I’ll, You’ll, …Contractions of “Will” – Quick Pronunciation


on today’s quick pronunciation video
we’re looking at the word will and how
it contracts with all the pronouns and
other words that go with will through
this video I’ll give you examples I want
you to repeat with me so you can
practice the good thing about will is
it’s a modal verb and that means that he
she it doesn’t conjugate any differently
everything is love a Blair will but
today we’re talking about the
pronunciation of the contractions of it
now we all know to contract the pronoun
with will we contract it to apostrophe
ll now the pronunciation of this
contraction can change all depends on
the style of speaking the how fast
you’re speaking and which word in the
sentence has the stress on it which word
you want to emphasize now in school
you’ve learned that the pronunciation of
the contraction is iíll yes that’s true
but it’s not the only way that you can
pronounce this contraction if you
pronounce it aisle for example I’ll go
it sounds like you’re emphasizing the
pronoun i’ or go who will go he won’t go
I’ll go now maybe you don’t want to
emphasize the pronoun maybe you’re just
speaking quickly in this case that aisle
sounds like owl a shorter weaker owl
I’ll go so there you have two possible
pronunciations
I’ll say with me aisle and I’ll I’ll go
where you emphasize the pronoun I aisle
or just in normal speech I’ll go up now
you may have seen our video in which we
explained that the L sound sometimes can
sound like a W sound so instead of L it
can sound like L and the same applies to
this so aisle could be pronounced like
aisle example I’ll go
but again in speech it sounds faster and
weaker so the owl sounds like owl I’ll
go slow down
I’ll go I’ll go I’ll go
so if you really want to pronounce
everything very carefully you could say
I’ll go but that’s not very common and
it’s more common that you’re here I’ll
go the rest of the pronouns okay you
will contract to you’ll or you’ll you’ll
you’ll or you’re you’ll be fine don’t
worry you’ll be fine this way is much
more common say with me don’t worry
you’ll be fine
we will wheel wheel like a wheel of a
cards the same pronunciation also the
same rule applies the L can sound like
an L so wheel wheel ah you’re going to
the cinema will come to state with me we
all come to for example they will veil
or removing the a sound sounds like
they’ll slow down well are they okay
they’ll be fine he will heal or heal
will he come to the party he’ll come
slow down
he’ll come he’ll come she will she’ll
she’ll chill chill she’ll love it
do you think she’ll win yeah I think
she’ll win it’ll it’s all we could even
use a glottal stop it’ll it’ll sounds
better how about in a negative not many
options it’s quite easy for this to make
it negative we add not l’ll not blah
blah okay but that’s not very common
it’s better just to contract this I
won’t and the same for the rest of the
pronouns so negative Z Z won’t if you
