Pronouncing the letters of the alphabet in English can be challenging. When we start with A and say the letters in order, we may be correct, but when we have to spell something using the letters, it is more difficult. Use the video above to refresh your memory on the sounds in the pronunciation of the letters, then use the techniques below to practice things you commonly need to spell.
Practice Tip:
Think of what you typically need to spell, and write out the pronunciation of the letters in order. Practice spelling out your name, street address, company name or other information you typically give out. For additional help with being clear while spelling over the phone, check out this lesson.
Examples:
If your name is Rajesh, write the following:
are, ay, jay, ee, ess, aych
If your last name is Rodriguez, write it out like this:
are, oh, dee, are, eye, gee, you, ee, zee
If you live on Palatine Road, write it as:
pee, ay, ell, ay, tee, eye, enn, ee
