Lessons Unit 1, lesson 9

ɔː as in law

One long vowel, on its own page. The ː mark means hold it — hear it alone, then in the words, then say them yourself.

ɔːthe aw in law

Open your mouth, round your lips a little, and hold: law. Deeper and longer than the short o in cot.

ˈl l ɔː aw
law
ˈs s ɔː aw
saw
ˈd d ɹ r ɔː aw
draw
ɔː a l ll
all

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.

ˈd d ɔː o ɡ g
dog
ˈl l ɔː o ŋ ng
long
ˈs s ɔː o ŋ ng
song
ˈw w ɔː a ɾ t ɚ er
water
ˈb b ɔː a l ll
ball
ˈɔː o f ff
off
