VOICED of VOICELESS

consonants (medeklinkers)

downloads.bbc.co.uk

Some consonant sounds are voiced and some are voiceless. A voiceless sound is one that just uses air to make the sound and not the voice.

You can tell if a sound is voiced or not by putting your hand gently on your throat. When you say a sound, if you can feel a vibration it is a voiced sound.

Voicing is important because sometimes it's the only difference in the pronunciation of two very different words, such as 'bet' and 'pet'.

Bet /bet/ - the /b/ sound is voiced.

Pet /pet/ - the /p/ sound is voiceless.

past simple OR past continuous
