  • Hi there, this is Harry.

  • And welcome back to my podcast where I try to help you to get a better understanding of the English language so that you can enjoy conversations with your friends, your colleagues.

  • You can travel when you can travel business English.

  • Look at grammar, all aspects of English that will help you to improve it and to enjoy it.

  • Of course, I'm glad so many of you are joining us because I get lots and lots of emails, I get lots and lots of texts, so it's great to hear from you.

  • I'm glad you like them and the content.

  • And for those of you out there who are sometimes complaining not badly about me speaking too quickly, I'll try to slow down just a little bit and hope that we keep the interest alive.

  • As always, if there's anybody out there that you think will enjoy it, well, why don't you tell them about it and they can get in touch with us as well.

  • Okay, so what we're going to do today, and this particular podcast is sponsored by the letter t.

  • T.

  • In fact, the t is quite an interesting letter because there are lots of different sounds and it presents lots of problems for people in pronunciation in particular.

  • So we're going to split this into two parts.

  • And this particular part, I'm going to focus just on the normal, natural t sound.

  • And then for the next podcast I'm going to look at the th sounds.

  • Th th, yeah.

  • Okay.

  • So I decided to split it because there's a lot involved and I want to focus on these sounds differently so that you, you won't get confused.

  • Okay, so let's get on with this and let me stop talking.

  • So how do we pronounce that?

  • Well, to make the sound, the target sound, t or t, you have to put your tongue behind your top teeth.
