How to read consonants?

A large number of consonants English sounds practically does not differ from the pronunciation of consonants in Russian sounds, but there is a difference.

There are a few special characteristics that are worth paying attention to. It should be remembered that all English consonant sounds are pronounced only firmly, and voiced consonants at the end of a word are not pronounced dull.

Also, features are present in the pronunciation of individual sounds:

• the sound W differs from V. The sound (W) must be spoken with two lips, and (V) only with the lower lip.
• Sounds P, T, K - pronounced with subsequent aspiration.
• About half of the sounds must be pronounced by touching the upper palate with the tongue.

How to read vowels: 4 types of syllables

There are also some specific rules for reading vowels. In English, there are 4 main types of vowel reading (E, A, Y, U, O, I). The pronunciation of a sound in a word or phrase depends on each type.

Open

An open syllable is a syllable that ends in a vowel, even if it is not pronounced.

Reading vowels in such a syllable can be called alphabetical, since often the pronunciation practically does not differ from what it is in the alphabet:

• A - (ei)- lake, take, care, safe, late;
• O - (ou)- pose, rose, note, no, joke;
• E - (i)- me, she, creepy, delete;
• I (Y under stress) - (ai)- deny, dislike, nice, sunshine;
• U - (u :)- purple, pupil, autotune, youtube.

But there are also exceptions, of which the English language is full. Some words you want to pronounce according to the basic rules, but in fact they have a different pronunciation. The words dove, love, none, done, some - in these words, the letter (o) must be read as short (a).

Closed

A closed syllable is significantly different from an open one. A closed syllable is a syllable ending in one or more consonant letters. In words with a closed syllable, letters are read differently than in the alphabet. It all depends on how the consonants follow the vowels.

If the letter Y is unstressed at the end of the word, then it should be read as a sound (i): truly, ugly, spicy.

Vowel + r

Let's look at some examples:

• A - (a :)- farmer, park;
• E - (e :)- service, perfect;
• I - (e :)- first, bird;
• O - (c :)- fork, morning;
• U - (e :)- church, turn;
• Y - (e :)- myrtle.

Vowel + r + vowel

The fourth type of reading is a combination of two vowels in a word, between which there is a consonant r, for example:

• A– (ea :)- parents, careful;
• E - (ie :)- cereal, here;
• I - (aie :)- dire, tire;
• O - (c :)- snore, bore;
• U - (jue :)- during, pure;
• Y - (aie :)- ture, byre.

How to read letter combinations and diphthongs?

Many vowel sounds in English depend on consonants standing together, let's take a closer look:

a + s + consonant -;

ear - under stress, if there is no consonant after -;

ear - before a consonant - [ə:];

eer - under stress -;

ew - if not after l, r, j -;

ew after l, r, j -;

oo + consonant -;

u - after r, l, j, as well as before the vowel -;

ui after r, l, j -;
