English Accent - Words Even Native English Speakers Struggle With

You will find the full article, lesson audio file and transcript here: https://adeptenglish.com/lessons/english-accent-words-2/

In this English language lesson we pick some difficult to pronounce English words and practice listening to them and saying them in a lesson about making scones. Sometimes the best way to practice difficult English vocabulary is to mix them into an interesting context which we all know and understand, in this case cooking.

It’s another one of those, let's help you navigate the parts of spoken English you won’t learn in a book. So definitely worth a listen, and if your home and have the ingredients, you might even end up with a classic British scone to eat with your next cup of tea.

As you may have noticed we’ve been quiet recently. The few of us not stuck in lock down or who can work from home have been busy putting the new Adept English website live. The new website is up and running and supporting the podcasts feeds and providing free downloads for our lesson audio and transcript files.

Although the website is working fine we have noticed several minor problems, with some test data still showing up and we have some broken web links. We are working on both problems as best we can and hope to have things all fixed by next Monday’s podcast. It’s been difficult because people who usually do things are just missing in action and rather than delay the launch of the website for months we decided that going with 95% of the website working and fixing 5% was better than no launch. I hope you agree.

If you spot something is wrong and you need help, then please just email us and we will get right on it :)
