Thank you so much!
You are so smart mam.
I hate these types of videos that count down something and don't give you a list expecting you to drag through the 10, 15, 30 minutes etc to see the only parts you're interested in.
Thank you very much!

Now I'll search for 'top 12 annoying things RUclipsrs do when they post a video' 😂😂😂
Cuba is a Spanish word which is pronouncedC-oo-ba (Cuba). In English it’s C-you-ba like she said.
So it’s not incorrect to pronounce it the Spanish way.
If we're gonna be pedantic it's 'wrongly' - not 'wrong'.
Also it's American English.
@raindancer6111 Many Americans are adverbially challenged (which they'd express as "adverbial challenged").
Not pedantic. Just correct. Pronounce correctly, or wrongly.
If you want to teach English, do it properly, or get lost.
@@raindancer6111Don't Americans use adverbs?
@@vanettevanhuyssteen5548that’s something I’ve noticed.
It's difficult for non native speakers to use the correct pronunciation. In India it even varies according to region. As a student of English literature and now a teacher, I struggle a lot. Such videos are quite helpful.
Please don't put India
and English in the same sentence.
Why?
Literally, the best English Teacher on RUclips. Bravo 👏👏👏
Thank you! 😃
She is a good teacher but of American English
No she isn't.
1:38, let me explain. The word colonel came to English from Italian (colonelo), but pronunciation is actually taken from French word coronelle. So it's a hybrid, such a situation is typical of English. The most interesting thing, that later, French borrowed the word colonello from Italian, and stopped using their own word coronello.
Historically from the French 😊
L·L0😊😊😊😊😊
"Colonnello" in Italian.
What? No. In French, 'coronelle' is a species of snake, it has nothing to do with the army 😅. It's "Colonel": \kɔ.lɔ.nɛl\ (ko-lo-nèl)
Great video! Pronounciation skills are always so clear with your lessons. Thank you
PronUNciation
100%.... This video made me realize that I'm super-brilliant, and didn't know it until now.
So well delivered. The material delivered is thoroughly chosen and easy to memorize! I have been learning English all my life , working with this language ; I always find something different or new for me. Great.
Thank you!
I have learned so much today.. Thank you!
Thanks for making this video for Indians, Love from India.
What a calming and clear voice. Your students are very lucky to have you as a teacher 😊.
Thank you! 😃
Lisa, you're the go-to American English tutor.❤
So useful! I would like to suggest to add a short quiz at the end, just as your other vides. The quiz part is my favorite one. It gives me the idea of self evaluation and makes me focus while listening.
Thanks for the lesson. It helps a lot in improving our pronunciation and making it accurate. The pronunciation of "increase" varies depending on whether it is treated as a noun or as a verb. Keep up the great work.
I wish this lesson never end.
I was eagerly anticipating a video from you.Thank you so much for your support.Your thoughtfulness means the world to me. ❤❤
My pronunciation would have gone awry if I hadn't watched this lesson.
She's leading you astray.
One more step forward with this video on my endless English journey!! 😀
Mine too😅😂
One of the best teacher on youtube ❤
Many thanks for all your efforts
........ one of the best teachers.
A million thanks to Lisa for making this important video. I have learned English for a long time and always have a difficulty to pronunce DEVELOPE and DEVELOPMENT. Finally i came across this lesson. Thank you again Lisa. 👍💯💯💯
The best English Teacher on You Tube.Many thanks
Thanks for this one
I didn't even know some of these words😅
What an important lessoni it helps me straight out my pronunciation of the mentioned words! Teacher Lisa, your efforts are highly appreciated and thank you so much!
i must say that you are a good teacher for primary English leaner, and i have b2 leave in English. But i can't listen clear from many teachers, you can have a clear pronunciation that make me understand what a native speaker express without subtitle
Excellent!!! You are a real professional in English!!!
We in New Zealand don't insert a y before the u in figure. This is an American distortion to my mind.
I agree with your sentiment. American (English pronunciation) is not the only way. What about the English spoken in London, Canada Australia, and the Caribbean plus the names of Spanish countries should not be Americanized or even Anglicized let's learn to pronounce them as far as possible as the native speakers do. I hate the anglicized gen/rer pronuciation for the French 'genre'. It is always refreshing, for me to listen to the many ways native speakers communicate with each other when using English. Lastly language is situational and dynamic and I enjoy this.
It's an awesome video, even the most advanced speakers of English may not even know that they pronounce some of those words wrongly. It has been very helpful on the part of me and no doubt so will it for many other people.
Thanks. You did a thorough job.
Very good lessons on correct pronunciation.
Awesome! Crystal clear! Thank you so much Ms Lisa Mojsin! This comes all the way from Malaysia!
I got everyone right! They were easy. You mentioned French once or twice. A lot of the words we use every day come from the French language.
Excellent teaching, Thank you very much
I am so amazed how I had been mispronouncing some of the words you’ve mentioned 😅
Thank you so much for your wisdom❤
I have an idea why colonel is spoken with an “R” and not with “L“ interesting in my native language (Brazilian Portuguese) we say “coronel” also meaning a senior military officer, and it’s not a random coincidence I searched the etymology of colonel: [Alteration of obsolete coronel, from French, from Old Italian colonello, from diminutive of colonna, column of soldiers, from Latin columna, column.
Thank you for that explanation. Very interesting!
In Spanish we said coronel too!
You are an excellent teacher of English language. Thank you so much.
Thank you Lisa
A brilliant lady, thanks for the information
Melhor aula de Inglês aqui do youtube. Parabéns pela didática!
Entrepreneur ... I'm a native speaker and I wasn't sure of that one! It's hard for us, too. I wish it hadn't caught on so much!
It's pronounced as the French word which it is.
@@margaretlane7402 Right. It's French. I'm not, so I find it hard to pronounce, as did one of the sample speakers 🙂
Thanks, tr. I appreciate your work.
Great job teacher!
Great tips! Thank you!
Excellent class lisa, thanks.
You're literally a good teacher. I have learnt many things from your videos. Keep uploading more videos

You're my favorite English teacher in RUclips...watching from Hongkong ❤❤❤❤
This is great content!! Thank you!!
Excellent. Thanks for your effort
Can you also share any rule behind the pronunciation! Like flat t, etc.
Mam please teach us pronunciation of 'courtesy' and 'vowel'
Ma'am
KER-tih-see, and VOW-L
Lisa, you are a wonderful teacher! I like your useful lessons. It is helping me greatly.
Very helpful and informative video. Thank you Ma'am 😊
@Ankitasharma 26. Hi .frnd.
wonderful learning tips for free ...thanks a million 😗👍👍👍👍
The lesson had the exact words that I had been wondering about their correct pronunciation. Thanks for your thorough guidance on the same.
She said several of the words in the American English form and not how anyone in England would say them - no one in England says thur row we say thur ruh for thorough is one example
Love your videos. I was taught to say "the weather is very warm" or "... is so warm that ...", not just "the weather is so warm".
You are very good at what you are doing.
Literally, you are an amazing english teacher 😇
Great video, thanks!
Thank you!
Love your lessons!
Thank you❤
Good lesson!
Figure pronunciation is totally new for me. Thank you for this video.
Excellent!!! Thank you!!!
Love them,thank you
It’s always a pleasure watching your new video thanks for everything god bless you 🙏
I kept listening and watching because of your pronunciation of "pronunciation"...Cheers from sunny Australia.
Wonderful teaching.
Colonel is such an interesting word in terms of pronunciation! This was my very first time learning this word! And I also corrected some of my inaccurate pronunciations, such as figure and thorough! Thank you so much, Professor Lisa!😍😍💪🏻💪🏻🌷🥰❤️🌸
Grazieee Tante💪🏻🌷🌸
Thanks Liza.. genre... Ya- na- ra and thorough. They are tough words to pronounce.
Yeah, I agree. Some words are difficult
Thanks for pronunciation teaching!
thank you so much for your efforts
I like Lisa’s lessons, very helpful
Thank you, Lisa, for the great pronunciation lesson. 💕 I heard the other day that "thanks" is pronounced with an /ei/ sound, whereas the word "cat" is pronounced with an /æ/ sound. I'd never heard of that before. Could you please give us some more examples related to that in a tutorial? 🙏 Thank you so much in advance! Hugs from Hungary.❤
Fantastic !! thank you
Thanks 🙏 for your videos very helpful
Thank you so much! My surprise was "increase" and "thoroughly"...
I m so happy I got to know and practice my english thank u so much teacher.You are the best.
Always helpful ❤
Thank you Lisa. Lots of people pronounce literally as litually
The logarithm give me this choice ❤ Thank you so much - I was 50/50 correct - even I’m Germany and haven’t so much practice. 😊 Exited to learn more from you - I like how you teach 💐
Thank you for your videos..English isn't my mother tongue & my standard's been dipping lately...so pls keep your videos coming.
my English learning with u sir is set in stone and i m not flaking out.🥰👍👍
It amazed me how right you are. I have been mispronouncing those words all the time. How did you know?
It comes from working with English learners for over 30 years. 😄
Hi our best teacher ! Good morning and thanks alot
Thank you for bringing up the misuse of the word LITERALLY.... I think you LITERALLY hit it on the nail...Did I use it right in this case? 😊
LITERALLY "hit the nail on the head" is the phrase you're looking for
Somewhere in 1995 the US Ambassador came to Kyiv, Ukraine. And I translated 'leasing' as 'leazing', as we usually pronounce it. He was not pleased. And I remember it thirty years later😃
Thank you madam. I will follow you.
Thanks, Lisa
There is seemingly no one or an overarching rule to fit all except it boils down to the each specific word.
Thank you so much I just lean the best way
👏👏👏👏👏 Amazing class.
3:21 In British English colonel does not have a pronounced R, and neither for that matter does kernel. We do not pronounce R at the end of a syllable unless it is followed by a vowel. The word car in British English would I think be denoted by ca:
Also to a British ear, you are saying audomadically. Americans commonly voice the T.
Oh Wow Thank you ive learned a lot of this...
My English is improving by leaps and bounds. Thanks a lot!
Much appreciate from Zanzibar Tanzania.
