You can check out the videos on my page about the Dark L consonant, and/or you can check out English Pro, my online training program that has live classes: courses.sandiegovoiceandaccent.com/bundles/english-pro I'd be happy to work with you during a live class on the l+d pronunciation :)

    I have doubts about the pronunciation of the word "Cure". I'm aware the this word begins with some sort of cluster /k/ as in cat + /y/ as in yes, so we have /ky/. However, the Vowel sound in this word kind of tricks me up. I don't know for sure if it's /or/ as in more o if it's /er/ as in her. Sometimes I even hear this word pronounced with some kind of /oo/ as in food /kyoor/. It's so confusing. Is there any standart pronunciation or ALL three pronunciation are fine? /kyor/, /kyer/, /kyoor/? What the heck!

  • @SanDiegoVoiceandAccent
    @SanDiegoVoiceandAccent7 күн бұрын

    Great question! And the answer is...all three pronunciations! It just depends on the speaker, where they're from, and their preferences. I've heard all three pronunciations you mentioned in your comment :)
