Hey there it's Jennifer from Tarle speech with your two for Tuesday!
These are homophones. These words are pronounced exactly the same way,
different spellings and different meanings. We have
stalk which is a stem and stock which are goods shares in a business or the liquid base of a soup.
To say these words correctly we have four sounds. Let's start with the s. sss To do this sound
tip of the tongue is either down towards the bottom of the mouth, the tip of the tongue,
or behind the top front teeth. It's not touching the teeth.
Air is going to continuously move out of the mouth - sssss.
Then you're going to touch the tip of the tongue to the back of the top front teeth for that sss t
Then we're going to move to that open oh.
Wide open oval mouth, tip of the tongue is down, back of the tongue is pulled up.
And then we're going to end with the k.
Again tip of the tongue is down back of the tongue is pulled up and the mouth is open. Air puffs out.
Let's put it all together: s talk
stock stock stock stalk stalk stalk
And now for a sentence:
The corn stalk does not make good vegetable stock.
