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?

Literally, the best English Teacher on UA-cam. Bravo 👏👏👏
Thank you! 😃
She is a good teacher but of American English
No she isn't.
What a calming and clear voice. Your students are very lucky to have you as a teacher 😊.
Thank you! 😃
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 😊

One more step forward with this video on my endless English journey!! 😀
Mine too😅😂
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.
"Colonel" is pronounced in such a way because it is an alteration of coronel, from Middle French, modification of Old Italian colonnello column of soldiers, colonel, diminutive of colonna column, from Latin columna.
Thanks a lot 🙏🏻
Thank you for that explanation.
@@AccurateEnglish My pleasure, thanks for your great efforts 🙏🏻
Lisa, you're the go-to American English tutor.❤
I wish this lesson never end.
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!
Great video! Pronounciation skills are always so clear with your lessons. Thank you
PronUNciation
One of the best teacher on youtube ❤
Many thanks for all your efforts
........ one of the best teachers.
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.
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 🙂
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!
My pronunciation would have gone awry if I hadn't watched this lesson.
She's leading you astray.
I was eagerly anticipating a video from you.Thank you so much for your support.Your thoughtfulness means the world to me. ❤❤
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.
Thanks for this one
I didn't even know some of these words😅
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.
Very good lessons on correct pronunciation.
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.
Pronouncing "incorrectly" (adverb) not "wrong" (adjective).
“wrong” can be a noun, a verb, an adjective, and an adverb.
the adverb would be "wrongly" ?
Hi. I would like to know if you can teach me how to talk in English, How much is the cost,

Wrongly, although wrong is common.

@Ankitasharma 26. Hi .frnd.
Great video, thanks!
Thank you!
Always helpful ❤
thank you so much for your efforts
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😃
Good lesson!
Lisa, you are a wonderful teacher! I like your useful lessons. It is helping me greatly.
Thank you❤
Thanks 🙏 for your videos very helpful
Literally, you are an amazing english teacher 😇
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".
Love them,thank you
I like Lisa’s lessons, very helpful
Thanks for pronunciation teaching!
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 💐
Thanks, Lisa
You are very good at what you are doing.
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
Pronouncing wrongly, or incorrectly is better. Thank you for sharing how to pronounce words. And we will share with you how to speak proper diction.
I m so happy I got to know and practice my english thank u so much teacher.You are the best.
Figure pronunciation is totally new for me. Thank you for this video.

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.
Thanks
I have been watching Lisa's video for many years and now I become an IELTS teacher. I can still learn so much from Lisa's video. Lisa is Literally the best english teacher online.
Wow, thank you! Congratulations on becoming an IELTS teacher!
@@AccurateEnglish
👏👏👏👏👏 Amazing class.
Mam please teach us pronunciation of 'courtesy' and 'vowel'
Ma'am
There is seemingly no one or an overarching rule to fit all except it boils down to the each specific word.
Now I realize that I've been confusing "awry"with "a lie" in podcasts
my English learning with u sir is set in stone and i m not flaking out.🥰👍👍
Thanks for making this video for Indians, Love from India.
Thank you so much I just lean the best way
It’s always a pleasure watching your new video thanks for everything god bless you 🙏
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.❤
So sweet of you ❤
Thank you 💐💐💐
Thank you for your videos..English isn't my mother tongue & my standard's been dipping lately...so pls keep your videos coming.
Thanks forever
Oh Wow Thank you ive learned a lot of this...
Thank you so much! My surprise was "increase" and "thoroughly"...
Thank you Lisa. Lots of people pronounce literally as litually
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
Yes ! I am learning.. it is native a grammar school
My English is improving by leaps and bounds. Thanks a lot!
To say "She literally exploded with anger" indicates you are using the word "literally" in a "figurative" sense!!! 🙃😵💫
Yes!
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. 😄
She's the best!
Merci Madam!
