GC,
As learnt from the 1st lesson, I found that phonics is not the tool for "pronounciation" but using for reading (assist the Native Speaker) while IPA do. Besides, some "exceptional" cases for pronounciation claimed in phonics can all be explained by IPA. IPA has a universal rules for pronounication.
For example, we use "a" in front of uniform and "an" before hour. IPA can explain all of these.
From the 1st lesson, I knew that (before, I don't know ) A, E, I, O, U are not vowels but are vowel letters .... etc.
For details, you should learn from Dereck Kwok in lieu la.
As introduced by another bk mom, I went to UNY and bought the 童裝福袋 in this morning. :mrgreen:
Most of the size 110 were sold and I bought 2 packs size 110 and 1 pack 130. All are $399 for each pack with different no. of T-shirt, pants, jacket etc. For both paci of size 110, there are total 7 pcs. each of which original price is $10xx while the size 130 pack is of total 10 pcs. which original price is $14xx. The special promotion is from 13-17 Apr. and there is a lucky draw of price $200 and $100 cash coupon for every $1000 buy
So if a e i o u are not vowels per se? They are the vowel sounds or what???
Don't worry , i won't ask for an IPA lesson here ga. Just wish to gather some advance tips. Tks. Let's share more when we have finished the whole course. Any assignments?
GC,
A, E, I, O, U are vowel letters (ie they can produce vowel sound) but they are, itself, not vowel lor eg. "M" is pronounciate "em", so "an" should be used in front instead of "a"
Yes, some assignment but no need to hand over back. I still didn't do tim :-P
I got the 褔袋 (110) la. Frankly,I like the 100 size pack more. But I was advised to buy bigger size instead. How come holman could take 110 and even 130 ga?? 130 will be very big.
I enrolled my bee for a Chinese painting class la. Very interesting trial class today. My bee was taught to draw a sun, the sea and three little 'V' shaped birds today. Very nice!!!
