MASTER English Pronunciation | The 8 Diphthong Vowel Sounds
Do you want to learn to learn English vowel sounds? Master English pronunciation? Do you know what a Diphthong is? They are English Vowel sounds but they are more difficult than the simple (LINK) short english vowel sounds or the simple LONG ENGLISH VOWEL SOUNDS (LINK). The reason they are more difficult is because they are actually TWO vowels that mix and become one!
A diphthong is a sound made by combining two vowels, specifically when it starts as one vowel sound and goes to another, like the oy sound in oil.
Diphthong comes from the Greek word ’diphthongos’ which means “having two sounds.”
Diphthongs can be tricky (difficult) sounds to master for non-native speakers of English. Your mouth will move position as you produce the sounds. Many students find diphthongs difficult because producing them is a “motor skill” which has to be practiced again and again in order to get a good result. The main diphthong sounds in British English are:
