VOWEL FOUL(How many LONG A sounds in this assignment)

Facts – You’re So Very Special

Do you know how precious life is? They say there’s been about 100,000,000,000

people that’ve ever lived. If you add it up over all time. Do you know how many

people can exist? If you take a look at the genes—find out how many combinations

of genes can make an authentic human being—you can do the math on this. And it is

stupendously larger than the hundred billion. A low-end number would be a million

trillion trillion. What this means is you are alive against staggering odds. You’re

breathing air, observing sunsets, gazing into the night sky… Most people who could

exist will never experience that. And people complain about the life they have? Most

people who could exist will never be born. You are as special as it gets.

My issues:

The first-time(Coach Lan) :

• that'v : tha-d-v

• means: s sound should be more.

• breathing: old habit: ea long e sound not short a sound.

the second time(Coach lan:the yellow background)

• that'v: tha-d-v

• combinations: o is short u sound, first i is schwa sound.

• trillion: more nasal sound.

the third time(practiced with coach Richard. take more about link)

• can exist: can-exist

• can make an: can make-an

• math on this: this short I, more attention to short I sound.

• breathing air: again, old habit, ea long E sound, not a short A sound.

• complain: more nasal sound.

• most people: stop sound, do not add extra schwa sound. Attention.

• you are as special as it gets. are: more R sound.
