00:39Hi, my name's Ariana and we're here visiting Little Venice in London.
00:45Little Venice is a small village in the borough of Westminster
00:50where Regent's Canal meets Grand Junction Canal.
00:55So, can you guess what sound we're going to learn today?
01:00Exactly, the V sound.
01:30So, let's learn how to pronounce the V sound correctly.
01:44What I'd like you to do is keep your jaw slightly open, press your bottom lip lightly against the bottom of your top teeth like so
01:58and breathe the air out.
02:05Great work. Now let's do it a few more times together.
02:11Perfect. Well done.
02:41So, now let's try and pronounce some words that have the V sound within them.
02:51Why don't we start with Little Venice?

03:41Repeat after me, and we'll start off slowly.
03:46Vivian believes that minivans have a very good value.
03:51Well done, now let's try saying it a little bit faster.

04:21Vivian believes that minivans have a very good value.
04:25Well done, really good work.
04:34The v sound is very important and popular in the English language.
04:41We're now going to learn some word combinations that have the v sound within them.
04:47Let's start with the word have.
04:51We use the word have a lot.
04:53And one of the things it can mean is to own something.
04:57For example, I have a mobile phone.
05:02Another way we use the word have is when saying, I have got to, or I have to, and these mean the same thing.
05:24And it's used when something is necessary or something is necessary to do.
05:33An example of this is boats have to be filled with fuel in order to move.
05:41Have got to, have got to, have got to, have got to.
05:43Have got to.
05:46Have got to.
05:51Another way you can say this is boats have got to be filled with fuel in order to move.
05:58Unfortunately, that's all we've got time for here in Little Venice in London.
06:20I hope I've helped you learn how to pronounce the v sound correctly.
06:26Look forward to seeing you next time. Bye!
06:56Bye!
06:57Bye!
06:58Bye!
