Hi, thanks for this video, I'm not a native speaker and I did'nt have anny idea about syllables and stressed words so my score was 18/25, but it was 13/15 from the part & and 2
Thanks for sharing your experience! Yes, the last part about word stress can be tricky. There are some rules that you can learn to use better word stress. This video is a good place to start: ua-cam.com/video/GkMRHfhTLs8/v-deo.html
@@LearnAcademicEnglish Yes, but I have to watch the video again; 1)ladder 2)soot 3)interesting 4)strengthen 1)ladder : I made mistake with options and I thought that the word "latter" was in the options.😅 2)soot : I haven't seen this word before.😶 3)interesting : I thought that it has 4 syllables (in-te-res-ting). 4)strengthen : I thought it has 3 syllables (st-reng-then).
The "soot" one was tricky because it's not a common word. However, I was hoping that people would be able to notice that it didn't sound like "suit" which has a long /uw/ as in "food." "Interesting" was tricky, but I tried to emphasize that it should be based on how I said it, not what it looks like. That word can have different pronunciations, but I said it with 3 syllables, which is a very common way to say it 😀
Hello Jenna! My score is 24/25. I grasped "suit" instead of "soot", partly because I didn't know the word soot (but now I do). I also had a hard time distinguishing the words "letter" and "ladder", but eventually I made it. What happens with this couple of minimal pairs is quite interesting to me: if I listen to one of them out of any context it's challenging, while I have no doubt when they are pronounced back to back. Anyway, thanks so much for your lessons, they're always extremely clear, helpful, and pleasant to watch!👍
Great job! Thanks for sharing! Yes, minimal pairs are quite challenging because they're out of context, and I'm sure it would be no problem to distinguish them if you heard more than one word. Of course native speakers can hear them very easily, so they are good training for language learners to sharpen their ears and think about what makes the sounds different. Soot is not a common word, but it sounds different from suit because the latter has that tense /uw/ sound. 😀
Hi there, Jenna! How're things on your end? Hope all is well. I just took the test and got 22 out of 25. Thanks to your extremely helpful test, I've just realized that I need to go over the syllable rules. The other categories I nailed them without any difficulty, fortunately. Thanks for posting this test here on your channel. Looking forward to more videos such as this one. Till then, I hope you have an incredible and very productive (brand new) week ahead. Take care.
@@LearnAcademicEnglish Glad to know everything is going well on your end. Well, as far as I'm concerned, all good here - can't complain. Like you and almost the rest of the world, I've been extremely busy at work lately. Today, for instance, was one of those days I didn't know where to start. Lots to do and so little time. Other than that, just the same ole, same ole. The week barely started out and I'm already looking forward to the weekend - I always am! Ha! Good to hear from you as well. I hope you have a nice, restful evening and a very productive week. Stay well and all the best, Jenna.

Hi, thanks for this video, I'm not a native speaker and I did'nt have anny idea about syllables and stressed words so my score was 18/25, but it was 13/15 from the part & and 2
That's great! Now you know something about syllables and word stress :) It's an important part of pronunciation and not hard to learn
Wow this is one of my favorite videos, wish I had done a better score but got 20 out of 25 thanks again :)
Good job! Do you remember which ones you missed? Thinking about your mistakes can help you to know what you should learn more. 😀
@@LearnAcademicEnglish biggest mistake was on the 2nd part but I will pay more attention :)
Those vowels are hard!
I got 18 , the last part was the worst 😅.

22/25 yay!
Good work! Which ones did you miss?
my score was 21 out of 25
Good job! Do you remember which ones you missed?
@@LearnAcademicEnglish Yes, but I have to watch the video again;
1)ladder 2)soot 3)interesting 4)strengthen
1)ladder : I made mistake with options and I thought that the word "latter" was in the options.😅
2)soot : I haven't seen this word before.😶
3)interesting : I thought that it has 4 syllables (in-te-res-ting).
4)strengthen : I thought it has 3 syllables (st-reng-then).
The "soot" one was tricky because it's not a common word. However, I was hoping that people would be able to notice that it didn't sound like "suit" which has a long /uw/ as in "food."
"Interesting" was tricky, but I tried to emphasize that it should be based on how I said it, not what it looks like. That word can have different pronunciations, but I said it with 3 syllables, which is a very common way to say it 😀

I've been well. Thanks for asking. How about you?
