Pronounce the 100 Most Common English Words PERFECTLY | British English Pronunciation


hello and welcome back to english with
lucy I’ve got a new microphone very
exciting a lot of you have been
commenting on my audio quality so I’m
going to try and improve it with this
I’ve also ordered another one for
voiceovers so hopefully my audio quality
from now on will be wonderful one thing
I am having trouble with at the moment
is my focus so please bear with me with
this with this lesson because I know
that my focus isn’t great it’s something
I’m working on so today’s lesson is
going to be a pronunciation lesson
Oxford did a study of over 1 billion
words and they chose the 100 most used
words in the English language so I’ve
taken those 100 words and I’m going to
pronounce them for you now in my opinion
the absolute best way to sound more like
a native speaker is to imitate other
native speakers so I want you to imitate
or to copy me so I’ll say the word and
then you repeat I’ll say it again and
then you repeat and then we move on to
the next one now remember that I am
speaking British English so my
pronunciation will be different to an
American speakers pronunciation American
English can be quite different but just
as beautiful now these words might seem
quite easy to you because they’re words
that we use all the time but really
concentrate on the vowel sounds because
in many languages like Spanish you have
5 vowel sounds and in British English we
have 12 vowel sounds as well as
diphthongs now I do have the list the
complete list of the words in the
description box so if you are looking
for the pronunciation of a specific word
then you can check that and click on the
right timing okay let’s begin
the the bb2 to of of and and ah
or a ah a in in that that have have I I
