How come American English speakers can pronounce every sound other languages can, but not vice versa?
>>9267040
I mean as an American English speaker I might not know what I'm talking about but generally speaking Americans come in contact with the most variety of foreign languages at young ages so they probably learn many more phenoms than people of other cultures.
Why is such a basic word as "literature" completely impossible to pronounce properly?
>litlatule
>litterature
>littlelature
>literachure
>>9267267
I prefer
>lite(l)ture
>>9267267
lit-urr-atchure

i always thought it sounded too similar to really tell the difference
>>9267040
Ever heard an American trying to speak French ?
>>9267040
This is hilariously wrong in every conceivable way.
>>9267438
Good luck on sounding like an English native speaker.
The correct pronunciation of the two 'th' sounds is the final boss of English.
>>9267525
I am an English native speaker though.
Obviously in cases like "Though" then TH- sounds nothing like F-.
But in cases like "four" and "Thor" then they sound too similar to me.
>>9267564
Four sounds like an 'f'.
Thor sounds like a 'th'.
They have nothing in common except being fricatives.
Estuary southern English?

When they learn it young their pronunciation is impeccable. Most americans choose spanish, so if they end up visiting france they only learn a few phrases. Most "cultured" americans can easily pronounce things from other western european languages whose cultures have more of a hold hear. German, Italian, spanish, chinese, even vietnamese words are almost always intoned correctly.
>>9267564
I think he is talking about the two sounds that are both spelled "th" They are made almost the exact same way though, as in the difference between the "th" in "things" and "those."
>>9267040
Am I being baited? Americans can barely keep with latinisms in english, like diphtongs and digraphs
>>9267525
Hath the the three-thirds thought they, then thou thoroughly thinks methinks. Though thy thick thought thins thorough through thunk things, thine theosophies threadbare theme thine theatrics therefore.

I buyed it. English speakers can't deal with tripartite diphthongs.
Like the eau in Bordeaux wants to be broken in the English mouth along e/au fault as e-aux. We'd want it with a horribly asperated ough.

>When they learn it young their pronunciation is impeccable.
That's true for literally any language you retard.
>Most "cultured" americans can easily pronounce things from other western european languages
That's why Americans constantly make the "I'll be Bach" pun?
>>9267267
litter-a-ture
"a" as in the "u" sound in "umpire" and "ture" rhyming with "sure".
Four syllables
>>9267726
The "th" in "things" and "those" are exactly the same though
>>9266555
Pleb mouth? Is this it?

They should be saying "I'll be black"; lmao
