alyana

sebutan what tu sebenarnya WHAT (mcm sebut watts)

ke atau


waert ( ada bau2 huruf E sikit) ?

Muntz

What.. "H" tu kena bunyi sikit jer antara W dgn -at. Tapi dalam nyanyian, tak perlu sangat rasanya.

alyana

muntz, yg lagu With You - Chris Brown tu,

Said There's HEart.

napa i dgr mcm "Der Hat"

betul ke ?

Muntz

Entah ler nok... kengkadang sesuka hati diorang sajork. Kalau aku nyanyi, mmg aku sebut "there's".

alyana

Word        =     kat telinga i
1. Boo     =    bu  (mcm ibu)
2. what   = waet  (mcm but ke baet )
3. the =  t(ch)e    ( bunyi cheh )

uols, kalau ade sentuh2 pasal diction letak sini hoccay. biar tersusun ekosistem kita

Actually it depends on what kind of song u're singing. But normally with R&B song, diction will be a bit different than the standard pop English song.

What... the letter "t" must be clear and crisp enough for the listeners to listen to. Don't pronounce it as Whad or wod... it's sometimes OK to pronounce as Whad.. but not all the time.

Boo... mm.. hard to say, but don't be too straight-forward like "ibu". Some breath control is needed to get that crispier and clearer and more accurate sound of "boo".

The... in standard sentence.. should pronounce "the" clearly with your tongue gripped close at your teeth, while blowing some smelly breath of yours in between them. Don't be too lazy to pronounce it as "der" or "ter". This is the most common diction problem among Malays.

"Stunna" in "stunner" is not diction thingy.. but slang thingy. In R&B song, u can't sing like Latino singing English song. You should pronounce it like nigger. The more nigger, the better. Hehe. For beginner, try not to stress "R" for word like "stunner", "figure".. it sounds too "white" or "snowy" gituh.

When u have improved your diction, u can crawl slowly singing with slang.. then, u can try singing with accent.. then, for experts, u can try singing with attitude, babeh. Play with your tongue, tips of your lips, nasal vocal, smelly breath...
