P45.pronunciation-drills.04 · Audience: guest, language-pro, it-ml · Prerequisites: Sound drill: closed é versus open è
Unité PO-06 · campagne 4 · blanc et blond.
Two nasals to keep apart: blanc /ɑ̃/ (open) and blond /ɔ̃/ (rounded). The vowel itself carries the nasality — do not sound the n. Record the models and listen for a leaked consonant.
Say: Un bon vin blanc.
Say: Les enfants regardent un long film.
