and blockbuster movies.

And this summer we're going to use those movies

to learn English and study how to sound American.

Every video this summer is going to be

a study English with movies video.

We'll pull scenes from the summer's hottest movies

as well as favorite movies from years past.

It's amazing what we can discover by studying

even a small bit of English dialog.

We'll study how to understand movies,

what makes Americans sound American, and of course,

any interesting vocabulary,

phrasal verbs, or idioms that come up

in the scenes we study.

I call this kind of exercise a Ben Franklin Exercise.

First we'll watch the scene.

Then we'll do an in depth analysis of what we hear together.

This is going to be so much fun.

Be sure to tell your friends and spread the word

that all summer long, every Tuesday,

we're studying English with movies here at Rachel's English.

Let's get started.

First, the scene.

Hey kids, as you know, I am one of the producers

on your movie Good Boys, and unfortunately

I'm here with bad news.

You guys cannot watch the trailer for your own movie.

What?

Are you serious? Come on!

Are you kidding?

It's just too messed up for kids your age.

There's drugs, there's violence, there's swearing.

And although we decided it's okay for you

to do these things in the movie,

you can't watch yourself do them in the trailer.

Now, the analysis.

Hey kids.

Hey kids.

Friendly, upbeat,

pitch is a little bit high,

which to me gives it a more friendly tone.

Hey kids.

Hey kids, and the pitch goes up at the end,

because he's going to keep going.

Hey kids, hey kids.

Hey kids

as you know, I am one of the producers.

As you know, as you know,

and again pitch goes up a little bit,

as you know, I,

and then it links into I which is coming down.

The word as, this vowel can reduce to the schwa,

but I do think I hear it is a pure at the letter a.

The letter S pronounced as a Z and this word,

as, as, as, as,

as you know, as you know.

As you know,

I am one of the producers.

I am one of the producers.

I am one of the producers.

So I and am both have a little bit of length,

as he's thinking about exactly what to say,

exactly how to deliver this,

I am.

I am one of the producers.

I am one of the producers,

I am one of the producers.

Then we get to one of the producers.

Hey guys, I wanted to pop in here

to tell you that Skillshare is, again,

sponsoring this video.

I know you do a lot of learning online, so do I.

One of the things I'm interested in

is increasing my productivity,

so I can continue to make great videos for you guys

but still have more time left over to play

with my two young sons,

and I'm super pleased to see that Skillshare

has so many options for me to choose from.

Come to Skillshare and search on whatever your interest is,

you'll find courses in English,

so you'll be able to study vocabulary and phrases

used when talking about this topic you're passionate about.

It's twice the learning.

Okay, let's get back to the analysis.

I am one of the producers,

Then we get to one of the producers

and the pace picks up a little bit more,

we have the stress syllables,

one of the pro ducers,

one of the pro ducers,

so one and do have the most stress,

of the, and the first syllable of producers

are said really quickly.

One of the producers,

One of the pro, one of the pro, one of the pro,

of and the, we have the of reduction one-a,

of and the, we have the of reduction one-a,

it's just the schwa.

The end links right into the schwa,

the schwa links right into the word the,

which is said really quickly,

your tongue tip does not need to come

through the teeth there.

The, the, the, the, the.

You can just make that by having the tongue forward

in the mouth against the backs of the front teeth,

the, the, the, the,

one of the, one of the, one of the, one of the.

And then the first level of producers,

that has the schwa too.

Pro, pro, pro,

one of the pro, one of the pro, one of the produ,

before the voice slows down,

takes more time on that up down shape of du,

the stress syllable of producers.

One of the producers,

on your movie Good Boys.

On your movie Good Boys.

On your movie Good Boys, again,

intonation is going up here, Boys.

And again, that shows he's not done talking,

he still has more to say about this.

On your movie Good Boys,

In the words on your movie Good Boys,

what's the most stressed there?

On your movie Good Boys,

On your movie,

little bit of stress there on the noun.

On your movie Good Boys, Good Boys,

a little bit more stress on Good,

and then as I said, Boys,

pitch goes up on your,

said more quickly, a little bit flatter in pitch,

we do have a your reduction, it's not your,

but it's pronounced yur, on yur, on yur, on yur.

On your movie Good Boys,

and unfortunately I'm here with bad news.

And unfortunately, and,

okay, usually this word is reduced,

but here it's not, it's fully pronounced.

And the a vowel is even a little bit longer,

he holds on to that,

and, and.

and, and.

And, unfortunately,

Whoa, different day, different outfit,

important announcement.

Did you know that with this video I made a free

audio lesson that you can download?

It's where you're going to train

all of the things that you've learned about pronunciation

in this video.

Back to the lesson.

And unfortunately,

The D almost always dropped,

but I hear it here, it links into the next word,

and-un, and duh duh duh duh.

And unfortunately.

So a fully pronounced and there

as he holds it out, thinks about how to deliver
