Pronunciation focus for Kannada speakers
Kannada speakers often add a final 'u' to consonant-final words, merge /v/ and /w/, replace /z/ with 'j' and /f/ with 'p' in some words, and merge the vowels of 'cat' and 'bet'.
The Teaching Phonetics and Live Phonetics courses show you how to work on these features with your learners, and with your own pronunciation. See also what mother tongue influence is.
