@@InteractiveEng You're most welcome!
As French students we spend years learning English just to realize advanced English is actually French 😅 (facetious -> facétieux, arduous -> ardu, presumptuous -> présomptueux, austere -> austère, capricious -> capricieux....)
Very true. So many words have been borrowed from French. 👍
as a native english speaker, i can certainly attest that learning french improved my english vocabulary a non-insignificant amount. i guess that's what happens when your native language contains a millennium old class war....
You mean Latin 😉
@@laurascaramella6993 Neh... I mean French ;)
Lol Ikr. That’s why learning English and French in a combo is a great way to learn 2 foreign languages and boost your English😅
I am Deaf by birth, doctors assumed I be unable to learn, so I didn’t learn proper English, I love creativity and the way you teach is amazing, it help me get a better understanding on word usage ❤
even as a university educated native speaker actually having words explained like this is pretty useful
Thanks for commenting & checking out the lesson. 👍
Remember, try not to use some of these words in casual conversation, or you may come off as a nerd, or purposely trying to sound smart. Use these in more formal discussions, or in essays were you need more specific vocabulary. This is coming from a native English speaker.
(I’m not responding to any more replies)
Correct! if you use the words in a causual setting, you will ocme off as a snub
@@bipower6969 snob*
@@kaswaniwalmsleyfilm5878 bruhhhhhh
I think defamatory is fine for everyday use if you're addressing defamation and not just someone who's being an arse. Arduous is a great word for comedic effect, like using it to describe simple tasks like washing the dishes or taking the trash out. I think preposterous is also a fine substitute for absurd, at least in a work environment, rather than school. All depends on the environment and people you talk with, I think these are fine for common usage.
@@openyoureyes1985 true
As a native english speaker, the overwhelming majority of these words aren't used on a day to day basis. Great list all the same.
True, however, having only a basic range of vocab would definitely act as a total disadvantage in a formal writing (dissertation, thesis,…)
@@khoata9121 another problem of using advanced vocabulary is non native speakers don’t understand you because they only use simplified words to communicate with others

Native English speaker here. Learners, be advised that some these words are above the vocabulary level of many Americans. Know your audience, and don't be afraid to rely on simpler words. You will never offend an American by speaking plainly
@Limon Cello There are other countries in America???
Just joking. Yes, it's pompous for us to name ourselves after two entire continents, but much of the world humors us
I actually hear 80-90% of them in the business context. It’s not uncommon to hear these words
@Limon Cello America you dummy.
I came across many of these words frequently and i guess I understand what they mean, this video teaches me more clearly what they mean and how to use them
These words aren't above average. No need to dumb it down. That's what they do in public schools.
Great list! I’m a native English speaker, but since I teach beginning English to non native speakers….my speaking skills are declining! Most of my daily conversation with students is a simplified English. I really need this. Thank you!
I have a 99 percentile vocabulary, but I find this very helpful as a reminder of words I seldom use due to my need to communicate effectively, rather than to sound 'smart'.
Glad you enjoyed the lesson & found it useful. 😊
English is my second language. For a romance-derived language speaker, e.g., Spanish, these words are rather easy because they come from Latin, and already exist and are used in Spanish, Portuguese, etc. For example, meticulous is meticuloso, arduous is arduo, pensive comes from pensante or pensador, austere is austero, capricious is caprichoso, defamatory is defamador, nascent comes from nacer (to be born), etc. The challenge however, is to pronounce them correctly in English, especially for a foreigner,
Equally in Portuguese
@@jeanalex7698 Yes
Portuguese is similar to Russian lol
As a non-native Ph.D. student, I found your lesson very useful. I've heard those words so many times. I give you a follow! Thanks so much for your incredible choices of words!
Glad the lesson was helpful. Thanks for your comment. 😃
Hiiii! Jesus loves you! God Loves you so much 2000 years ago, the God that loves you put His Only Son on a Cross to save you from the fires of hell that were caused by your sin. you see, something named sin is the need for a place called hell. sin is anything wrong that we do against a Holy God. Everything wrong like lying, (have you ever lied before), stealing, blaspheming God name (aka OMG, saying It without regard of God's Holiness. Have you ever cheated on something before? Hatred, Malice, Envy. Have you ever hated someone before? Have you ever mailice someone before? Have you ever envied someone before? Sin is death, and its wages are the same (the wages of sin is death, but the Gift of God through Jesus Christ is eternal life) Going before the throne of a Holy God on Judgement Day ay the end of our lives, we will be judged for all the sin we have commited. If there is any sin the person wil be sent to HELL. now this is The Good News: Jesus Christ died in your place, in the place of sinners. Now if you will believe on Him, and turn from your sin, you will be saved. Repent quickly. Do not decieve yourself that He is not coming back.
Hello, from Brazil!!! Can we talk about your native language?
@@mpessan sure
😊😊
They say vocabulary helps us expand reality or something like that. You started off with two words that just made me think of how cumbersome work is, and how arduous it is learning words that make me think of difficult tasks.
Thanks for commenting & checking out the lesson. 👍
Yesterday my family and I went on a road trip along Karbala if you have never heard of it it's such an enormous province in my country ,Iraq, on the first day of the trip we visited an amusement park and we had a great time there ,then we went to an amazing restaurant around the corner the food was scrumptious, and the waiter was so kind .On the last day of the trip we went to a large local library we read some books the books were actually so gripping that we couldn't put them down.It was an esoteric experience .❤🥰
Thanks for commenting & sharing. 👍
Thanks Mr. Wes .Extremely good. I loved this video. And it just struck to my mind that all these years I had myself got stuck with the basics of English language when I should be learning this instead. Thanks a ton Sir. I really appreciate the effort you put on to create this video so that people like us could access it at our fingertips especially girls like me. Gr8 job. God bless you.
I’m a native U.S. citizen who has spoken English from childhood, but I still appreciate these videos to help me communicate better. 🙂
I am from Italy and it is amazing how the more English goes formal the more it sounds like Latin languages. For a native of Italian like me it is much easier to remember this kind of words!
Thanks for commenting & sharing. 👍
These words aren’t commonly used. Maybe if you were writing a paper. Or maybe one or two occasionally. But in regular conversation, I do not hear them.
@@iamastrangeloop9204 Of course, that's what I said. They are more formal.
I really like your teaching style. I find it very easy to absorb and to follow along with. Usually I accidentally zone out and miss most of what people are saying, but this was perfect.
Wonderful! Thanks for commenting & checking out the lesson. 👍

Thank you for your service, it means a lot to me to watch and reboot my knowledge ❤
Hello Wes!
I would like to express my great appreciation for the video you have created. Now I feel completely and utterly enriched as far as advanced English vocabulary is concerned. In two weeks' time, I am taking an oral exam and my intention is to impress my teachers with sophisticated vocabulary.
Thanks to you, I am totally positive that it will be undeniably feasible!
Have a wonderful day, Wes! :D
Well, I can tell you that during my oral exam I came up with other captivating idiomatic expressions such as:
*it is not my cup of tea = it does not interest me, I don't like it
*something is worth your weight in gold = something is very useful
*set much store on something = pay attention to something,
which contributed positively to my final note!!! :DDD
***For those who are going to pass an English exam soon, above mentioned expressions may also (come in handy=be useful)! ;)
Thank you for putting together several highly useful vocabulary lessons in one single video! This is very practical, especially because the explanation and the examples are both clear and concise at the same time! Just great! Many thanks for your effort!
Best wishes,
Anna
Thanks Anna! 😀
As a migrant, I am absolutely astonish with how extensive the English vocabulary. Thank you so much for all you give me! I am most appreciative. Roberto
I'm not sure why this video was recommended to me as a native English speaker, but I guess we can always learn something new! I certainly enjoy using nice vocabulary that my colleagues at work (they are also native speakers of English but make silly mistakes ["miss read" instead of misread, "aloud" instead of allowed, etc., quite embarrassing!]) don't understand (but pretend to 😂) Happy learning to all of you!
Absolutely amazing. Loved it. I learned many new words. Will rerun the video. What is great about your way of teaching is that you dont just give words on a list, but you define them AND give examples in context. It is just great. I wish you would do more C2 lessons.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for commenting & checking out the lesson. 👍

I'm so grateful for this videos..An impeccable knowledge of you is indeed a blessing to us.Your too munificent to share your knowledge and ideas to us. Being esoteric in vocabularies are really commendable......
Truly magnificent videos I’ve just come across. Thank you for very much Sir, much appreciated.
I would like to say that this has been really helpful in introducing me to words that I had no idea existed, and ones I knew, but didn’t understand them fully. We really need more videos such as this since they are very informative and entertaining to watch, and in hindsight I feel like I should have started watching your videos long time ago.
Nice writing man, good luck
Dear Wes, I have recently discovered your channel and this video is absolutely brilliant for a C2 exam. Thank you!❤👍👍
As a native English speaker with a love of articulation and eloquence in speech this is extremely useful! Thankyou wholeheartedly for your outstanding and meticulous work!
(I think I'll need to rewatch it a few times to remember the ones I didn't already know, though.)
When a native English speaker uses these words it sounds natural, when someone like me it sounds ridiculous
Thanks for this scintillating video! I’ve been slacking off on my English since Chinese takes up the most of my time now; Brushed up on my vocabulary and even learned a thing or two, thanks to you!
Well how is Chinese going on?
This is awesome. A lot of advanced words in one hour, that's exactly what I am looking for. Many thanks.

Unlike you, I have a very short attention span. By focusing on just 5 words daily, I've been able to build a long-term memory for vocabulary. for people like me, I have created my own playlist where I take a quiz daily.
I am fervently working on improving my vocabulary that is why I intently listen to your lesson.
That's great! Glad you enjoyed the lesson. Thanks for your comment. 😊
English has words with similar meaning from two main sources. From Germanic sources via the Anglo-Saxon and from Latin via Norman French. I had a professor that when teaching English vocabulary to Spanish speaking students found that they had difficulty learning the short “easy” English words but were able to almost immediately learn the long more complex words . After some time she found out that these long complex words came from Latin and they were cognates to Spanish words since Spanish came from Latin as French did.
what gets lumped into being called "english" is from like six different languages. latin is only 10℅ of it. geology? greek. cot? arabic.
I need an entire video on “lie vs. lay.” From my observation, many other people struggle with these as well.
As a native English speaker, I am told my vocabulary is very good and in sampling this, I did not find any word unknown to me. Excellent presentation by the teacher, but a word of caution to the learners: do not expect all native speakers to understand you; some will be relatively uneducated and so not know such high-level words. I find I frequently have to paraphrase because I use a fair amount of advanced vocabulary in my everyday speech. So, in a nutshell, pick appropriate words!
Have you heard of the word "arrogant" before?
It would actually be unusual to encourage English learners to learn 'high level words' in an effort to sound smarter than the average native speaker. In fact, most of these words are almost never used in daily conversation by any native speaker and I take the whole 'sounding smarter' thing as a way to get clicks. The goal is to sound fluent, not smart. In fact, attempting to use a five-dollar word when a one-dollar word will suffice does not make you sound smarter, only pompous and arrogant, if not also a bit stuffy.
@@twanvanderdonk2504 Yes, I have. A good example would be someone who misreads a comment and assumes they can judge the character of a person from one comment. You might know something about that, perhaps?
@@EssentialEnglishIdioms Yes, of course, my point was that the vocabulary of some native speakers is poor. A foreign speaker with a high level of English would have to put some things in simpler terms to be understood. I like acquiring high level words and do use some, but I also explain what I mean if I appear not to have been understood.
@@twanvanderdonk2504 Yes but I don't think they are paraphrasing isn't always talking down to something.
Romance-language speakers surely find these words very intuitive
I already shared you with my family chat.
Also, I am in the middle of a text, but I excused myself just to be meticulous and drop a comment to your channel.
And of course I subscribed and thumbs up. I am definitely going to need this channel in this next part of my life. Thank you teacher.
As you may know, lots of English words come from French (my mother tongue) but their meaning has changed in English. "Truculent", for instance, means "colourful", "earthy" etc.
His Episode is really helpful for me to learn new vocabulary just for improving my communication in English
I just finished watching your vocabulary lesson about nouns. The more I learn the more I feel I am a dilettante and far from reaching my zenith in English. Though you might give me some credence to my study I know there are still a myriad of English words and expressions out there for me to explore. You are the epitome of the interactive English teaching. As some quid pro quo to your conscientious teaching I'd like to write a plain comment on each of your lessons using some of the words in that lesson. I am hoping this would be mutually beneficial to both of us regardless the dichotomy between teaching and learning.
I want to do plan for learn more Vocabulary
I intently listen to this lesson and fervently and enthusiastically like it :) .. thank you. Great lesson
Wes, thank you for your helpful vocabulary lesson.
Is it possible that you syllabize each word so I can learn vocabulary easier?
Thank you
Excellent!
Advanced vocabulary, this is what I really need. Thank you🤗

@@InteractiveEng exactly wat i need ,,,your method of teaching vocab is the best I've heard.it breaksdown English vocab to make it more usable both formal and informal,,,so intresting
This is an excellent class. These advanced vocabularies are sometimes not clear but he clarified the definition in a easy way. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for your comment. 😃
So interesting ! So rich ! I understand at least half of them because they are similar to French, my mother tongue. Your lessons really help me extand my vovabulary in English. Fervently love it ! 😍
Happy to hear that! Thanks for your comment. 😊
Amazing lesson ! I will save it and watch it again and again . Thank you 🙏🏻🌹✨
Wonderful! Thanks so much for your comment. 😃
Truculent is an interesting one. The word "truculent" in French (written the same, pronounced differently obviously) means quite the opposite. It means funny, joyful, colorful! After reading about it, it does come from the latin "truculentus" meaning "seemingly violent", and it could have that meaning in French too (although it's not the main one)! Very interesting
Thanks, Mr. West. I have not ever hear of these words. I will start practicing and more so in my writing.
I intently listen and actually take notes of all the new vocabulary words here. Thank you so much Wes.
That's great! Glad you enjoyed the lesson. :)
Very excellent presentation sir
All in one and nothing can be skipped. A must see video. Thanks a lot
Happy to hear that! Thanks so much for commenting & checking out the lesson. 👍
After listening to the teacher's explanation, it's very much like taking classes at school and growing knowledge. Thank you, teacher.
Glad you enjoyed the lesson. 😊
I found this channel accidentally when I was browsing for a way to learn more vocabularies, after listening a few times, I realized that the teacher is an expert at explaining the meaning of the word, and gives very practical example for using the word.
Thanks so much! I appreciate it. 😊
My son is very good at math but he has a little bit of trouble with spelling. This helped him A LOT! Thank you!😁

The word "Pensive" has probably a latin origin, we speak Brazilian portuguese in Brasil and the word above is "pensativo" in Portuguese...which comes from the verb "pensar" (to think).
Great classes friend.😊
Nice. Thanks for commenting & sharing. 😊
Great video! I'm an English teacher preparing students to take Cambridge Exams. One of the key challenges of the C1 Advanced exam is the time pressure you may feel during the different sections of the exam. To overcome this challenge, it's important to practice time management skills during your exam preparation. One way to do this is to simulate exam conditions as closely as possible during your practice sessions. Set yourself a time limit for each task and try to stick to it strictly. This will help you get used to working under pressure and make it easier for you to manage your time during the actual exam. If you found this helpful, I have more resources on my channel that you might be interested in checking out! Good luck!

I am an English student from Karakalpakistan 😊
so i'm currently preparing for my college entrance and I have less than 10 days left to strengthen my vocabulary. I find this video very helpful as the way you explain the words is comforting to listen. Thank you teacher.
Glad the lesson was helpful. Good luck on your exam! 👍
I’ve absolutely enjoyed your list of vocabulary words. Most of them I knew, but a few of them I needed to be refreshed with. Here’s a word that I see in the novels I read, acquiescence. When I first read it, I had to look it up, and i’ve used it often since then.
Glad to hear that! Thanks so much for your comment. 😊
That's a big part of your emotional resiliency.. you can really just grab yourself.. you need to discover this.. and terraform your body internally with this phenomenal mentally.. initiation what we don't have awareness of..
Thank you for the video. I'm doing my best improving my English, my level of English now is C1, I try to learn as many Advanced words as I can.
Thanks for commenting & checking out the lesson. 👍
What a wonderful lesson! I was intermediate almost 5 years and this year my main goal is to reach a high level, so that I have to improve my vocabulary.
Thank you so much for this intense vocabulary
I am listening intently and grateful for you guys
Very helpful. Please continue to make long vocabulary videos. This is exactly what I was looking for. 👍
Glad you enjoyed the lesson. I hope you learned some new words. 😃
Great stuff! Please continue coming up with great useful advanced English words. I am now subscribed to your channel. You're one of he best ones on UA-cam.
Happy to hear that! Thanks for commenting. 😃
Good afternoon. I am learning english. This class is very interesting for me because every day I want to learn more words and undestand them when it speaks or talks. Thank you.
Thank you, dear Wes.
Very useful.
Excellent job! It'd be even more interactive if there were quizzes after each mini lesson (gap fill or multiple choice?). At the same time they'd provide more example sentences. Thanks a lot.
Glad you enjoyed the lesson. 👍
That's the one i am looking for , thank you so muchh for this series , I hope that you can make more videos about it :)
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for commenting. 😃
I watched the whole ~1 hour video and I found it amazing. It just vexes me that I don't know a word while reading a complex book. I know if I watch enough of your videos in at least 3 months, my vocabulary will improve by a lot and it'll be easier to understand those big words. Thank you for the video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your comment. 😊
You are truly the best. I was looking for a teacher for advanced English and I found it. After watching several instructors, you are truly THE BEST ONE!
Thanks so much! I really appreciate your comment. 😊
Thank you sir..we need more advanced vocabulary lessons 😊
More to come. 👍
Hiiii! Jesus loves you! God Loves you so much 2000 years ago, the God that loves you put His Only Son on a Cross to save you from the fires of hell that were caused by your sin. you see, something named sin is the need for a place called hell. sin is anything wrong that we do against a Holy God. Everything wrong like lying, (have you ever lied before), stealing, blaspheming God name (aka OMG, saying It without regard of God's Holiness. Have you ever cheated on something before? Hatred, Malice, Envy. Have you ever hated someone before? Have you ever mailice someone before? Have you ever envied someone before? Sin is death, and its wages are the same (the wages of sin is death, but the Gift of God through Jesus Christ is eternal life) Going before the throne of a Holy God on Judgement Day ay the end of our lives, we will be judged for all the sin we have commited. If there is any sin the person wil be sent to HELL. now this is The Good News: Jesus Christ died in your place, in the place of sinners. Now if you will believe on Him, and turn from your sin, you will be saved. Repent quickly. Do not decieve yourself that He is not coming back.

It's necessary to always add new words to your vocabulary repertoire. Nice lesson!
Beneficial but perhaps not needed consistency.
Such a great lesson! Thanks so much Wes for your great work!
