Importance of voiced and voiceless sounds

Before we go over the importance of the voiced and voiceless sounds, we need to understand
what these are and how to identify them. The voiced sounds are those that use our vocal cords
to make the sound, the voiceless do not use the vocal cord. We can identify if the word or letter
we are pronouncing is voiced or voiceless by putting our hands on the throat and feeling the
vibration, based on many English courses searched.

These are important because sometimes the sound is the only thing that will help us to take a
part one word from another and this would help us to understand a word without the context or
using a synonymous for a better explanation.

Non-native speakers usually omit the voiced sounds because regularly we are not taught to
pronounce the words correctly, the language outside of the US is normally learned informally,
people learn it from music videos, movies or by talking with a foreign when having the chance.
