Why are anglophones utterly incapable of this?
>>222898252of what?
>>222898281Using sounds they know very well how to make at the beginning of a word
>>222898252We use letter C for the "ts" sound, because letter C is kind of useless otherwise.
Because they are stupid Like how can they not say the p in pterodactyl but then say words like sixth
>>222898252they can't pronounce ps, gn, pn or similar either

>>222899153Do ESLs really pronounce words like "Ptolemy" and "pseudo" as "puh-tolemy" and "piss-eudo" in their languages?
>>222904515are you really incapable of saying pt and ps?
>>222904515>pronounce words like "pseudo" as "piss-eudo"No but I'm going to start doing that.
>>222898339I can do ts at the beginning of a word, but ng no...
>>222898252I don't get it. Tsunami ts and zeitgeist z are pronounced differently. Maybe you could think of a mnemonic to remember the difference if you're struggling.
