  • February March April May and June for the rest of the pronunciation lessons so

  • let's go ahead and start the lesson how do I pronounce July you have two options

  • for this month I typically say July but I do hear people say Joo ly so you

  • can do either so let's start with syllable two since it's the same for

  • both of these words we're going to end with lie and to do this you're going to

  • touch the tip of your tongue to the back of your top front teeth and then you're

  • going to move it away and then move to that I sound to do this your mouth is

  • going to be open very wide so that the tongue can rest in the bottom of your

  • mouth with the back pulled up and then you're going to move your tongue high

  • and flat in your mouth and smile to end that I vowel lie and I spelled it

  • like this because that's how we would actually spell the word but it's

  • actually only two sounds here L- I lie now for your options July or July so to

  • say July what you're going to do is start with a J sound by touching the tip

  • of your tongue to the back of your top front teeth and then you're going to

  • pull it into the middle of your mouth for the j and then move to the oo

  • vowel which is nice and long - Ju Lie July or you can again start with that J

  • sound just and then add the uh the schwa short uh

  • Jah Jah July July July so we have ju-lie July or Ju-lie July I'm gonna say
