Today we're learning four new words: SOURCEIDENTIFY, SPECIFIC, and EVIDENT. And we're looking at the different ways these words are used  in various situations. For each word, you'll get the definition, we'll go over the pronunciationyou'll get to see it up close and in slow motion, and then we'll also have five  examples from real life English.

Our first word today is SOURCE. You'll see  this in IPA written two different ways, but the R does change the AW as in law sound.

Also the OH diphthong, so there aren't really  two different ways to say this word. Source.

Source. When the AW as in law is followed by  R, the lips round a little bit more and the tongue shifts back a little bit moreso it's not a pure law, aw, aw, saw-- source. But it's so-- oh, oh, so-- source.

Source. As a noun, it means someone or something  that provides what is wanted or needed.

The cause of something, such as a problemShe's been a great source of strength to me.

Let's look again at the pronunciation  up close and in slow motion.
