Irregular verbs again!

The Spanish educational system gives too much importance to the printed letter. Consequently, when we learn a foreign language we sometimes show a tendency to simplify pronunciation issues and, if in doubt, we pronounce new words as we would do in Spanish.

It is always a good idea to make sure what the right pronunciation of a new word is.

Talking of pronunciation, when learning irregular verbs we are more than happy if we can remember the spelling of the verbs, but we neglect their pronunciation, which can lead to serious communication problems. This video can help us learn how to pronounce irregular verbs in English.
