¿Qué son los fonemas casi vocales?
Los fonemas consonantes juegan un papel crucial en la pronunciación del inglés. Entender estos sonidos y dominar su producción puede marcar una gran diferencia en tu habilidad para comunicarte claramente. Estos fonemas son conocidos como semivowels o casi vocales debido a su semejanza con los sonidos vocálicos en su producción y sonido. Se producen con un flujo de aire similar al de las vocales y siempre aparecen antes de una vocal. Entre ellos se encuentran los sonidos /w/, /j/ y /h/.
¿Cómo se produce el sonido /w/?
El sonido /w/ es uno de los casi vocales más interesantes. Su producción implica la participación de los labios, que se adelantan y se redondean al inicio, seguido de una relajación. Este sonido comparte características con el sonido vocálico largo /uː/ como en la palabra goose. Puedes sentir la vibración del sonido /w/ colocando tu mano en tu manzana de Adán mientras pronuncias palabras como wake, where, what y when. Al comenzar, no temas exagerar el redondeo de los labios. Con el tiempo, será algo natural.
¿Cómo se realiza el sonido /j/?
El sonido /j/, como en la palabra yes, se forma cuando la parte anterior de la lengua está cerca del paladar duro, y luego desciende ligeramente junto con la mandíbula. Este sonido también es sonoro, lo que significa que puedes sentir la vibración en tu garganta. Ejemplos de palabras que contienen este sonido son: you, university, used y years. Aunque en algunas palabras no aparece en la escritura, acompaña al sonido /ju:/, como en university y used.
¿Cómo funcionan los sonidos afónicamente como el /h/?
El sonido /h/ es único porque es afónico, lo que significa que tus cuerdas vocales no vibran cuando lo produces. Se genera con la glotis, comenzando con una fuerte corriente de aire que produce fricción a lo largo del tracto vocal. Al pronunciarlo, ya estás preparando tu boca para el sonido vocálico que sigue, como en how. Palabras útiles para practicar este sonido son: who, hair, hurry y hat.
Práctica de reconocimiento de sonidos
Reconocer qué palabra no incluye un sonido específico es una excelente manera de mejorar tu conocimiento sobre los fonemas casi vocales. Por ejemplo, en las siguientes listas, identifica cuál palabra no contiene el sonido /h/, /w/ o /j/:
- Sonido /h/: how, happy, honest, behave. La palabra incorrecta es honest.
- Sonido /w/: water, whale, window, who. La palabra incorrecta es who.
- Sonido /j/: year, enjoy, yellow, uniform. La palabra incorrecta es enjoy.
Consejos para mejorar tu pronunciación
Te recomendamos utilizar un espejo cuando practiques estos sonidos, de modo que puedas ver los movimientos de tus labios y lengua. Además, es crucial prestar atención a la posición de tu boca y glotis. También puedes grabarte leyendo palabras o frases con estos sonidos y comparar tus grabaciones con las pronunciaciones correctas.
Finalmente, ¡la práctica constante es clave! Completa ejercicios como los propuestos en el material complementario descargable. Estos te permitirán consolidar el conocimiento sobre los sonidos /w/, /j/ y /h/. Comparte tus resultados y avances con otros aprendices para recibir retroalimentación y seguir creciendo en tu dominio de la pronunciación en inglés. ¡Continúa perseverando y verás grandes mejoras!

My recording
sometimes the ¨h¨ is voiced or voiceless consonant…
Those are also called: semi-vowel and semi-consonant, dependends on the position for each sound before or after a consonant or a vowel.
