Happy National Schwa Day! πŸŽ‰
The schwa sound (uh) is the most common sound in English. It is soft, quick, and found in many words we say every day.
Example:
about β†’ uh-BOUT
For tutors: This is a great day to practice listening and speaking with your learners.
For learners: You are probably already using schwa, you just didn’t know the name! 😊
Keep learning, keep practicing, and listen for that little β€œuh” sound!
