Neat illustration that shows how your mouth pronounces words.

Chart that demonstrates how your mouth pronounced specific words and sounds.

Cool time killer as well, because you are most likely trying every word out to see if the diagram is accurate...

If you want more, look at the International Phonetic Alphabet chart. Place and *manner* of articulation are the two key factors.

the - in Uh-Oh denotes a gutteral stop or shift, we do it in Mountain for the Mountain accent as well. Thats why the sound is produced much

I have always disagreed with R being post alveolar when it's entirely controlled by teeth and lips.

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

you should read up on that, both are possible and some people even spell it in the purple to black area, 3 ways to produce an R

7 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

French rolling Rs are an example of that.

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

It's basically both; the term for this is "secondary articulation." Whether the post-alv or lab-dent component is more prominent depends...

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

...on dialect but also the structure of the word: for most people, the r in "red" has way more lab-dent involvement than the r in "car".

IIRC someone tried to make an alphabet based on the positions of the mouth to aid in pronunciation.

Most Indian languages have alphabets that are arranged in that manner.

Look up the IPA for Polish. That’s what this chart is using, the universal way to learn proper pronunciation of words in any language.

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

The real crazy ones I think are languages with glottal fricatives. Where your vocal cords are basically lightly touching and vibrate.

Glottal fricatives? That's /h/ my dude.

Yup. Already realized I meant/was thinking of pharyngeal fricatives. At least it’s Friday though!
