question is how do I say the words man a male and men lots of males and woman a

female or women lots of females spelling is super confusing when it comes to

these words so let's go ahead and take a look at them okay so let's start with the

word man man yes I'm actually using some phonetic symbols here just to help us

differentiate the word here so we're going to start with that M sound mm air is

coming out of your nose and lips are together open wide in a round circle

mouth for the AH and that's going to help you get your tongue down and low in

the mouth for the right tongue position the back of your tongue will be pulled

up a bit and then we're going to end with the N sound man and for that end

you're going to touch the tip of your tongue to the back of your top front

teeth and the air is going to come out of your nose again man man for the word

men same beginning and end sound but this vowel is a little closed men-men so

look it's the difference between man and men men so slightly open mouth for the

eh vowel and your tongue is flat and in the middle of your mouth so we have man and

men man men now let's look at woman and women this is where spelling really

confuses people so for women what we're going to do is we're gonna say that ooh

vowel like we hear in the word look so for the vowel

your mouth is slightly rounded the mistake I see is that people pucker way

too much and they say woo and they make that vowel really long it's not going to

be long it's going to be nice and short w for the W and then you're gonna

pull your lips back to slightly rounded for the vowel wooh wooh wooh that is

key you must move from that puckered mouth to slightly rounded lips for the

vowel wooh wooh wooh and then we're gonna end with Mun yes Mun we're not

going to say man it's going to be Mun with a short uh vowel so let's try that

woman wo-man wo-man woman woman woman now for women again spelling is not helping

here we're going to say two short I sounds wi-men women women women and

for that I sound ih again your mouth is just slightly open and your tongue is

down in the middle of your mouth if you're curious the difference between

that eh and the ih look how close those are ih as in wi women as opposed to eh as in men

it's a little more open in the eh so ih eh women women women woman woman woman men

men men Man Man Man Man men woman women so the man addressed the men while the

woman addressed the women give it a try I know people are going to notice the

difference if you found this helpful we would love a like and a share don't
