today six words we have down from a higher to the lower point done finished

dawn day break gown a long dress gun a firearm and gone no longer present so

we're really going to focus today on the endings of these words that's really

going to help you the most Spelling's get a little confusing because the words

are spelled not as they are pronounced so we have down and gown

done and gun dawn and gone now I make it some people saying oh I pronounce this

differently but again we are going for clarity here so there are variations I'm

going to just teach you one way alright so if we're down and gown we are going

to use that ow vowel to do that you're going to open wide ow and then pucker ow so

it's a oval mouth and your tongue is nice and long and then you're going to

move to a pucker and as you move to the pucker your tongue is going to move up

doesn't touch anything then you're going to end with the nnn sound you do this

touch the tip of your tongue to the back of your top front teeth and the air

moves out of your nose next for done and gun

we have these short uh sound your mouth is relatively closed yes it is slightly

open and your tongue is just relaxed in your mouth uh that vowel is nice and short

and then again move to the n nnnn gun done last we have these short

in dawn and gone and to do this open your mouth and a wide oval shape do not round

your lips and the tip of your tongue will be low in the mouth and the back of

your tongue will be pulled up a bit and then move to that n on on yes this is the

word on like you put something on top all right so let's get these

words a try down gown done gun dawn gone and I'm

gonna try them a little faster down gown done dun dawn

gone so give it a try I know people are going to notice the difference if you
