doesn\u2019t have a strong Z, flowerzzz. Flowers, ss, ss. It actually has a very weak S.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Several years ago, I was reading an old pronunciation book and it said how in these voiced\/unvoiced pairs, the unvoiced is strong and the voiced is weak. I didn\u2019t really know what that meant until I started thinking about ending consonants. These ending consonants are so weak that we take the voice out of them, and they end up sounding like weak unvoiced sounds. So the word is not flowerssss or flowerzzz but flowers, ss, ss, a weak unvoiced consonant.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Let\u2019s look at a few more words.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Dive, ff, ff. It\u2019s really a very weak F [f]. It\u2019s not divvve or difffe, but dive, ff, ff.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Garage, sh, sh, sh. It\u2019s a very weak unvoiced SH sound. It\u2019s not garasshh or garazzhh, but, garage, sh, sh, sh.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Badge, ch, ch, ch. Very weak, unvoiced sound. Not batch, or baDGE, but badge, ch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Weakening these ending voiced consonants can help you say the words more easily and more naturally.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Let\u2019s study the word \u2018badge\u2019 a little further, and compare it with \u2018batch\u2019. Badge, batch. The ending of \u2018badge\u2019 is weak. Badge. The ending of \u2018batch\u2019 is stronger. \u2018Batch\u2019. That\u2019s not the only difference. The unvoiced ending also makes the vowel a little bit shorter.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Badge, batch. They don\u2019t sound quite the same. First of all, the ending of \u2018batch\u2019 is stronger. Badge, batch. CH, CH, instead of ch, ch. Also, the vowel is longer on the word \u2018badge\u2019. Vowels are a little longer before voiced endings in these kinds of minimal pairs. So, you have two clues to help figure out which word it is: the strength of the ending and the length of the vowel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">But, there is a time when the weak ending gets stronger. Do you know when that is? It\u2019s when we link it to a word that begins with a vowel or diphthong. In a consonant to vowel link, it helps to think of the ending consonant as beginning the next word. So if you think of it as a beginning consonant, then it gets much stronger. Let\u2019s go back to the word \u2018flowers\u2019, and put it in a phrase, \u2018flowers on the table\u2019. Flowers on, flowers on. Now I\u2019m hearing a little bit more of a clear Z sound, zon [3x]. Flowers on. It\u2019s stronger than when the word was at the end of a sentence. I love flowers. ss, ss, ss. Flowers on, zz, zz, zz. So if the ending, weak voiced consonant links into a vowel, it\u2019s not really that weak anymore.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">This topic was pretty advanced. So if you don\u2019t understand, don\u2019t worry. If you do, think of lightening ending voiced consonants and see if that helps make the pronunciation of those words easier.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">If there\u2019s a word or phrase you\u2019d like help pronouncing, please put it in the comments below.
