How to pronounce /ɔː/ (law, saw, ought)

In this video we look at the vowel sound /ɔː/ in British English. Find out how to pronounce law, saw, more, and ought. I sometimes nickname this sound the "cute sound" or even the "sad sound" (the symbol also looks a little sad too!) to help my students remember how to pronounce it.

// IMPORTANT Any links containing http://amzn.to are affiliate links and I earn commission through these links. I teach using just one of many accents in the world. Please only learn it if you like it and if you are interested in learning it. I do not believe there is one “correct” accent or manner of pronunciation and I fully encourage EFL/ESL learners to expose themselves to as many varieties of English around the world to become accustomed to the beautiful variations of this world language. I focus mostly on teaching “Modern RP” (I may just say “RP” in my older videos, but to clarify, I do specifically mean “Modern RP”), however, you will hear a lovely little Yorkshire twang to my accent from time to time too. Please LOVE and BE PROUD of your accent. After all, it is part of your identity and makes you unique. 💚 #englishpronunciation #englishteacher #englishlesson
