hi there i'm christine dunbar from speechmodification.com and this is my smart american accent training welcome to our word of the day series where i've been taking your requests for pronunciation of american english words you can leave your word in the comments and i'll add it to my list to cover in the series today's request was from one of our channel members and he was noticing the challenges of the words color collar and collar and this was a great suggestion because many people will probably have the same challenges with these words because they are very similar the only difference between color color and color are the which vowel the um the first syllable has excuse me so all of these words are stressed on the first syllable so we have um the er is short on all of them and the length is on the first syllable we have the same sounds at the end so l-o-r l-e-r and l-a-r they all say the lure with the er vowel and the l sound so that's going to be challenging in and of itself for many people moving from the ul to the er is difficult you can try this part of the word by itself lur ler lifting the tongue in the front initially and then pulling it back into the er position i suggest doing the er part first and then adding the l if you find it challenging so try er blur blur you can get more help for the l sounds and r sounds on my american r playlist and then my american l video in the word color this letter o says the vowel schwa and it sounds like i want to go long on that color color and for the schwab my tongue is central and relaxed color color for color color the letter a says vowel ah this is the symbol here my lips are rounded and my jaw is also fairly central ah it's a little bit more open than the uh color collar so my jaw is a little bit more open my lips are rounded this is the same vowel that's in words like law and caught for this one you might want to try the word all with that vowel all and then call and finally collar collar and then lastly collar has the ah vowel and that's an open unrounded vowel so when i say ca collar i don't want to feel any lip rounding the main difference between a collar and collar is that caw has rounding and ca is more open unrounded my jaw is slightly more open for the kaw than the kaw but it's fairly similar they're both back vowels so finally collar collar i have the ah sound you'll see here in this ipa description of a collar that i have primarily the ah vowel there but you will hear some americans who don't make much of a difference between...
