This page contains the following:
  • A vowel chart showing the difference in tongue position for the two vowels
  • A recording comparing the two sounds in real English words (press the "download" button to save it offline).
  • The list of the English words in the recording (in order).

If I directed you to this page, be sure to spend to listen to this recording and mimic it as many times as you can and wait 24 hours before you re-submit.  The more you listen and rest, the more you will be able to tune this vowel.
