I hope that you have liked the Color Vowel Chart workshop we had last class. The color vowel chart was created by Karen Taylor & Shirley Thompsom.
Here is their official website.
I think the Color Vowel chart is a valuable resource to master American English vowels. Some other useful resources for you to improve your pronunciation of English vowels are:
1. University of Iowa: "Phonetics: The Sounds of American English".
2. Here is a useful video by the creators of the Color Vowel Chart.
See you in class!

ReplyDeletewow!Color Vowel video is very dinamic to undersatand the class of phonetics .It help me to continue the homework painting :D
ReplyDeleteIn the second I can see different sounds of words in british and in american English, I think that in american English is better, will be because the professor Eva studied in Usa and always a listen her, I think that is better. A word usual is thanks in American English is better. The other simbols was " R" first .,hurt ,girl and other "Ae" hard , thanks.... great video :)
ReplyDeleteIt is very interesting indeed all the videos are difficult to pronounce an when identifying.
ReplyDeleteis necessary the position of the tongue because the sound is better ...we should practice every day so have a good pronunciation
ReplyDeletein my opinion it is interesting to know that we only have 5 vowels and see so many vowels in English. I have trouble differentiating vowels of British American. blessings.
ReplyDeleteIs very important all the positions of our part of speech, because all in group make the work to produce the sound, (vowels and consonant), we have to do practice about more of this. before this post Sept 30. in Our class Sept 24 , we did the class practice about the color vowel Word list I think is very important, take words of examples to see and understand what Kind of sound is each symbol. Thanks Prof. Eva.
ReplyDeletei could not watch the videos because i do not have a good internet,for that reason i could not watch it, but the color vowels charts is really useful for me.now i can understand very clear some sounds.
