words that are spelled differently, have different  meanings, but you pronounce them the same way.

We have two words today: 

hostile which is unfriendly,  an enemy, or opposed and 

hostel which is lodging that provides  inexpensive often shared rooms and bathrooms

To say these words correctly two syllables or  beats in these words. We're going to start with  

haas and to do that start with that h. Open  your mouth. It's relaxed. Air moves out.

Next open wide for that ah. Tip of the tongue  is low, back of the tongue is pulled high up,  

and then add the s. You can either have your  tip of your tongue down or behind the top front  

teeth. It's just not touching the teeth and the  air continues to move out of your mouth. haas

Then we're going to end with syllable number two  tul. And to do this, touch the tip of your tongue  

to the spot where your teeth meet  the skin on the roof of your mouth,  

and the air is going to puff out for that  t. You're going to pull the tongue down  

and then pull it right back up and touch  in that same spot for the l. tul tul tul.

You don't have to think about adding a vowel  if you just move from top to bottom like I  

just described, but some people think about that  as having an uh vowel in there, and that's fine. 

And then just relax the mouth for  that uh and then move to the l.

haas tull haas tuoll 

hostile hostile hostile hostile hostile hostile

And now for a sentence:

The hostel will not tolerate hostile guests.

Give it a try people are going to notice  the difference. If you found this helpful,
