Teaching Saudi Arabian students to pronounce �p � sound in English
|

Hi all,
I wanted some advice on how you would get Saudi Arabian students in the habit of pronouncing the letter -p- sound in English. In Arabic, they don�t have the -p- sound and pronounce it with their letter in Arabic ب (ba)/the -b- sound in English. There are actually many words in English that the Saudi Arabian community uses in general Arabic not formal Arabic, so when it comes to the -p-, they substitute it with -b- like the fizzy drink/soft drink/soda -Pepsi-, they would say بيبسي -Bebsi-. |

Hi! Koreans have a similar problem. They don�t have the -f- sound so they often use the -p- sound. Instead of wife some may say wipe, fork will be pork, and beef will sound like beep. YouTube has lots of good pronunciation videos if you search for how to pronounce B and P. I�ve used Rachel�s English videos a lot.
Coach Shane is good, too.
