voiceless like,…<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">  </span>So what is it mean to
be voiced or voiceless?<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">  </span>Listen to this…<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">   </span>Now you can’t see the difference.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">  </span>You might be able to hear the
difference.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">  </span>But, you can definitely feel
the difference.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">  </span>Watch this… </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">When I make a voiced sound like /v/, my throat vibrates. Bur
when I make a voiceless sound, like /f/, it’s just air coming through my mouth.
<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>Now you can also hear if you put your
hands over your ears like this.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">  </span>When I
make a voiced sound, /v/, it vibrates in my ears and my throat.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">  </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Now why is it so important? Because in English sometimes the
only difference between a pair of words is one consonant voiced and the other consonant
is voiceless.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">  </span>For example, van, and
fan.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes">  </span>Now you can practice this some more
by watching the videos about voiced and voiceless consonants in the sounds of English
section. <span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span></p><p></p><p><br></p>
