Lessons Unit 1, lesson 3
ɛ as in bed
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.
ɛthe e in bed
Mouth half-open, tongue resting in the middle. Short and clear: e — bed, men. Don't let it slide toward ay.
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.
