SO I AM CONFUSION. WHY IS THIS ONE KANSAS AND THIS ONE IS NOT ARKANSAS? *AMERICA EXPLAIN! EXPLAIN!!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN ITS ARKANSAW!?!??!?!!?*

@SoundsAmerican

+potato nugget , Why all caps and all the exclamation marks? Hope you're doing fine. 😊The names "Arkansas" and "Kansas" are pronounced differently since "Arkansas" was named for the French plural of a Native American tribe. In French, the final 's' is usually silent, so it's pronounced "Arkansaw." Kansas is named for the Kansas River. It's the English spelling though, so it's pronounced with the final 's'. Hope it helps!

I'm Briton and I was for some reason wondering if I could remember the states of the US and I started naming them one by one out loud and came a US friend and said: "You're pronouncing Arkansas wrong" and I asked her how to pronounce it and tried to pronounce it like her and I just couldn't 😂😂😂.

We have a translator helping with them but Spanish is not their native language. So we just want to make sure that everything is okay. Besides, it's "Spanish" Spanish :). Any other feedback on what could be helpful for your students would be MUCH appreciated.

The basic idea is that you at least try to de-Anglicize the pronunciation. Instead of 'rad' it's more like 'rod'.

@@magnusbane7965 At least how I grew up saying it, the "rad" in Colo _rad_ o is not prounounced as rad from the word "rad", like "that's rad!", or the word radish, but closer to the word "rod" like fishing rod. So, more like Colo _rod_ o. This might be a regional thing but I've never heard anyone say the "rad" one. Hope that helps!

Therefore "until" come out as antiu when Brazilian pronounced it . Other Brazilian struggling is we pronounce every single letter . therefore Life come out as lai-fi (we pronounce lifey instead of life ) I hope you got what i said . it'll be helpful if you have some Brazilian students.
