The only way to correctly pronounce all of the following English words is with a Scotch snap – “uncle, pretty, basic, running, jumping, hitting, Peter, Phillip, David, English, Scottish, Irish,” etc. The vast majority of two-syllable words in the English language require a Scotch snap for correct pronunciation.

The Scotch snap, as suggested by its name, originates from Scotland and thus is a unique rhythmic characteristic of Scottish music. It is a short-long rhythmic structure, or in other words the preceding note should be of a shorter note value.

After listening to it, and when you are ready, press play again and either play along (note E) or clap the rhythm.

Scotch is an adjective in English, meaning "of or from Scotland". Many Scots dislike the term Scotch and some consider it offensive.
