Hi, I'm from Russia and I can tell you that we pronounce this words with mistakes because in this case it is easier to remember their spelling. We're trying to learn the correct spelling by repeating each syllable and then we make this mistake in pronunciation. Thanks for your lessons, it's always great!
+muhammad abdulkarim can't you give a compliment in a proper way ? yes , these people need to appreciate their efforts , brother you have a great name pls just care about the image that u give .
Thanks Emma I am a kid I will be in year 4 now and I already learned about syllables but I did not learned about silent syllables. I just wanted to say thank you to you. I have just watched this channel today. A very big thanks. What a magic! I like all the videos in TH-cam but this is my first favourite fantastic video that I watch. Keep up the good work.welldone Emma. Before I finish this comment there's a thing I would like you to know. I am a girl and I love to write and type. So that's why this comment is that much long. At the end of the comment I want to say that keep up your fantastic work
Thank you, English is not my first language and I have been butchering all these words for over 10 years now. Thank you for coming to the rescue. Your videos are helping me to speak better.
I took English lessons 36 years ago and I really must to REFRESH from A to Z. So thanks once again for your time and for being so sweet to us!!!👸🏻🌻👍⚘💎❤🙏🏼🍾🥂🍷🌷😎✌👌💋
As a native UK English (North London) speaker of 70 years plus, I do not agree that Broccoli has only 2 syllables. The 'o' is almost but not quite silent, and for us is pronounced as a very short "er" sound. Well done for the rest of the examples. Oddly we pronounce Chocolate with 2 or 3 syllables depending on how we feel!
There are 3 syllables in broccoli. The o isn't silent, it' is a schwa (ə) sound and is pronounced. In both British and American English. Source: Oxford dictionary, Google and every dictionary in the world. ps: still the best TH-cam channel!
I think there is only 2 syllables because the schwa sound is part of the l sound...without the schwa sound it would sound brok-li and it sounds weird but with the schwa it sounds properly brok-(schwa-li) and we must consider only one syllable because the schwa sound for itself is not a syllable. Just in case, English is my second language.
Hello teacherI am Brazilian, and I am starting my studies to learn you English. and rather see native teachers of videos as well have a better learningI am really enjoying their required classes.
Easy on, Emma! Dropping syllables is ok in casual conversation, but there is nothing wrong with fully pronouncing them. I enjoy listening to non native English speakers when they speak correctly.
It's so lovely to finally put a face to the name "Emma" - i'm a trainee on radio in Nigeria and i check your page all the time for authority on pronunciations.
Hi, Emma! I'm from Brazil. Your classes are very important for me. I have improved my English because of you! Thank you very much! You're a treasure! Always excellence!
Thank you so much Emma for this WONDERFUL English lesson. Now I do realize of how many words I mispronounced before. Hugs from Mexico! and thanks for your INVALUABLE help!
It is only in pronunciation when we can say a word has less syllables. If we were playing charades, we'd say the words have the amount of syllables the written word suggests. I would prefer to say that we drop emphasize on certain syllables rather than the word has fewer syllables than it actually does. It is NOT incorrect to read these words out as they are written as we are not referring to silent letters here.
I just discovered your channel and Miss Emma I'm in love with this video, I'm an English teacher in Mexican elementary school and teaching syllables to sixth graders is always so difficult to me because of what you mention here, so this video will help me for sure when explaining this topic in the future!
I am sorry to tell you this but we have to correct our mistakes, I think there is a defferince, how you pronounce the word (comfortable) with some advanced dictionaries. please have a look and check. I might be wrong. thanks
my english so bad, anybody help me to speak english?

Thanks you so much for your videos, really I have been improving mine English. Before I pronounced wrong many words but thank you I correct my way I talk...you are a great teacher and A Diamond.....thanks
Thanks Emma! This was really helpful. The number of syllables depends mostly the way a particular word is pronounced. I didn't know about that. Keep on making interesting videos like this one. They do help a lot!
Thank you for the lesson Emma. This is a good reminder for me and some words I still pronounce them incorrectly, but I've been listening natives speaks a lot (including your videos and others as well) for so many years, that helps me so much. Thank you.
It's really weird for us who are Brazilian speaker 'cause the first thing you never pronouce the final "e" and it's enough to change the number of the syllable.. oh Dear!! And you put letters in the midst of the word that you don't use.. why??!! But I'm getting it 😅 Thank you very much Emma 👏👏👏👏
You are natural beauty .....and your the most interesting person..... I have ever seen......on you tube.Everyone loves your show.We are very pleased to see your spectacular videos.
Dear Emma, I really appreciated this lesson and I hope it won’t be the last one about pronunciation because I think it’s a key point for learning English. That said, I have a doubt on the word “comfortable”: why is it pronounced comf-ter-ble and not comf-ta-ble. Is it possible to pronunce it both ways? Thanks for your invaluable help :-). Andrea
That was really useful for me. I've been learning English since my childhood and now I know that I have mispronounced such basic words like comfortable or vegetable ;)!
teacher Emma, thanks! I love your lessons, and this one was really helpful for me... I always use these words and I 've always misspronounced them. I would like to know more words with silent syllables
This lesson and "Silent Letters: When NOT to pronounce B, D, and L in English" make my day. Thanks Emma!
Hi, I'm from Russia and I can tell you that we pronounce this words with mistakes because in this case it is easier to remember their spelling. We're trying to learn the correct spelling by repeating each syllable and then we make this mistake in pronunciation.

Да, вы правы, в русском мы произносим, как пишем. По привычке делаем это в английском, забывая о том, что там есть исключения
Important stuff. Nice lesson, Emma!

Jose Chavez the schwa sound is an unstressed syllable in every situation.
yes you're right but it doesn't count as a syllable, is part of the l sound in this case...
as I said, English dictionaries prove me right. and what is your source exactly?
brok - lee, the L sound is schwa+L, so the sound would be brok - schwaLee, the schwa alone is not a syllable. The dictionaries are right.
Hello teacherI am Brazilian, and I am starting my studies to learn you English. and rather see native teachers of videos as well have a better learningI am really enjoying their required classes.
You're my favorite English teacher
Easy on, Emma! Dropping syllables is ok in casual conversation, but there is nothing wrong with fully pronouncing them. I enjoy listening to non native English speakers when they speak correctly.
Also The word "Different" is pronounced as Di - Frent
It's so lovely to finally put a face to the name "Emma" - i'm a trainee on radio in Nigeria and i check your page all the time for authority on pronunciations.

God bless you Emma ! You guys help us a lot . "comfortable" was the most difficult word to be pronounced . You saved my life.
It is only in pronunciation when we can say a word has less syllables. If we were playing charades, we'd say the words have the amount of syllables the written word suggests. I would prefer to say that we drop emphasize on certain syllables rather than the word has fewer syllables than it actually does.

yeah . that's right !

I think there is a defferince, how you pronounce the word (comfortable) with some advanced dictionaries.
