Today, we’re diving into an exciting and educational pronunciation practice where you’ll learn the names of all 50 U.S. state capitals! But we’re not stopping there—this lesson will also include one fun fact about each state, so you’ll walk away with the correct pronunciation and with a few fun tidbits to impress your friends. For this episode, we recommend shadowing. Shadowing is when you listen carefully to a word or phrase and immediately repeat it out loud, mimicking the speaker as closely as possible. It’s an excellent way to improve pronunciation, rhythm, and intonation! As you follow along, listen to the pronunciation of each capital, repeat it after me, and pay attention to the flow of the word. Let’s practice together, state by state, and have some fun along the way. Ready? Let’s get started! //IMPORTANT LINKS// Read the Transcript: https://americanenglishpodcast.com/177-pronunciation-50-us-state-capitals/ Get all Premium Content for Season 4: https://bit.ly/3rF36k4 All Premium Content for Seasons 1, 2 and 3: https://bit.ly/44822TQ Learn more about your ad choices.
