后来，你有没有进一步请教英国那位大师对此的意见？

比较普遍的规律是：/s/音前标有重读符号的多音节词或者没标但是单音节的，那三个音都是弱送气。/s/后用重读符号分隔开它们的，一般都是保留强送气。还有一些词，在不同词典有不同发音，有些词典例音保留强送气，有些则弱送气，对于这些词，我其实想找到那种音比较多人讲。一般词典，我暂时没找到有以sd、sg或者sb开头的单词（缩写不算），都是出现在单词的某些字母之间，估计是与/s/后的送气发音变化有关。个人意见是觉得这与发声变化的速度有关，语速极快时，可认为绝大情况都弱送气，语速慢时，保持原有的强送气，我估计不会产生误解，应该不算错……

I love your thorough study of pronunciation.

Hello 朱老師 可唔可以拍一啲IELTS嘅教學影片？小弟半年後應考😊☺️好似你拍DSE嗰啲咁

ChuLowC 真係好謙虛😅

I guess one of the reasons why HKEAA didn't explain what exactly the 'full range of strategies' are in detail was because communication strategies are things that you learn from daily life. They may be implying that you do not learn how to communicate from the process of preparing for this English speaking exam, but rather all the way along your secondary school life, from your day-to-day chat with your friends or teachers or parents. If that is what hkeaa is thinking, then of course they won't explain what is communication strategies, because it's not exactly sth you should be learning from here and they don't have the responsibility to explain that to candidates in this report. (My guess only, might not be true!!!) In my definition, having good communication strategies means that you should be able to radiate an energy that attracts people around u to be willing to talk with you (e.g. show up as a friendly member in the discussion, actively listen and respond to others, and be open to ideas suggested that are different from yours). For the situation of candidates fighting for the chance to initiate the discussion, I guess it is alright and understandable for examiners to see students speaking at the same time in the beginning, but what's not okay is candidates not willing to cede and allow others to speak, and in a worse situation, trying to drive other voices out by increasing their own speaking volume. That is a very unpolite act to do in a discussion and it shows that the candidate does not understand how to cooperate and cannot see the bigger picture. Instead, if a student decides to let others speak in order to build a more friendly communication atmosphere, that shows to the examiner that they are taking care of the whole group and discussion even if that means sacrificing benefits u might get in initiating the discussion. Maybe that's what we call 大將之風 in Chinese. That might leave a pretty good impression on the examiner. Anyways it's just my own opinion, good luck and add oil to everybody taking DSE English Speaking exam:)

Mr Chu 鍾情於British accent?;)

I shouted to my girlfriend “suck it off!”

在香港特首李家超的一次晚宴演講中，他提到湯家驊時使用了「青春期」（puberty）一詞，引發了一些誤解和批評。李家超在致辭中表示：「我祝賀Ronny的活力、承諾，更重要的是，他一直擁有的青春期。」這段話在社交媒體上引起了廣泛的討論，許多人認為這可能是語言上的誤用或誤解 事實上，湯家驊在之前的演講中曾使用過「青春期」這個詞來比喻他所領導的組織「民主思路」的成長過程，將其形容為從青少年期走向成熟的過程。李家超在演講中引用了湯家驊的這一比喻，以表示對他的尊重。湯家驊解釋說，他在演講中開玩笑地說「民主思路」已經從動蕩的青春期走向成熟，並準備好進一步發展。 Mr Tong used those words in his speech to explain the way forward to further develop his organisation Path of Democracy. CE [Chief Executive] quoted Mr. Tong’s words at the beginning of his speech as a gesture of respect to Mr. Tong. The words were made in （direct reference） to Mr. Tong’s words. 因此，李家超的「青春期」言論應被理解為對湯家驊原話的（引用），而不是錯誤使用詞語。

17:16 呢個係Initialism ！ PDA就係讀PDA呢三個英文字母。 Acronym 也是指首字母縮寫,但更嚴格地說,是那些可以作為單詞發音的縮寫詞,如 radar (radio detection and ranging) 讀作 ray-dar

I think that why other vocabularies put in the video above can just directly add "more" except for enormous, is because that other words are described for feelings or contains personal opinions, while "enormous" can be determined by the size, not an abstract or vague adjective, or by comparison, less. So you have to say "bigger", instead of more enormous, because if it's comparable, it's not at the peak point yet, and when we compare, we have to use the word "bigger", because we can actually see the objects is indeed, bigger, we cannot use the non-gradable term.

Also can I write “are old-schooled” in 22 (I)?

2017 vs 2023 crash car

Q16, (L1)生果係腸道嘅夥伴,（L2)香蕉係更加好嘅夥伴，咁（L2)所指嘅夥伴係咩？ 朱老師真係太唔小心啦😅

任何與本片無關、查詢其他年份(e.g. 2023)試題的留言，該考生將得到本人特別祝褔考Reading視網膜脫落，考Writing全個筆袋漏墨，考Listening耳機漏電起火，醫返都嘥藥費。

Thank u

helps a lot thanks!

延伸思考：近日巴黎奧運開幕禮被稱為最woke一屆，（anti-）Christian、abomination等本集提到的生字亦成為keywords。

15:49 hi 骰寶😺, 鍾意呢類型嘅片, 學英文之餘仲學到左右派之別

Thx 學到野！

Hello ChuLowC !!! I’ve been watching your reading videos since Form5, and I really want to say THANK YOU SO MUCH. Because of you, I got a 5* in reading in my 2024 DSE, and I got a 5* in general. Thank you so much for doing what you do, and I wish you all the best 😭😭❤

While China has winnie the poo

LMAO

Laugh my ass off

ha ha

朱老師可不可再拍多這一些reading 片😢很有用❤❤❤❤❤

how can I get the full video? Paying is ok.

我希望有一日ChuLowC 介紹一本好值得擁有嘅書，而該本書嘅作者係ChuLowC 你話有冇機會😊

嘩，好正呀！講解獨到又有趣😁ChuLowC 好少咁樣賣關子喎！好👍🏻我就去書局睇吓🌟🎉

我覺得only 有時長音未發晒就讀第二個字，我都係咁 😂😂😂😂 應該用左讀廣東話嘅方法來讀。

yt有個人話要爭首輪發言😂

可以send我的pronounciation給你評價下嗎😂，我一直讀中文中學，唔知發音點樣

hello 我係J同學本人🙈🙈 好多謝朱老師咁直接咁指出左我嘅問題 我會努力改善自己發音 各位如果有任何意見都可以comment 我全部都會睇晒 再一次唔該chulowc我會好好虛心學習🙇‍♂️

我練美國口音都有一段時間，我覺得我嘅英文就咁聽還算可以，但係點解一錄音聽就聽唔出有美式口音😢😢

小弟都想參與下呢個互動遊戲，唔知可唔可以send 錄音俾你呢？我唔介意上RUclips。

小弟依家係北美讀英文course差唔多讀左1年，因為自己speaking好左極多，有少少tips想講下，尤其係美式發音。 我依家講英文特定嘅音例如 th, v, z, r, n音會比較明顯，例如可以試下開google translation語音讀一次girl，r音唔明顯會出唔到girl/ 又或者講trick or treat時，想像係前面有t音嘅rick同reat 而有啲位我地都會懶音化佢，例如internet可以讀成inernet, identify讀成idenify，twenty讀tweny，但thirty就讀thirdy 上述例子只係一部份，但其實英文要講得好，重要嘅係適當嘅停頓同每隻字嘅重音放邊，所以最好查字典望住音標讀

sir, have you tried turning your computer off and on again?

可以幫我指正我的pronunciation有什麼要改進的地方嗎？怎麼發audio給你呢

的確第一次聽有啲似印度口音 2:06

Love how cnn tries to normalize this creep. Yikes.

幽默風趣，實用教學，咁都唔紅，天理難容😂

Thanks!
