Lessons Unit 1, lesson 44
ɾ as in butter
One consonant, on its own page. Hear it, watch where it sits in each word's sheet, then say the words yourself.
ɾthe fast t in butter
Between vowels, American t becomes one quick tap of the tongue — butter comes out like budder. Soft and fast; a full hard t there sounds over-careful.
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.
