Day 4 - Pronunciation 2

Class data:

  • Teacher: Mary (lr.mary3) - Aiza's cover
  • Lesson: Pronunciation - Lesson 2
  • Schedule: 09:00-

What we did today:

  1. Introduction / 1 min
  2. Pronunciation / 22 min

Summary:

In the morning, I got a mail from Langrich. It said Aiza cannot teach today and Mary was chosen as her cover. She also gave me a list(what I want to learn today). I selected Pronunciation Lesson 2.
This time, I learned how to pronunce "s" and "ʃ". To the present I really didn't take any pronunciation lessons. In today's lesson, Mary read words/sentences first, then I repeat them. If I was wrong, she stop me and fixed my pronunciation. This lesson was like "normal". There were one unfortunate point that she ended up a little bit earlier than the time we usually could take was. o' well.
Also I found that I really hated tongue twisters. It made me confused. Sentences I used are below:

  • She sells seashells by the seashore.
  • The shells she sells are surely seashells.

But, I now can say them fluently! Today, we also could use the text all.


New words and expressions:

  • Senate 
    • The smaller upper assembly in the US, US states, France, and other countries.
  • seize (I just forgot this accidentally)
    • to take hold of something suddenly and violently [= grab]
