I have been studying English for years and none of the teachers I studied with or books I studied from covered this important topic. If they ever did, they did not cover it in a clearly enough way for me to notice it and understand it. Thank you Gideon. As always, your videos are super clear and super helpful.
Great explanation, I've never been taught these differences in pronounciation between verbs, adjectives and/or nouns. I've always thought that it was a kind of arbitrary pronounciation related to different accents of the language. Thank you Teacher you're simply the best!
Thank you Sir Gideon. You are doing such an amazing work for all of those who are doing their best to improve their English. Stay healthy and happy as long as possible. I do wish you the Universe to show you much gratitude and lots of inspiration for your future projects.
There used to be a common elocution lesson phrase, " Round the rugged rock, the ragged rascal ran !"😊 (rolling your 'r's' is purely optional, lol) (now I see this at the very end of your video, ha!), but never heard it as a 'wretched' rascal. You kin larn sumpin' new ever' day! Here in Boston, Masschusetts, we ( or at least those of us from the Maritimes of Canada), say things like tuna or tree with just the 't', not as 'ch'una. I hear folks with a more Southern backround say them as 'ch' una... aaarrrrggghhhh, drives me nuts to hear it!
As far as I can Tell you are the best teacher I meet ever Gideon. Certanly must be a delight to have a class with you at your school. During this last week I learned quite much that I´d in the past last 10 years. Your words are gold for english learners. Cheers Mate!!!!!
When I was in school in the later Medieval Ages, my 7th grade teacher taught us to indicate the difference between the past tense verb and the adjective with an accent mark: "learnéd" as opposed to "learned." This makes the difference and the pronunciation immediately apparent.
I wish i would watch this video, but back when it had has been released i haven't knew about this channel. Now i'll correct my mistake. Again, thank you, Gideon, for this little piece of knowledge you share with us.
It's funny but I pronounced these words properly and I had no idea that there are the specific rules referring to this topic. You've made my day. Once again a great and useful lesson! Keep it up!
Great teacher..I didn't know, or at least I don't remember, about most of those rules in English...and I studied English in London...I may have missed that class. Love the way you explain everything so clear. Thanks from Cali, Colombia.
This video is very helpful to improve pronunciation!!! I love the way you teach. I know all the words. However, I haven't listened some of them very frequently such as the verb " house". Thanks so much !!!!!!
The third rule goes for Aussie and New Zealand accents too. It also includes the d sound, as in due/dew -> jew, duty -> jewty, duke -> juke, during -> juring, produce/reduce/induce etc. -> -juice etc. Quite a few speakers turn s and z in those positions into sh and zh as well (assume -> ashume, presume -> prezhume)
Fantastic video sir, I have been learning English for six months, but first time I got to know about these adjective , thanks a lot from India New Delhi
An amazingly useful lesson.🏆👍☺ I haven't been taught that way. It has never draw my attention that such defferences might have such signifficance. Thank you
Excellent video. As for the word "mature": Whereas the adjective is pronounced with the "ch" sound, the verb (e.g. "to mature") is pronounced with the "t" sound (e.g. "ma-toor"). Is this correct? Thanks.
@@LetThemTalkTV thanks a lot for your answer Gideon, but to speak with you would be a bit complicated, cos my town it's miles away from yours, but if you'd like to come, you'll be welcome to manresa, i'm looking forward to see you, take care;
Thanks. Yes, that's a good question. Because "skilled" and most -ed adjectives originated from the verb and so don't have the extra "-ID" syllable. Apparently, LEARNED and a few of the others I mentioned came about in a different way though even I am not sure how that is.
First and foremost, thank you for another compelling video. I learn a lot every time I watch one. This time, though, I was a bit flummoxed while watching you explaining how the pronunciation of two identical words differs depending on their functioning as either verbs or nouns. What about "cause", "pause", "grouse", "praise", and all the other words that are pronounced in the same way irrespective of their use, according to the Cambridge Dictionary? Is it possible that there be a 'rule' only for some groups of words (i.e. possessing specific phonetic features), or even that what you explained in the video should be taken as a 'rule of thumb' more than a regular and generalised phonetic behaviour?
Prepositions are always hard. Some make sense physically, some are just the one that is used at that time. For your example, "in" would be the choice, the name is being added into the list. If you were asked to check later, you'd say, "Yes, I can find his name IN Mindbody for you." (because you are, as we say, IN [or using] the program) But an equally good answer would be, "Yes, his name is ON my list." (No special reason, just what we say.)
I checked in Chambers and the OED. Beloved is said belov'd if it's the passive of the obsolete verb belove. E.g. fruit beloved by birds. On the other hand beloved as an adjective or noun has the third syllable sounded, e.g. his beloved bicycle, my best beloved. PS: Please don't think I'm picky. Gideon is the best I've seen for English grammar, goes far deeper than most of the clickbaity eye-candy
YOUR HEART is SLIGHTLY BIGGER than the average human heart ,but that's because YOU ARE A TEACHER ! FOR ALL YOU DO , FOR WHO YOU ARE , I will be FOREVER GRATEFUL YOU ARE IN MY LIFE !!!! THANK YOU SINCERELY !!!!!!
"Round the ragged rock, the ragged rascal ran" - Reminds me of Miss Courtney of 'Mind your Language' fame trying to teach Chung Su-Lee to pronounce the r sound. Hilarious!
Great explanation, Gideon. Thank you. I've always experienced difficulty with the words ending in ed which you cover. In the sentence of a song Blessed are the one-way ticket holders, blessed is pronounced blessid. However, isn't this blessed a verb?

This video-lesson is extremely interessing indeed!

Such a great video. Thank you so much!
Informative and impressive
I don't what to say, I am speechless
Hats off and heads down for you 👍
I'm left speechless by your kind words.
very useful i like it Thanks
Excellent video.

Gideon, as a teacher you're a pretty good one, i'd like to speak with you face to face, hats off to you once more:
I hope we get to speak face to face until then I thank you for your comments and wish you all the best.
@@LetThemTalkTV thanks a lot for your answer Gideon, but to speak with you would be a bit complicated, cos my town it's miles away from yours, but if you'd like to come, you'll be welcome to manresa, i'm looking forward to see you, take care;
Manresa in Catalonia. I've been in your region but not in the town. Maybe some time.
This video help me a lot. Thank you teacher!
Your comment helps me a lot thanks student.
9:33 "Some people" includes Mick Jagger from the Rolling stones. Listen to "Ruby Tuesday"! Maybe pronunciation changed since then?
Keep up the good job bro👌👍👍
💐You are learned teacher💐
Very useful thanks! Why doesn't the word "skilled" follow the -id pronunciation rule, it being an adjective? Is it an exception? Thanks
Thanks. Yes, that's a good question. Because "skilled" and most -ed adjectives originated from the verb and so don't have the extra "-ID" syllable. Apparently, LEARNED and a few of the others I mentioned came about in a different way though even I am not sure how that is.
Very useful indeed!
Happy to hear so
2000 thumbs up. thanks!
Thank you so much for these lessons!
...But when I heard "literature" with all those CHs I felt tense.

Thank you😊
Is it right to say "have a blessed (bless-id) day".
It might be correct grammatically, but a native speaker wouldn't use this phrase. Try, have a good day.
It would be a good video differences between take and bring!
Your videos are very interesting .I learned new things of this language👍
Learn something new every day.
Hi Gedeon, how do you pronounce the S in works, plays, runs, prays etc? Thanks :)
Thanks a million
Thanks many more for the comment.
"You can tune a guitar but you can't tune a fish" hahaha you are so hilarious! I love your videos you are the best !
Teacher, thank you! Could you work on in/on (I have to insert the new students on/in Mindbody, software)! Get always confused! Which one shall I use?

nice stuff
Morning teacher. I would like to know if you have a video about PARTICIPLE CLAUSES...PLEASE
Would be nice to have IPA title cards for the tricky pronounciation cases!
I loved it
Isn't fixed (adj.)an exception i.e. fixt?
Thanks a lots
Thank you.
Thank you Sir,respect from Pakistan,you are doing magnificient work.I venerate you.
Thank you for your kind words. They are much appreciated
@@LetThemTalkTV happy teachers day,may you have healthy and wealthy life
I checked in Chambers and the OED. Beloved is said belov'd if it's the passive of the obsolete verb belove. E.g. fruit beloved by birds. On the other hand beloved as an adjective or noun has the third syllable sounded, e.g. his beloved bicycle, my best beloved. PS: Please don't think I'm picky.

Teachers like YOU are 1 in a trillion ! THANK YOU GIDEON!
thakyou so much
What about "relaxed" ? /rɪˈlækst/ or /rɪˈlæksid/
relaxed is always pronounced the first way.
"Round the ragged rock, the ragged rascal ran" - Reminds me of Miss Courtney of 'Mind your Language' fame trying to teach Chung Su-Lee to pronounce the r sound. Hilarious!
You deserve to be commented. I do not know why you get so low number visits. It is something that still baffles me. You are very good
Thanks you are among the privileged few.
Gideon is a learned teacher.
Great 👍🏻
Yes, you are
Thank u sir
Thank you student.
Great explanation, Gideon. Thank you. I've always experienced difficulty with the words ending in ed which you cover. In the sentence of a song Blessed are the one-way ticket holders, blessed is pronounced blessid. However, isn't this blessed a verb?
In the sentence you quote, it is an adjective.
Omg you are such a great teacher. Thanks is far less that what you are giving. 🌷 accept my flower 😊 please.
