    Native speakers of English should be thankful that they learnt the language without studying pronunciation.

    Too bad I didnt have such a great teacher in my mid school. You helped me separate british from american in your videos. You also made clear so many things I kinda knew and could predict right forms but couldnt explain why if someone would like to ask me about it. I learnt english language actually myself. From games, movies etc. Never had anyone I could consult things with though my english speakin friends sometimes explained me things when I asked them for it. Thanks Elliott. You are fantastic person and teacher. All the best to you for such an amazing work 🙏

    Hi Elliott! First time I leave a comment on any video, guess how much I like yours! I'm a Spaniard who lived in London during 2010-11 (a year studying in Imperial College London) and I had forgotten many MANY of the things I learnt when it comes to talking. My accent is still quite bad, but thanks to you I'm refreshing all I learnt. In the end, imitation (and very demanded corrections from my English friends) is the key (the way kids learn). Until now, I didn't have any models nearby, but your examples make a huge difference, so hopefully next time I travel to London, I'll be fluent again and, maybe, with a proper accent! Thank you so much!

    You know what i find weird that i've not noticed these differences in regards to the "the" word/article only when you mentioned it but i know for a fact that even though i'm not a native english speaker the brain picked up these nuances at the subcouncious level . And i found that you naturally tend to adapt as you speak without really thinking about , but i do believe that it does involve a lot of listening of the foreign language you wish to learn to be able to do that. Anyway great video ! Cheers from Romania mate haha!

I've been horrified, because a lot of English teachers teach the standard/strong pronunciation of the most common words, which is absurd in my opinion! We need to know how words sound in real conversation, in real spoken english! So thank you again for this lesson! I'm happy to find a good teacher as you! Bye
