/oʊ/ vs /ɑ/ Minimal Pairs - American English Pronunciation Practice -

This video will help train your ear to hear the difference between the /oʊ/ as in ROSE vowel sound and the /ɑ/ as in OLIVE vowel sound. Listen to each Minimal Pair and repeat the words aloud. (Minimal Pairs are two words that sound the same EXCEPT FOR one sound). The /oʊ/ as in ROSE sound is a diphthong - or moving sound. The mouth position changes as the sound is formed. Begin with your lips rounded in a big circle and move them into a smaller O with your lips extended forward as they are when making the /w/ sound. As the circle created by your lips gets smaller, the tongue moves from a middle to high position. Sample words: NO, DON'T, GO The /ɑ/ as in OLIVE vowel sound is the same vowel sound in HOT and in the first syllable of FATHER. To make this sound, drop your jaw as if you are yawning. The lips do NOT round. The tongue is relaxed on the floor of the mouth.
