The two types of "that" - when and how to pronounce them
The word "that" is a super common word, yet many English learners stress it incorrectly, especially if their native tongue is a language with a rhythm that's different from English's. Speakers of syllable-timed languages such as Spanish, French, Polish, Chinese languages, and other East Asian languages, will pronounce it as the full version but it is often pronounced as a reduced version. In this episode we will explore how the two versions of this super common word are pronounced, when to use them, as well as some tips to remember when each version should be used.
