Michelle revised

The IPA transcription for Michelle is...The first syllable of Michelle has the onset of voiced, bilabia nasal, with a rhyme of a mid,central vowel, "ma." The next syllable's onset is a voiceless palatal fricatives with the rhythm of a mid front vowel "ch." The last syllable has an onset of voiced alveolar nasal "l" with a mid-central vowel. In order to pronounce Michelle...start by making a nasal "hmmm"...put your lips together and let out an "uh" sound followed quickly by a sh using your dentals (teeth) and then an (l) using your nasal breathing out.
