      Hi, mark lewis!       I read your message from 20.05.2015 04:27       about Explain to me please....               ak>> My Oxford dictionary can pronounce words, but I still cannot find        ak>> "the quite difference" between sinner and singer.               ml> as in the definitions?              The main problem IMHO in the nasal sound in "ing". Which many pronounce very       close to "in".              http://www.speakmethod.com/500wordsNsounds.html       -----Beginning of the citation-----       English Pronunciation: Sounds with N An "- ing" ending is used regularly       in central, northern and western areas. "Ing" is considered professional       speech. Americans use "in" regularly (instead of - ing) if they live in       the south -- this ending is part of the southern dialect. People outside       of the south may use "in" for informal speech, especially young people.       In this case, a person may say "ing" sometimes and "in" at other times       depending on the situation.       ----- The end of the citation -----              Bye, mark!       Alexander Koryagin       ENGLISH_TUTOR 2015              --- Paul's Win98SE VirtualBox        * Origin: Quinn's Post - Maryborough, Queensland, OZ (3:640/384)    |
