We have two words today that are the main  focus of the lesson and then i'm going to add  

a few words in because I think some of you  might have questions about those as well.

So our words are: migrant which is a person who moves  

from place to place, often for work and migraine a severe headache

So let's look at these two  words: migrant and migraine.

So the first part of this word is like saying my.  

So to do this, what you're going to do, is  you're going to open your mouth really wide for  

that I sound. It's going to be in a wide open oval  shape and then you are going to close your mouth,  

I, to a smile. Your tongue is going to  start low in the front, high in the back, I.  

And then it's going to move to nice  and high and flat in the mouth I.

So for that m lips are closed, air  moves out of your mouth: my my my

Next let's move on to that g r combination. For  the g sound, the tip of your tongue is going to  

be down, back of your tongue is pulled up, air  is just going to puff out of your mouth. G G

Then you are going to move to that r. For  the r I keep the tip of my tongue down in  

the bottom of my mouth and the back of the  tongue continues to be pulled up. GR GR GR

I do close my lips slightly when I move to  that r sound, and I move to more of a square  

tense lip shape. You do not  want to add a sound between  

the g and the r. There is no vowel there. You  do not want to say Ga rain it's just GR GR GR

So you smoothly move from that g to that r  

sound. Yes you can make the r sound with  the tip of your tongue flipped back,  

but the key is do not touch your teeth for  that r, and do not let your tongue move.

Now for migrant you're going to add that short  uh sound, and then you're going to move to the n.  

Touch the tip of the tongue to the back of the top  front teeth for that N. Air moves out of the nose,  

and then when you pull your tongue down, the  air puffs out of your mouth for that t. N T N T.

Let's put that one together: my grunt 

my grunt migrant migrant

Now for grain we're going to start with that gr  again. And then we're going to move to that long  

a sound. To do this, wide open circle  mouth, tip of your tongue is low,  

back of your tongue is pulled up, and  then you're going to move to a smile  

for the end of that sound. When you move to  the smile your tongue will be high and flat.

a a a

And then we're going to end with the M: m. Tip  of the tongue touches the back of the top front  

teeth, air moves out of your nose: grain grain grain

And let's put that together: migraine migraine migraine

So we have: migrant  

migrant migrant and migraine migraine migraine

Now some of you might be asking what about  immigrant who is a person who intends to  

settle in a new place. And what we  would do here, is we would just add  

ima ima. And let me write that  down for you it would be IMA grunt

So that would be immigrant immigrant immigrant.

Now if we have immigration, we do know that  we need to change that syllable stress. If  

you've watched my videos you for sure know that.  And then we are going to move to ima grey shun

Because remember, you always stress the  syllable right before the shun. So we have:

migrant migraine immigrant immigration migrant migraine immigrant immigration

And now for a sentence:

The migrant had a migraine since the paperwork  for a new immigrant was very lengthy.

So give it a try I know people are  going to notice the difference.
