In this short British English pronunciation lesson, I will help you to learn 5 ways to pronounce the letters E and A when they come together as 'EA'. If you practice the words and example sentences in this video it will really help with your English pronunciation. Think of words like read and dead and heard and near. They all have the letters EA in them, but each time, we pronounce the letters EA differently. Unfortunately there aren't many consistent rules in English to help students know how to pronounce these letters when they appear in a word (for example even the word 'read' can be pronounced riːd or rɛd) so my advice is to learn each new word separately and make sure you listen to a native speaker or use an online dictionary to check the pronunciation. 00:00 Intro 00:35 EA as ɪə 01:43 EA as eə 02:29 EA as ɜː 03:25 EA as i: 04:17 EA as ɛ ----------------------------------------------------------------
