English Pronunciation | The Letter 'B' | How to Pronounce the Hard, Soft and Silent B

In this English Pronunciation lesson, I'm going to to help you learn how to pronounce the letter B in English.
In this lesson there are over THREE ways to pronounce the letter B. The First is the HARD B found in words like Boy and Ball. The second is the softer B usually found at the end of words like Tube and Describe. And finally I'm going to help you to learn about the SILENT B which can be confusing for learners of English and is often found before or after strong consonants like M and T as in words like Bomb and Debt.
The Letter B in English is a CONSONANT letter and is pronounced in the alphabet as /bi:/.
00:00 Introduction
00:22 How to Make the B sound
01:20 B At the Beginning of Words
02:36 B In the Middle of Words
05:42 B At the End of Words
08:51 Silent B
11:14 Practice Sentences
13:38 Test

    My brother studied languages at the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center in California. The pace of study was intense. Students had to master the language course in 36-64 weeks. Psychologically it was very difficult, but fortunately he was helped by Yuriy Ivantsiv's book "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages”. The book " Polyglot Notes" became a desk book for my brother, because it has answers to all the problems that any student of a foreign language has to face. Thanks to the author of the channel for this interesting video! Good luck to everyone who studies a foreign language and wants to realize their full potential!
