You also have to learn about three more sounds: /e / /æ/ and /ʌ/. Listen to the videos and do Unit 4
When you finish you can do more practice here
Let's start testing ourselves. Do this short test and tell me how you did.

ithink that phonetics are great to improve one's english....
ReplyDeletewasn'that exersise easier than lesson 2?
ReplyDeletealso, what does nor mean?
I have done the two units, but what about the other links, do we have to do it too or is opcional?
ReplyDeleteUnit 3's exercises are very easy, /ɔː/ is like our "o" and /əʊ/ is like spanish "ou".
ReplyDeleteThe exercises from unit 4 are more harder. /e / is the tipical "e", /ʌ/ is like an "a" and /æ/ is a mix of /e/ and /ʌ/.
HI EVERYBODY! I FINISHED MY EXERCISES!! exercise 3 was easier than exercise 4 because it was dificult to differenciate in some cases but it makes me do 89% in the test so I feel happy because I begin to understand why we must do these exercises.

althought i have some trouble in lesson 4 with the /ʌ/ sound and the /æ/ sound i think today exercises were easier than the last ones,

I've done the exercises of the two units and I think that unit 4 is a bit complicated for me because I can't distinguish the sound /ʌ/ with the sound /æ/. My mark in the test is 80%.
ReplyDeleteWell I've made some of them wrong, but the most of them were well done. This is perfect to see the difference into both sounds.
ReplyDeleteHello, i have just done unit 3 and 4.
ReplyDeleteFor me unit 3/ɔː/əʊ/was easier than unit 4 e/æ/ʌ/, because in unit 3 you only have to 2 different sounds and in unit 4 you had 3 different sounds, although exercises were not very difficult.
hello, I`ve done all of exercises and it results to me more difficult. I`ve done /ɔː/,it is the real "o". it were too easy. MARIOLOZANO
ReplyDeleteI've made units 3 and 4. I think that unit 3 is the easiest unit because is not very difficult to identificate the sounds. In unit 4, the difference between /æ/and /e/ is very easy, but I can't see clearly the difference between /æ/ and /ʌ/
ReplyDeleteI'm Adri, Ok, I've just done unit 4 and the short test, I got 9 correct and 1 incorrect, so 10 ponits.
ReplyDeleteI've done units 3 and 4, and I think that unit 3 is easier than unit 4, even so both are easier that the first unit. I made some mistakes so I'll keep practicing

I have done both units, but I found the second one was little bit harder the sounds /æ/ and /ʌ/ are hard to recognice but I got 80%. So I´ll keep practicing
ReplyDeleteI've just finished both units! I think unit three is easier than unit four, to identify the sounds of the unit three is very easy.
ReplyDeleteALL RIGHT, I TAKE GOOD NOTE OF THOSE ONES WHO HAVE MADE THE COMMENT.
ReplyDeleteJaime,"nor" means tampoco:"I didn't go to the cinema" "Nor did I" (YO TAMPOCO)
Pablo Y..I am glad you have made your FIRST comment in the blog. Welcome!!!
Eduardo, you DO have to do all the activities. So click on the last links and do the tests.
We'll do some more practice on /æ/ and /ʌ/ and /e/
I'm Miguel Ángel and I have done units 3 and 4 and I haven't got problems to identify the differents sounds but I have to improve when choose the word with different sound.
ReplyDeleteAll right, Miguel Angel, we'll keep practising.
