Lessons Unit 1, lesson 31

g as in go

One consonant, on its own page. Hear it, watch where it sits in each word's sheet, then say the words yourself.

gthe g in go

Made at the back of the mouth, like k but with your voice on. Put a hand on your throat: g buzzes, k doesn't.

ˈɡ g o
go
ˈb b æ a ɡ g
bag
ˈɛ e ɡ gg
egg
ˈɡ g l l æ a d d
glad

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.

ˈɡ g ɹ r æ a b b
grab
ˈl l ɛ e ɡ g
leg
ˈd d ɔː o ɡ g
dog
ˈɡ g ʊ oo d d
good
ˈɡ g ɝ ir l l
girl
ˈɡ g oa t t
goat
