The Long and Short U sounds

Teacher Aurelia looks at the two basic types of the ‘U’ sound.
Even though a word may be spelled with ‘oo’, it may be pronounced
in different ways. For example, short - book and long -
food. 


Pronunciation is an important aspect in gaining fluency in
English so it is worth taking a look at these sounds,
understanding the differences  and mastering them.
