Wait... Originally the word gray/grey was græg so it should be pronounced græy.. but we say it in America like the name Ray. I'm so confused. Also you're cute 🥺

Is there a picture dictionary that pronounces like you and shows the shape along with phonetics? Can you introduce it to me? I don't mean a book. I need a YouTube channel or a site that shows someone pronouncing a word and I can look at their face and mouth while pronouncing it, and the spelling of the word is written in subtitles along with the image of the word?🙏

I was hoping for clarity about the name of æ and how it's pronouned. Short A sound doesn't seem correct. E.g. Encyclopædia. Which is clearly an E sound. Edit: Yes you are correct in one interpretation but this seems like a rabbithole where it has at least 2 pronounciations. It seems to be called Ash.
