Hey there! When I listen to native speaker, they don't utter the /k/ sound when saying the word 'BOX'. Do they cut the airflow and then make the s sound without releasing the /K/ sound?
I was told to move my back of the tongue to the soft palate, and then make the s sound without moving my tongue. How do you know if you make the /g/ sound instead of /k/ sound? As you know, both two sounds are in the same position.
Well, for example the word 'back's' and 'bags'. If I told not to release the /g/ or /k/ sound after sayin the BA sound, how do I distinguish if I make the /g/ or /k/ sound?
