Notebook — say it with the "nnn" sound!

The letter N makes the "nnn" sound, just like at the start of the word Notebook.

🔊 The Sound of Letter N

To make the N sound, put the tip of your tongue on the bumpy ridge just behind your top teeth and hum through your nose: 'nnnn'. Your mouth stays a little open. Like M, N is a sound you can hold, which makes blending words like n-e-t, net, easier.
