English pronunciation is easy, right? Well, maybe it isn't always a piece of cake, but Tim's back in the pronunciation workshop and ready to give a helping hand. This time he's looking at an aspect of spoken English called schwa. The symbol for the schwa sound looks like this . For more

Today I've finished the entire series of this pronunciation workshop. Heartfelt thanks Tim and The BBC Learning English Team, Finn, Rob, Catherine and other guys. You've really helped me boosting my English. I've completed the upper intermediate course and now I am taking toward advanced course, they're both great. I highly recommend anyone to use your website.
Thank you again. Much love and respect.

This a reply to Danilo's comment. As far as I know, there is no difference in pronunciation between try to and tried to. From what I have learned, similiar sounds like those of d and t are merged together in natural speech and only the last one gets pronounced.
I hope this helps but I would like to read Tim's reply too. Or maybe he already has a video on this. Do you, Tim ?

Hi, I have a doubt about Tim's pronunciation. I heard that he pronounces Ts as a tap, when those are in final position. I thought this wasn't a trait of the English accent. Now, my question is: Is this common among others native speakers?

I'm portuguese native speaker from brazil and i'm crazing with these unpronounceables english sounds (lol). Even so, thank you for the lessons.
