47、Vowel sounds are made by slightly changing the Size,Shape and the Tension of themuscle in your mouth,your tongue and your lips.A small change can produce anentirely different sound.Instead of giving you diagrams of tongue placement-howround your lips should be or how far you should open your mouth.I

48、 believe the bestway to learn American vowels is by Ear Training.Listen carefully and repeat.To help teach you the American vowel sounds,I ll separate them to two groups:front vowels and back vowels.When your tongue rises up in the front,it s a frontvowel.When your tongue rises up in the back,it s a
