Automatic Mentality Potato Starting Total From the beginning it’s been a very bitter winter. Back in December we had a terrible ice storm and many families mine
included, lost electricity. Today is the little warmer than usual. But I know colder temperatures will return. I’ll try to say warm. You do same.
Final note: This lesson focused on the flap T, but the voiced tap is not limited to words spelled with a T or a double T. You will often hear the same sound in words spelled with a D or a double D

Plosive sound ‘T’ In order to produce an American T sound, the tip of the BOTTOM ridge of your upper
GUMS, unlike the tip touching in the center of your upper bard pattle like for the
Bangladeshi ‘t’ sound.
Let’s try this now, TEEE
Say this 5 times. Now not only 5 times say this more than 5 times if you need to do.
Now with some words:
Tomorrow Time Tennis Tour Tournament
Table Tune Tongue Tap Type
Terrific Terrible Turn Trial Teenage
Tough Tiny Terminate
Now with some American Names:
Tony Thomas Todd Teresa
Tyrene Tom Taylor
Plosive sounds ‘T’ Rules
Rule-1: If T is the beginning of a word: Plosive T is ALL the cases. It took Tim ten times to try the telephone stop touching Ted’s toes. Turn towards Stella and study her contact together. Control your terms. It’s Tommy’s turn to tell the teacher the truth Timothy and Todd told Teresa, their secretary to total up their accounts.

Rules: 2: If T is in the middle of two vowels a soft‘d’ should not be mistaken with an exact D
sound. Otherwise, that would be quite heavy. For the soft‘d’ sound your tongue
needs to flap up to the BOTTOM ridg of upper GUMS. This is same position as the
plosive American T sounds. However, in this case all you need to do is flap at that
position and not apply any effort.
For example:
Better, Computer, Matter, Water, Waiter, Later, Saturday, positive, Pattern, Bottle.
Example: Sentence-
What a good idea.
Put it in a bottle.
Write it in a letter
Set it on the metal gutter.
Put all the data in the computer.
Insert a quarter in the meter.
Get a better water heater.
Let her put a smarter or Betty’s at the meeting.
It’s getting hotter and hotter.
Petty ought to write a better letter.
Frieda had a little metal battle.
Betty bought a bit of better butter.
Pat ought to sit on a lap.

Rule: 3-
If T is at the end of a word: Held‘t’
In this case the‘t’ sound is almost silent, but exactly silent. For this the tip of
your tongue needs to touch on the FRONT WALL of your upper GUMS. It
needs to be more like a resting position, that is why it is called a held‘t’.
There no effort at the end, so thee’s No sound either.
Here is a list of sentences with T sound at the end. Take it. It’s what they want to get. Put them back in the pot. Set the clock back at the event. What did you find at that site?
Rule: 4- T before the N is also a ‘held T’ sound. But in this case the
flapping motion is more in use. For example:
Shorten Written Fountain Mountain Rotten Eaten
Sentence Practice: We need to shorten the kindergarten class.
Coventney had written about the fountain of youth. The sumo wrestlers had eaten well to fatten up. Whitney’s rotten kitten has bitten mortal. They have eaten a lot of chartny in Britain. The molten law poured down the mountain. We’re certain that the saten mitten is near the cartain.

Rule: 5- The last rule five is also about N in the word, but here the ‘T’ follows N
immediately.
If the N is before the T then the T goes silent.
Internet Interact Interview International Percentage Advantage
Practice with sentence: He interrupted twenty interviews in Toronto. There was a large percentage of international students. He won’t even interfere with the interaction. We took full advantage of the internet. He drove interested through to Alkanet. He’s at the international hotel. He wasn’t even helping out. He hasn’t bothered you much, has he? We won’t always do it, believe me. Patty was good right, wasn’t he?
Practice: Listen to the audio reading out a passage for the T sound. You should first find out which
of the five rules apply to the T sounds given in the passage.
Trevor, Todd and Teresa would tie up together every night, and go for the movies, their
favorite movie was “The teacher taught the truth to Tony” . todd and Teresa were quite
fond of tourism, in fact they thought of touring together to twenty different tourist spots.
Trevor however was a typical untidy person ___ so for him packing for a tour seemed
terrible.
