Hey everyone jennifer from Tarle speech with a  very quick question of the week. The question  

is how do I pronounce the word although  that means in spite of. Okay so we have  

Future simple

lots of letters spelling this word but very  few sounds and I'm going to give you a few tips  

so this might help you say this word a  little easier. We're going to start with the  

all this is like the word a-l-l that you probably  say all the time, and that you can say typically.  

When we say the word all you open the mouth and  a wide oval tip of the tongue is down back of the  

tongue is pulled up then you move the tongue tip  to behind the back of the top front teeth: all.  

Okay here's the trick: you can also make  an l by sticking your tongue out of your  

mouth and touching your teeth. I know it  sounds crazy but i'm going to show you.

So again i'm sticking my tongue out for  that L - that is an option. Most people  

don't say an L that way but you can and  we're going to do it here for this word.  

The next sound is that th sound where your  tongue is out of your mouth and air is  

going to move over your tongue so you kind of  have to make your tongue into like a u shape.

You can kind of see that u shape that  I have that allows the air to move  

out, over the top of the tongue, out of the mouth.  Your voice box is on and vibrating and moving.

So you can see when I stick  my tongue out for the L  

I only have to move it down  away from my teeth for that th.

Then we're going to end with that long o.  

Pucker those lips and make it nice  and long. Let's try that all together:

all though although although  although although although although 

Although this is very tricky I know you will  all get it with a little bit of practice.

So give it a try people will  definitely notice the difference
