Today, let’s talk about another small word that changes in natural American English: our.
In everyday conversational English, this word is pronounced like: “are”
Our house is on the corner. Our house
Our dog is noisy. Our dog
Our friends are coming over.
Our teacher is late.

Our house is brown
Our dog is noisy.
Our car is in the driveway
