ok, this is what happens. when i say the word really, it fels as ii am pronouncing the l corrrectly. but here's the problem. when i record myself say it, and just listen casually, it comes out like "reawy"
but, when i DO listen carefully, it sounds right....so am i saying it right or wrong???
i always had trouble with that word, but i've been noticing i keep hearing really as "reawy" these days, even if someone else is saying it. i don't know whats going on! this has never hapened to me before! i cant distinguish between "Reawy" and "really".
when i listen closely, i hear the l.
if not, i hear it as "Reawy"
someone help! am i saying it right or not?
also, when i say the word "really" in a senetencce, eg: that's a really old song" i dont hear anything wrong. \
but when i say just the word alone, as "Really?!"
i have to listen carefully to hear the l sound! otherwise it sounds like "reawy"
what should i do? and can you send me a video of someone saying "really" if its not too much a hassle? thanks!
 
It's not you. It's what we hear by nature. Since we are the ones actually using our vocal cords saying the word it sounds different to us than it does to other people. That's why we sound different when we record ourselves.
