Lessons Unit 1, lesson 4
ʌ as in cup
One short vowel, on its own page. It is quick and clipped — hear it alone, then find it inside each word below, then say the words yourself.
ʌthe u in cup
Let everything relax — jaw loose, lips doing nothing. A short sound from the middle of your body: uh — cup, sun. If it feels like almost no effort, it's right.
Now say it yourself
Read each word from its sheet, out loud, three times. Where there's a play button, listen first and copy what you hear. Slow is fine — clear beats fast.
