Tongue Twister of the Day

Here's a simple one for you...

//The Cat Sat on the Cop and Watched the Clock\\


English pronunciation can be difficult because sometimes the same letter can have a different sound!


For example:
The letter A in "Cat
has the same sound as these words:

At, Sat, Sad, Back, That and Cap


but

The letter A in "Watched"
has a different sound, like these words:

Wash, Walk, Talk, and yes, even
COP and CLOCK!


So,

When you say "Cat" and "At,"
Smile :) and feel it in your nose...

C-A-A-A-A-T


and

When you say "Cop," "Watched" and "Clock,"
Open your mouth, like you're at the Doctor's...


W-A-A-A-A-TCH-T


Have fun and good luck!!!!!
