"Now before we move on to our next vowel change that we want to learn, I need to teach you something called voiced and voiceless sounds. And you may know what this is, maybe you won't, but I'm going to refer back to this in the next clip. Voiced consonants are consonants where you hear the sound like d, dog. You hear the sound, you feel the sound. Goat, ga, goat. Car, ca, it is a voiced sound. Your voiceless consonants are consonants where there is not so much sound. Examples would be s-s-s, snake, the, thank you. It?s ultimately the difference in vibration da versus air. The, thank you, and it's real important to know the difference between voiced and voiceless, because we're going to start getting into some rules, where you do one thing before a voiced consonant, and you do another thing different before a voiceless consonant."
