How can you make the difference when pronouncing the words battle and bottle?
Let me show you – my mouth is a little rounder with the “o” sound in “bottle.”
Try it with me – baaaattle, boooottle.
Some other pairs of words that have this difference are:
- hat / hot
- lack / lock
- map / mop
Let me know if you have any more pronunciation questions and I’ll be happy to answer them!
