Pronunciation focus for Malayalam speakers
Malayalam speakers often add a 'y' glide before front vowels and a 'w' glide before back vowels ('yegg', 'wonly'), voice stops after nasals ('kambuter' for 'computer'), and merge /v/ and /w/. These are very teachable with minimal-pair practice.
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.
