hey everyone Jennifer from Tarle speech with your pronunciation question
we have four words today and I'm going to cheat and look at my notes because
they're actually difficult we have illusion or connotation illusion
something perceived incorrectly attention taking notice of and intention
the intended plan we're going to look at this today and sort of attack this with
syllables because this is the mistake that I have been hearing sorry I just
had the microphone so we have the word illusion and illusion what I'm going to
suggest is that for the word illusion you think of just starting the word with
a schwa sound ah then move into the lusion for illusion we are going to
think about saying the word ill like you're sick and then end with lusion so
the syllable breaks are going to be different and that's going to help you
pronounce this words we're going to say ah lusion vs. ill illusion illusion
illusion illusion illusion now let's move on to attention and intention same
idea here start with the schwa for the first word ah tension attention
attention attention and then the syllable break is going to
be with that n at the end for the next word in tension in tension intention
intention so we have illusion attention illusion intention illusion illusion
attention intention so again thank Silla will break and just starting with the
schwa sound for these first two words and then ending syllable number one with
the consonant sound here make sure you touch your teeth for that l sound
ill and touch your teeth for that in in and that's going to help make those
words very different so let's give this a try one more time
illusion illusion attention intention I don't have a sentence for you but I
would love to hear your suggestions leave those in the comment section below
