For today we are going to talk about 

 Pronunciation the (-or) sound

Part 1: -or sound

Explanation (1)

Words that have the same vowels and vowel combinations are not always pronounced in the same way.

For example: ‘door’ and ‘book’. 

Explanation (2)

Some words can also be spelt completely different, but they are pronounced the same. 

For example:

• Bored
• Board

Explanation (3)

The English [or]-sound is similar to the Dutch vowel sound at the beginning of the word ‘oor’. 

The sound can be spelt in the following ways:

• War
• For
• Poor
• Core
• Ought
• Taught
• Paw

But watch out: In formal British English the ‘r’ often is silent, unless it is followed by a vowel.

Are there any questions?

Exercise!

1. Open up a Word-document

2. Copy the following words into your word document -->

3. Tell me if the following words have a -or sound or another sound.

The list:

1. Dawn
2. Soar
3. Drove
4. Yawning
5. Naughty
6. Australia
7. Flaw
8. Jaw
9. Lore
10. Logical

Time for a challenge!

1. Team up with a partner.

2. Look at the following story.

3. Each turn you are going to read the story.

4. During the story you listen if your speaking partner uses the right -or sound.

5. After that you switch turns.

Don't forget to give eachother feedback--> GOOD JOB !
