When you're talking about your country and you're saying, "Oh my God, in my country, we have the most amazing bitches!"

So, this is a classic: is it /i:/ or /ɪ/?

So, you may have heard that the only difference is it's a long sound for /i:/ and a short sound for /ɪ/

Long sound for sheep, short sound for ship.

But there's more to it in that, and I'm gonna show you two ways that you can definitely make the sounds without any mistakes!

First of all, just look at my mouth - that's a weird thing to ask!

When I say these two words : 'Beach.' 'Bitch.'

And with 'beach', your mouth makes a smily mouth, which is good!

But, you could also make this sound regardless of what mouth shape you make!

I did the same mouth shape and produced two different sounds!

It's what happens inside the mouth that's the real secret.

I don't know whose pen this is, and I don't know where it's been!

So, with 'bitch', your tongue stays down.

With 'beach', your tongue comes up and closes the gap inside your mouth!

So, you see, to make the /i:/, I have to lift my tongue up, to get that /i:/.

Because what it's doing, it's closing the mouth to get a higher pitch sound!

So, tell us, what do you like to relax with?

[Where I'm from, there are lots of beaches.]

Don't call women bitches, it's ... wrong.
