Love it.

Suka ini.

Hey, everyone. I'm Alex.

Hai semuanya. Saya Alex.

Thanks for clicking and welcome to this pronunciation lesson on the short "a"

Terima kasih untuk mengklik dan selamat datang di pelajaran pengucapan pendek "a" dan panjang/lebar "a"

and the long or wide "a" sounds in English.

dalam bahasa Inggris.

In this lesson, first I'm going to go sound by sound and give you a bunch of words that

Dalam pelajaran ini, pertama saya akan mulai dengan mempraktekkan suaranya dan memberi Anda banyak kata-kata yang

have the short "a" sound, as well as some sentences that use the short "a" sound.

memiliki suara "a" pendek, serta beberapa kalimat yang menggunakan suara "a" pendek

Second, I'm going to give you some words that have the long "a" sound or wide "a" sound,

Kedua, saya akan memberikan beberapa kata-kata yang memiliki suara "a" panjang atau suara "a" lebar,

and some sentences that use them.

dan beberapa kalimat yang menggunakannya.

And then finally, we're going to mix them all up and it's going to be a lot of fun.

Dan terakhir, kita akan mencampur mereka semua dan itu akan sangat menyenangkan.

So, when you are doing pronunciation, it can be a little bit ridiculous when you're practicing

Jadi, ketika Anda melakukan pengucapan, dapat menjadi sedikit lucu ketika Anda berlatih

because you are going to be asked in this video to exaggerate a little bit.

karena Anda di video ini akan diminta untuk membesar-besarkan sedikit.

And honestly, the exaggeration is necessary if you really, really want to perfect, you

Dan jujur, berlebihan diperlukan jika Anda benar-benar, benar-benar ingin sempurna,

know, your English pronunciation, as well as have some fun with it.

Anda tahu, dalam mengucapkan bahasa Inggris, Anda harus menikmatinya.

And also you should know that my English is a Canadian English/Americanish English for

Dan juga Anda harus tahu bahwa bahasa Inggris saya adalah Bahasa Inggris Kanada atau Bahasa Inggris Amerika

this pronunciation lesson.

di pelajaran ini.

So if you are looking for British pronunciation, this maybe isn't the video.

Jadi jika Anda mencari pengucapan Bahasa Inggris British, mungkin itu tidak ada di video.

But if you're interested in Canadian/American pronunciation...

Tapi jika Anda tertarik dalam pengucapan Kanada / Amerika...

Yes, I know that there's a difference, don't kill me, to some degree, but here's what we're going to do.

Ya, saya tahu bahwa ada perbedaan, untuk beberapa tingkat, jangan bunuh saya, tapi inilah yang akan kita lakukan.

So, first we have the short "a" sound.

Jadi, pertama kita punya suara "a" pendek.

And for this I drew a picture of the mouth.

Dan untuk itu saya menggambar gambar mulut.

In this sound your tongue is low, in the low position.

Dalam suara ini lidah Anda di bawah, di posisi bawah.

For both sounds, actually, it's in the low position, and your mouth is only open a little bit.

Untuk kedua suara, sebenarnya, itu dalam posisi bawah, dan mulut Anda hanya membuka sedikit.

So your mouth makes this sound: "ah", "ah", "ah".

Jadi mulut Anda membuat suara: "ah", "ah", "ah".

Now, let's look at some words.

Sekarang, mari kita lihat beberapa kata.

And I just want you guys to repeat the words after me.

Dan aku ingin kalian mengulangi kata-katanya setelah saya.

We'll do it a little quickly.

Kita akan melakukannya sedikit cepat.

Okay?

So, please repeat after me:

Oke?

Jadi, silahkan ulangi setelah saya:

"cut", "hut", "buddy", "cup",

"cut", "hut", "buddy", "cup",

"nut", "shut", "putt", "gut",

"nut", "shut", "putt", "gut",

"cousin", "does", "was",

"cousin", "does", "was",

"nothing", "sun".

"nothing", "sun".

Okay, so you should hear that "ah", "ah", "ah" sound in all of these words.

Oke, jadi Anda harus mendengar bahwa ada suara seperti "ah", "ah", "ah" di semua kata-kata ini.

So, just to practice one more time let's go through the list one more time.

Jadi, hanya perlu berlatih sekali lagi mari kita mulai dari awal sekali lagi.

This is going to help you, I promise.

Ini akan membantu Anda, aku janji.

Just follow me for a few minutes here.

Cuma mengikuti saya selama beberapa menit di sini.

"Cut", "hut", "buddy", "cup", "nut", "shut",

"Cut", "hut", "buddy", "cup", "nut", "shut",

"putt", "gut", "cousin", "does",

"putt", "gut", "cousin", "does",

"was", "nothing", "sun".

"was", "nothing", "sun".

Okay, good.

Oke, bagus.

Now let's look at some sentences with this sound.

Sekarang mari kita lihat beberapa kalimat in

So here we have three-one, two, three-sentences that use the short "a" sound.

Jadi di sini kita memiliki tiga-satu, dua, tiga-kalimat yang menggunakan suara "a" pendek.

So I'm going to say all three first, and after I'm going to go one by one by one, and I want

Jadi saya akan mengucapkan ketiganya, dan setelah saya mengucapkan satu per satu per satu, saya ingin

you to try to say them and repeat them after me.

Anda mencobanya dan mengulanginya setelah saya.

So the first one is: "Buffy loves Sundays."

Jadi yang pertama adalah: "Buffy", "loves", "Sundays".

The second one is: "My mother won some money."

Yang kedua adalah: "My mother", "won", "some", "money".

The third one is: "Some of the rugs are dusty."

Yang ketiga adalah: "Some", "of", "the rugs", "are dusty".

All right. Good.

Baiklah. Bagus.

Now, let's look at the long or wide "a" sound.

Sekarang, mari kita lihat suara panjang/lebar "a" .

We're going to do the same routine, so first this sound your mouth is wide open.

Kami akan melakukan hal yang sama, jadi pertama mulut Anda terbuka lebar.

"Aah".

"Aah".

Imagine you are going to the dentist.

Bayangkan Anda pergi ke dokter gigi.

Okay?

Bagus.

And it's a long sound.

Dan itu adalah suara yang panjang.

Your tongue is still low, in the low position, but your mouth is more open.

Lidah Anda di bawah, di posisi bawah, tetapi mulut Anda lebih terbuka.

So just try it one more time, like you're at the dentist: "aah".

Jadi coba saja sekali lagi, seperti Anda berada di dokter gigi: "aah".

All right, let's do the words now.

"shot", "pot", "got",

'shot", "pot", "got",

"coffee", "doctor", "a lot",

"coffee", "doctor", "a lot",

"honest", "knowledge".

"honest", "knowledge".

All right, and just like before let's go through them one more time.

Baiklah, seperti sebelumnya mari kita ulangi sekali lagi.

From the top: "caught", "hot", "body", "cop",

Dari atas: "caught", "hot", "body", "cop"

"not/knot", "shot", "pot", "got", "coffee",

"not/knot", "shot", "pot", "got", "coffee",

Okay, very good.

Oke, sangat baik.

Now, just like before, let's look at three sentences.

Sekarang, seperti sebelumnya, mari kita lihat ketiga kalimat.

And I will read all three first.

Dan saya akan membaca ketiganya.

One: "Rob stopped shopping."

Pertama: "Rob stopped shopping."

Two: "John got a job."

Kedua: "John got a job."

Three: "It's obviously not!"

Ketiga: "It's obviously not!"

Okay?

Bagus.

So now let's do, like before, one by one.

Baik? Jadi sekarang mari kita lakukan, seperti sebelumnya, satu per satu.

You guys repeat the words after me.

Kalian mengulangi kata-kata setelah saya.

"Rob", "stopped", "shopping".

"It's obviously not!"

All right.

Baiklah

Nice job, guys.

Kerja bagus, guys.

Now let's mix and match them a little bit.

Sekarang mari kita campur dan mencocokkan mereka sedikit.

So what I'm going to do, you see the chart I made at the start of the video here.

Jadi apa yang akan saya lakukan, Anda lihat grafik yang saya buat di awal video di sini

There are some words where it's only this vowel sound that is different and the word changes.

Ada beberapa kata di mana suara vokal yang berbeda dan kata-katanya berubah.

So let's go from the top.

Jadi ayo mulai daari atas.

Repeat after me and see if you can spot the difference:

Ulangin setelah saya dan mari kita lihat apakah anda bisa membedakanya.

"cut", "caught",

"cut", "caught",

"hut", "hot",

"hut", "hot",

"buddy", "body",

"buddy", "body",

"cup", "cop",

"cup", "cop",

"nut", "not/knot",

"nut", "not/knot",

"shut", "shot",

"shut", "shot",

"putt", "pot",

"putt", "pot"

"gut", "got".

Okay.

Oke.

It's a little tough, but the more you practice it, the more you hear these sounds, the more

Ini sedikit sulit, tapi semakin banyak anda berlatih, semakin sering anda mendengar bunyinya, semakin

you try to exaggerate when you're doing them, the better you will be.

Anda mencoba untuk membesar-besarkan ketika Anda mengucapkanya, semakin baik Anda melakukanya.

Now, chaos.

Sekarang, diacak.

Things are going to get crazy.

Hal-hal yang akan membuat gila.

We are going to mix all the sounds together to make some, you know, real sentences because

Kita akan mencampur semua suara bersama-sama untuk membuat beberapa, Anda tahu, pada kalimat nyata karena

you can say: "Buffy loves Sundays", but most people use a variety of vowel sounds when

Anda bisa mengatakan: "Buffy loves Sundays", tetapi kebanyakan orang menggunakan berbagai macam pengucapan suara vokal saat

they speak in their sentences.

mereka berbicara.

So let's look at some sentences that use both of these sounds.

Jadi mari kita lihat beberapa kalimat yang menggunakan kedua suara tersebut

Number one, not even a sentence really, but a noun phrase:

Nomor satu, bahkan bukan kalimat benar, tetapi frase kata benda:

"A hot cup of coffee."

"A hot cup of coffee."

Okay?

I'm going to say them all first, so just follow me.

Oke?

Saya akan mengatakannya pertama-tama, lalu ikuti saya.

"Stop coming here.",

"Stop coming here.",

"My cousin was a doctor.",

"My cousin was a doctor.",

"An honest cop.",

"An honest cop.",

"Come on!"

"Come on!"

All right, so just like before let us go through each of these sentences

Baiklah, jadi hanya seperti sebelumnya mari kita ucapkan masing-masing kalimat ini

and phrases one by one.

dan frase satu persatu.

"A hot", "cup", "of coffee".

"A hot", "cup", "of coffee".

Okay, now just be ridiculous: "coffee", "coffee".

Oke, sekarang sedikit berlebihan: "coffee", "coffee".

Okay, good.

Oke, bagus.

Next one.

Selanjutnya.

Oh, and let's say it faster first.

Oh, dan mari ucapkan itu lebih cepat terlebih dulu.

Before I let you off the hook, let's say this one faster:

Sebelum saya membiarkan Anda lanjut, katakanlah satu ini lebih cepat:

"A hot cup of coffee."

"A hot cup of coffee."

All right?

Baiklah.

Second one:

Yang kedua:

"Stop", "coming", "here".

"Stop", "coming", "here"

"Here", obviously, doesn't use these sounds.

"Here", jelas, tidak menggunakan suara ini("a").

It's a different sound, but say it faster:

Ini suara yang berbeda, tetapi katakan itu lebih cepat:

"Stop coming here."

"Stop coming here."

Excellent.

Bagus sekali.

Next, repeat after me:

Lanjut, ulangi setelah saya:

"My cousin", "was", "a doctor".

"My cousin", "was", "a doctor".

And the whole thing:

Dan semuanya:

"My cousin was a doctor."

'My cousin was a doctor."

All right? Next, I'm just going to...

Baiklah? Berikutnya, saya akan ...

This one is very short.

yang satu ini sangat singkat.

The last two are very short, so we'll just say them one time.

Dua yang terakhir sangat singkat, jadi kita cukup akan mengatakan mereka sekaligus.

Repeat after me:

Ulangi setelah saya:

"An honest cop."

"An honest cop."

One more time: "An honest cop."

Seklail lagi: "An honest cop."

All right?

And the last one:

Baiklah?

And yang terakhir;

"Come on!"

"Come on!"

One more time, like imagine someone is telling you a story, you don't believe it:

Sekali lagi, bayangkan seseorang memberitahu Anda cerita, Anda tidak mempercayainya:

"Come on!"

"Come on!"

Beautiful.

Okay.

Cantik.

Oke.
