Consonant Sound Pair /p, b/

Saturday, February 8, 2020 by Eva Easton 11 Comments

Consonant sounds can be voiced or voiceless.
In this lesson we practice consonant sound pair /p, b/.
At the beginning of a word, /p/ has a strong puff of air.
At the end of a word, /p/ does not have a puff of air.


Now it’s your turn.
Here’s your audio pronunciation quiz.
Listen carefully for the puff of air.
Do you hear the /p/ or /b/ word?
