If you can’t hear English around you every day, knowing how to say new words can be very difficult! There are so many words that begin with C in English, but it’s hard to know if the C makes a sound like an S or a K. I am very excited to have figured out HOW you can know which sound the C makes! Watch this video to learn the trick and start pronouncing words correctly.
Thanks a lot Ronnie, Thais is useful lesson for everyone non-native speaker.
Ukrit
Hi Ukrit. For those like me who speak Spanish, this lesson is kind of easy because the same phenomenon occurs in our language.
Juan Jose Toro
And also in Portuguese.
calpe
and also in italian! :)

jaison
She is Ronnie. She is as good Teacher as Rebeca
Juan Jose Toro
thanks ronnie, what about the c word followed by consonant? ex: clash, change
anndya
Anndya, those words have different sounds:
Change: /tʃeɪndʒ/
Clash: /klæʃ/
These sounds aren’t exactly “C” or “S” sounds. Remember about Minimal pairs.

how “c” sounds in Caribbean?
“s” or “k”
neeraj.punia1
This word sound like “k”. :) I think.. (:/
bielbuta
of course K.
kareebian
jaison
C followed by a, o and u sound as K. karibbean?
Juan Jose Toro
correction: Sounds as K. Notice that letter C is third person of the singular (It) so we are to add the letter S to the verb: It sounds as K.
Juan Jose Toro
of course “k”
Djellza
great lesson Ronnie
Luke
Hey Ronnie, thanks for the lesson. It is quite helpful indeed. When you were explaining “cyber” word, I realized I couldn’t decide how to read “y” sound. Like saybee or siber? Or bicycle and cycle could be another example. I hope I could explain what I mean.
satine
Like the “y” in “cycle”!

yeah Satine it’s really helpful .

MariaASanz

fgielts
interesting))))))))
Ksenya Rybalko
Facade. In this word de c sounds like a s. This words are the exception to the rules. The facade of the house.
Jorge Pedroso
Indeed. Probably it’s a word derived from another language.

:)
Thank you :)
Faris
why chemistry sound like k not s or sh
Sayed Emad
The letter combination ch has three distinct sounds:
1. The most usual is the way it is pronounced in words like:
chair, check, chicken, chop, chuckle
much, rich, such
2. However, in words taken into English from Greek ch- sounds like k:
character chemist, chorus, etc.
ache, echo, school, etc.
Hello Ronnie. It has been a very clear and interesting lesson. Thank you so much

Ms.Roonie you are great teacher..This lesson is pretty interesting…I mostly pronunce the words correctly in India because words are familiar in India. .We have car from from Honda company called Honda city..so most words are familiar..but I wasn’t unware of these words follow these much rules and patterns..really helpful and thought provoking….Thank you for using new words cilantro .I learnt weed,turnip reefer in your earlier lessons..cynical ,cymbal..New vocabulary learnt from this lesson as well…Thanks a ton I’m going to complete beginner lesson within this month….I need a lesson how they use word ” meet ” in English.
Example: you don’t meet the requirement for this position
In this lesson I watched keenly ms.roonie says “coast is the area in which the land meets the ocean….”how to use meet and want some explanation when to use the word in different context…

But there’s a controversy, because the word “cello” is pronounced differently…
Is it possible to explain it to us?
Rene Pina
Yes! “Cello” is borrowed from Italian and follows Italian pronunciation, which is why you say it “chello”. Confusingly, the “cello” in “cellophane” is pronounced “sello”.

Why 8. Does the SECOND ‘c’ in the following word sound like a ‘k’ or an ‘s’? “cycle”
why the second “c” is “K” sound ? I don’t understand.
bobowiez
Because before consonants (b, c, d, f, g, h, j, k, l, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, v, w, x, z) ‘c’ sounds like ‘k’.
Sergei Ter-Tumasov
My tip is just keep in mind AOU and the rest will be sound diferent from K

this is ms.Ronnie
She is Ronnie. She is as good Teacher as Rebeca
thanks ronnie, what about the c word followed by consonant? ex: clash, change
Anndya, those words have different sounds:
Change: /tʃeɪndʒ/
Clash: /klæʃ/
These sounds aren’t exactly “C” or “S” sounds. Remember about Minimal pairs.
thank Ronnie very much
thank you teacher .i love the way you teach .
Very interesting.
Thanks.
Thank you so much Ronny… Very interesting…

how “c” sounds in Caribbean?
“s” or “k”
This word sound like “k”. :) I think.. (:/
of course K.
kareebian
C followed by a, o and u sound as K. karibbean?
correction: Sounds as K. Notice that letter C is third person of the singular (It) so we are to add the letter S to the verb: It sounds as K.
of course “k”
great lesson Ronnie
Hey Ronnie, thanks for the lesson. It is quite helpful indeed. When you were explaining “cyber” word, I realized I couldn’t decide how to read “y” sound. Like saybee or siber? Or bicycle and cycle could be another example. I hope I could explain what I mean.
Like the “y” in “cycle”!
yeah Satine it’s really helpful .
Please don’t put your cock in your foot.
Merely EPIC!!

Hi! dear ronnie
wowwww what a nice lesson. thank you, I really like the way you teaching us pronunciation because we also learn vocabulary. may god bless you and your family take care of you
thank you alot >>> but facade : s or k ??
Facade:/fəˈsɑd, fæ-/
the sound is “S”
tha`s great and very usefull, thanks a lot
interesting))))))))
Facade. In this word de c sounds like a s. This words are the exception to the rules. The facade of the house.
Indeed. Probably it’s a word derived from another language.

why chemistry sound like k not s or sh
The letter combination ch has three distinct sounds:
1. The most usual is the way it is pronounced in words like:
chair, check, chicken, chop, chuckle
much, rich, such
2. However, in words taken into English from Greek ch- sounds like k:
character chemist, chorus, etc.
ache, echo, school, etc.
mote information here:http://www.literacytools.ie/files/pdfs/CH%20sound.pdf
Chemistry: /ˈkɛm ə stri/
Hello Ronnie. It has been a very clear and interesting lesson. Thank you so much

Ms.Roonie you are great teacher..This lesson is pretty interesting…I mostly pronunce the words correctly in India because words are familiar in India. .We have car from from Honda company called Honda city..so most words are familiar..but I wasn’t unware of these words follow these much rules and patterns..really helpful and thought provoking….Thank you for using new words cilantro .I learnt weed,turnip reefer in your earlier lessons..cynical ,cymbal..New vocabulary learnt from this lesson as well…Thanks a ton I’m going to complete beginner lesson within this month….I need a lesson how they use word ” meet ” in English.
Example: you don’t meet the requirement for this position
In this lesson I watched keenly ms.roonie says “coast is the area in which the land meets the ocean….”how to use meet and want some explanation when to use the word in different context…

Thank you Ronnie. This lesson is very impossible for me. Now it seems very simple for me. Thank you very much.
9%10 wow
But there’s a controversy, because the word “cello” is pronounced differently…
Is it possible to explain it to us?
Yes! “Cello” is borrowed from Italian and follows Italian pronunciation, which is why you say it “chello”. Confusingly, the “cello” in “cellophane” is pronounced “sello”.
Thanks Ronnie. Great lesson
thanks Ronnie great can you give me guidence how to speak well these sentences

Why 8. Does the SECOND ‘c’ in the following word sound like a ‘k’ or an ‘s’? “cycle”
why the second “c” is “K” sound ? I don’t understand.
Because before consonants (b, c, d, f, g, h, j, k, l, m, n, p, q, r, s, t, v, w, x, z) ‘c’ sounds like ‘k’.
My tip is just keep in mind AOU and the rest will be sound diferent from K
Ronni you are the best! thanks…
Thanks Ronnie, this lesson was very important for me.
ronni please could you help me with (Had to, was/were able to ,used to) and how to use them

Thank you so much. Love your lesson! ^^
In a sentence, Ronnie said “sounds like an S” is it correct? It sounds familiar with as well, but I couldn’t find letter S should be used by article “an”. Pls let me know which one is right. Thank you in advance.
