Hello
and
welcome
to
Six
Minute
Vocabulary
with
me
,
and
me
,
Catherine
.
And
today
we're
talking
about
how
to
pronounce
words
that
begin
with
the
letter
.
We'll
look
at
lots
of
examples
.
We'll
give
you
a
quiz
and
we'll
leave
you
with
a
top
tip
for
,
remember
,
a
new
English
words
.
So
to
start
off
,
let's
listen
to
Maria
.
She
works
in
a
circus
now
.
Do
you
like
circuses
,
?
When
I
was
a
kid
,
I
think
I
wanted
to
join
a
circus
.
These
days
,
I'm
not
so
sure
performing
animals
are
not
my
thing
,
really
.
Okay
,
well
,
Maria
is
a
circus
performer
.
She's
not
an
animal
.
And
we're
going
to
hear
her
talking
about
how
she
started
in
the
job
.
And
here's
a
question
to
think
about
while
you
listen
.
What
didn't
Maria
do
at
weekends
?
Here
she
is
.
I
started
performing
in
my
family
circus
when
I
was
nine
years
old
.
I
loved
it
at
the
.
Me
and
my
sisters
didn't
go
to
cyber
cafes
or
the
cinema
or
hang
around
the
park
smoking
cigarettes
.
Like
other
teenagers
.
We
practiced
performing
.
I
celebrated
my
16th
birthday
by
learning
to
ride
a
cycle
that
was
only
20
centimetres
high
.
My
brother's
bike
was
so
high
it
reached
the
ceiling
.
So
Maria
had
an
interesting
childhood
,
didn't
she
?
And
we
asked
you
what
didn't
she
do
?
Weekends
.
And
the
answer
is
she
didn't
go
to
the
park
or
the
cinema
.
Like
other
kids
know
,
she
practiced
performing
.
And
cinema
is
an
important
word
in
the
show
today
because
we
spell
it
with
a
letter
C
,
but
we
pronounce
it
with
a
sound
so
we
don't
say
.
It's
cinema
.
A
lot
of
words
that
start
with
the
letter
C
all
pronounced
with
a
sound
like
kac
crime
.
Count
my
name
Katherine
.
Lots
of
them
.
But
most
words
that
start
with
the
letters
c
i
r
pronounced
with
a
sound
words
like
cinema
cigarette
circus
.
That's
rule
one
.
Now
listen
again
.
I
started
performing
in
my
family
circus
when
I
was
nine
years
old
.
I
loved
it
at
the
weekend
.
Me
and
my
sisters
didn't
go
to
cyber
cafes
or
the
cinema
or
hang
around
the
park
smoking
cigarettes
like
other
teenagers
.
Good
.
Now
let's
see
how
we
pronounce
words
that
start
with
the
letters
c
e
.
Listen
to
this
clip
and
see
if
you
can
spot
those
words
.
I
celebrated
my
16th
birthday
by
learning
to
ride
a
cycle
that
was
only
twenty
centimeters
high
.
My
brother's
bike
was
so
high
it
reached
the
ceiling
.
So
we
have
three
C
words
there
and
they
were
all
pronounced
with
a
sound
.
We
had
celebrate
centimeter
and
ceiling
and
that's
our
second
rule
.
And
perhaps
you
spotted
our
third
rule
in
that
last
clip
.
Yes
,
well
done
.
If
you've
already
noticed
that
words
like
cycle
and
cybercafe
are
pronounced
with
a
sound
,
even
though
they
are
spelled
with
C
,
Y
,
and
here's
the
whole
clip
again
.
I
started
performing
in
my
family
circus
when
I
was
nine
years
old
.
I
loved
it
at
the
weekends
.
Me
and
my
sisters
didn't
go
to
cyber

or
the

or
hang

like
other
teenagers
.
We
practiced
performing
.
I
celebrated
my
16th
birthday
by
learning
to
ride
a

that
was
only

My

And
we're
talking
about
how
to
spell

that
begin

a
sound

When
a
word
starts
with
the
letters
C
,
E

And

At

Number

gone
to
the
cinema

but

.
Right

There
were

time

OK

beginning
with
the
letter
C
crazy
coloured
circus
clowns
create
chaos
,
cinema
circles
and
congratulations

All

that's
the
end
of
the
quiz
