this was really fun! i loved it!
ReplyDeletei really liked how in step 1 they had a computer model but then had a person saying the same thing. Also the different angels were very helpful. I also like how they had the silent model because it made you say it to yourself and see which one it was.
ReplyDeleteI really liked this assignment and found it interesting to see how the mouth moves when pronouncing vowels. It was not a hard assignment, but I though it was helpful and a good switch from regular assignments. i enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteThe activity was not extremely easy but not hard either. I really enjoyed it because it helped me pronounce words. But I still sound very white.
ReplyDeleteI liked this exercise because I felt that it really helped me grasp a physical aspect of the pronunciation of vowels in Spanish.
ReplyDeleteBeing able to see the way the persons mouth moves when they say the vowels really helped me understand how the sounds should be made. It was interesting because when I just saw the mouth move without sound I could guess the word although when I heard the sound without seeing the mouth it was hard for me to tell what vowel was being said.
ReplyDeleteit was fun watching the peoples mouths and trying to act it out. it really helped with really accenting those different vowel sounds.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed doing this activity. I feel that i learned a lot about vowel sounds and how to pronounce them. It was fun and a different, beneficial way of learning!
ReplyDeleteThese activities were very helpful. It is good to see demonstrations on how words are suppose to be pronounced. It is also good to see the common mistakes that most people run into when speaking the language. All in all it was very helpful!
ReplyDeleteThis assignment was very interesting and helpful in pronouncing words better.
ReplyDeleteI liked the video clips of the mouth pronouncing A E I O U it really helped me out.
ReplyDeleteThis was very helpful. I learned new ways to pronounce words in a way that was unknown to me. It was also fun and interactive.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this exercise because it allowed me to practice spanish in the comfort of my own dorm. Also, seeing the physical mouth movements of each vowel sound allowed me to pronounce my own spanish vowels more precisely.
ReplyDeletethis assignment was fun an very helpful on seeying how to pronounce words in spanish.
ReplyDeleteIt helped watching the people's mouths from all angles and watching the videos without sound then having to select which word they were saying. The more I practice the more I should be able to pronounce certain words better. I got it done regardless of my internet connection being lost for three days.
ReplyDeleteThe video clips of the mouth pronouncing A E I O U helped me understand how to speak more properly and watching the clips without sound helped me memorize it.
ReplyDeleteI really didn't think I was gong to be able to read people's lips, but when I was doing that module I was surprised. This may have been because in Spanish there is a much greater definition of vowels, where in english they can at times blend together and look the same. This helped me realize how the mouth is supposed to move when you're pronouncing words in Spanish, as opposed to English.
ReplyDeleteThis was very helpful, I really enjoyed it. It helped me a lot with pronouncing the words.
ReplyDeleteThe video clips help me out a lot, and the video clips help me with the the pronouncing the A E O I U.
