This is the Sounds American channel. • In this video, we're going to talk about the American consonant sound /k/, as in the word key. You can also hear this sound in words like king, can, lack or queen. • We'll be using a special phonetic symbol - /k/ - for this sound. • The /k/ is one of six sounds in the stop consonants category. • Although this may seem like an easy sound to pronounce, it's probably more complicated than you think. Let's find out why. • We'll start with reviewing what we learned in the Stops Sounds Overview video. • The /k/ is made by stopping the air with the back of your tongue in your throat. • The /k/ is a voiceless sound. It has a voiced counterpart, the consonant sound /g/. • In American English, aspiration is important for the pronunciation of all stop sounds, and the /k/ is no exception. • The /k/ sound is made with a strong puff of air at the beginning of words and syllables. • At the end of words, the /k/ follows the final stop rule and is not aspirated. • The /k/ is also unaspirated after the /s/ consonant. • Listen to the following examples: • • key, kite, across • • look, lack, lake • • skate, skill, scrabble, • Now that you've reviewed the essentials, let's find out how to make the /k/ sound. • Slightly open your mouth and leave your lips in a neutral position. • Now you have to stop the air in your mouth. • Let's take a closer look at how to do that. • Raise the back of your tongue toward your throat. • Next, stop the air with the back of your tongue and then release it with a strong puff. • If you make this sound correctly, you'll hear a burst of air, like this: /k/. • Now, let's try saying it: /k/, /k/, /k/. • Ok, time to practice this sound in some words. • Let's start with the /k/ sound at the beginning of words. Don't forget to make a strong puff of air when you pronounce it. • Let's begin! • • call • • calm • • can • • car • • career • • cash • • cause • • choir • • class • • clear • • coach • • coin • • command • • commercial • • compare • • complain • • complete • • computer • • condition • • consist • Let's pause here for a second and review the final stop rule: • When stop sounds are found at the end of words and syllables, they are not aspirated. • This is what we'll practice with the next group of words. • Let's continue! • • back • • bake • • black • • luck • • music • • park • • rock • • sack • • smoke • • snake • • stomach • • strike • • mistake • • postmark • • sidewalk • Great job! • Now you'll practice words with the /k/ sound after the /s/ consonant. Remember, in this position, the /k/ is pronounced without a puff of air. • Let's do it! • • scale • • scar • • school • • scream • • screen • • skate • • skill • • squad • • squat • • squeeze • • prescribe • • transcript • • corkscrew • • describe • • discover • • discuss • • escape • • excuse • • mosquito • • subscribe • By the way, did you know that even though the /k/ sound has its own letter 'K', that's not how it's written most of the time? • Yes, that's right. This sound is most often written with the letter 'C', as in the words cat, cot, cut or club.
