Today I am going to told you about singular sounds, which are very common in English, and sometimes the pronunciation of those sounds is a little complicated for people that don´t have much oral practice; I mean blend between consonants .Consonant blends may consist of two or three letters whose sounds are blended together. Each letter within the blend is pronounced individually, but quickly, so they blend together. Here are the words of the lesson:
In them we can see some of the most frequent blends such as sm; br; pl; st; thr, to the beginning of words; and sk; ft, to the end. Even, some in which the feature is observed at the beginning and end of the word at the same time.
twist----tw and st stink-----st and nk stamp----st and mp
This lesson proved to be very useful, because it helps to get practice in pronunciation in English and to familiarize the ear with these sounds.
