00:00Hi there. This is the sound, as in the words place, play and pay.
00:14It's a sound from the consonant pairs group. It's called the voiceless bilabial stop.
00:22This means that you use both of your lips to block your mouth.
00:27The sound is made through the mouth and it's unvoiced, which means that you don't use your vocal chords to make the sound.
00:37It's defined by the shape of your lips and the motion of air flow through your mouth.
00:44It's a stop sound which means it's a sound made by building up air pressure by stopping air flow and then releasing it.
00:53In this case, you use both of your lips to form the stop and then release.
00:59To produce the sound, bring both of your lips together and build up some pressure in your mouth and then release it.
01:07The sound is normally spelled with the letter p, as in the words problem, part, company and power.
01:29Here are some words that begin with the sound.
01:35Program, provide, potato, point.
01:47Here are some words with the sound in the middle.
01:53Happen
01:55People
