hey there Jennifer from Tarle speech with your pronunciation question our

question today is how do I say the word golf the game with the little ball and

情態副詞

the stick where you hit and the club actually that's the correct word and

gulf which is a body of water surrounded on three sides the heart of this lesson

is going to be the vowel and we are going to talk a lot about that also

people get really confused with that L F at the end and we will address that as

well so let's look at these words all right we have golf and gulf let's just

start with the G that's the easiest tip of the tongue is in the bottom of the

mouth the back of the tongue is pulled up gg g g  and let's go to this L

F we are going to touch the tip of the tongue to the back of the top front

teeth for that L LLL and then pull the tongue down as you gently bite that

bottom lip so that you can make the F sound and the air can keep moving out of

your mouth do not close your teeth if you close your teeth it's going to sound

like a P sound and we're not trying to say gulp we're trying to say Gulf all

right now for the vowels what do we do most people will say Gulf and the reason

they say that is because the mouth is very relaxed so I hear most people say

this word Gulf even if they mean Golf and the reason is is that this is a very

open oh sound that English has that a lot of other languages don't and to make

this sound think of making a wide oval mouth that's going to help you get the

tip of your tongue low in the bottom of your mouth but the back of your tongue

pulled up so just try that vowel by itself

oh we put it all together we have g  all f golf golf golf and then we have with

a more closed mouth for that short u Gulf Gulf

Gulf and let me add this last word since this could be a mistake as well if you

close your lips too much when you're trying to say that F sound you can say

gulp which means to drink quickly and you make a noise with your throat gulp

gulp gulp so let's give those all the try golf golf golf gulf gulf gulf gulp

we like to gulp down drinks when we are on the Gulf playing golf give it a try I

know people are going to notice the difference if you found this helpful
