I can't believe that I got 17 out of 20! It's quite elusive, but your 3-step system is very helpful. Thank you, Hadar. There are still more ways to go. 💪
Every time a link appear in my mail . I learn something very important with Hadar. Sticking the right syllable out make it possible to be understood , the primary stress is the key .
Hello teacher, I am studying English language teaching in Turkey. I watched your video. I really learned a lot and I got 3 mistakes from the quiz. Thank you very much.
as a speaker of a syllable-timed language, I didn't notice before that the stressed syllable is soooo important. For us it's more important to speak each syllable clearly, and the tone of the stress can vary if it is a question, an exclamation, a calling, a joke. But the big secret was understanding that other languages don't work like that, and I needed to adapt myself. Excellent video!
I wish I knew those tricks when I was a boy trying to identify the primary stress of words in my first language, at school. The way it clarifies the subject is surprising. Even more when I realize it's not just about English. The type of content I only find at Hadar's videos and podcasts.
I was able to identify the primary stress in all of the words you mentioned in the end. I went to the website to check my answers and I got all of the words right. Thank you so much for your amazing job. You're the best.
I never forget the first video of you that I saw, which was about how to pronounce the boroughs of New York about two years ago. From then on, I always follow you and you teach me a lot.
the most important!!!!! you are so right!!!! this is the reason that even though I know a lot of words, is very hard for people to understand me and for the same reason,i's hard for me to understand native english speakers you a excellent teacher. thank you so much!!!
I just love you....... The way you teach solves every minor problem that I face in english .....pls pls pls also teach us how to put stress on the right word and also the words like shuda ,wuda kind of letter tht Americans mix when they speak.... It's really easy to understand you and I really would recommend everyone if in case they really want to learn english then atleast see your video once..M sure they'll surely will fall in love with the way you make your lessons clear and easy .....Keep doing this .....God Bless you👍👍👍👌👌👌
I love your videos! Did you know you are my favorite youtube teacher!? God bless you! Thank you so much for all!! Greetings and blessings from Venezuela!!
Hadar, thank you for your excellent lesson on the importance of stress when pronouncing English words. It will be most helpful to your ESl students. I am myself an ESL student and after many years of struggling with the English language, I still feel unsure about where the main stress should be placed on a few choice words. Perhaps you might be able to help. Here are a few of the words in question; Formidable - Celebratory - Disciplinary - Preferable- Explicable- Contemplative- Communicative- Affluent- Ancillary- Exploitative- Irrevocable - Patina- Vagaries- Cerebral- Centenary- Chilean- Dirigible- Hospitable- ignominy- Impious- comparable.-- integral - Internecine - Desultory. preparatory- Proboscis. I know these are not common words, but knowing the correct or the most "educated" pronunciation would be helpful. Dictionaries show the variant pronunciations, but they are reluctant to indicate a preference. You need not respond to this request as I fully understand you are a very busy lady, but for the benefit of your students, you may want to discuss the pronunciation of some of the simpler, less esoteric words that your students are more likely to come across in their reading.
Ralph Otero, May I suggest searching these words in YouGlish. I got 1410 hits for "contemplative" most of which seemed to place the stress on the second syllable, which in my opinion is the most correct pronunciation. But that's just my opinion and pronunciation, like grammar, is descriptive, not prescriptive, (which is perhaps why dictionaries are reluctant to indicate a preference) so you get to decide for yourself based on what you find in a survey of a word's actual use.
Like you said you're the new sound of English, so learn English with your methods is like to know a tree since its root. Thanks for this video I really appreciated.
Hi Hadar. I found this video and your teaching really usefull for me, I´ve learned that a primary streesed syllave most be in the first syllave when the word has only two syllaves and it is a noun; and in the second syllabe when it´s a verb. Thank for be a excelent and motivating teacher and help me a lot through yor viedos, gmail texts and even through the In-fluency Community, where I have been participating since almost one month ago and posted 3 videos about your weekly topic discussions. Blesses (excuse me for my many grammar mistakes in my writeing, I´m trying not use google translator...)
Thank you Hadar; you are an inspiration! This is information learners really need to know, and your suggestions to use arm movements with practicing primary stress are so helpful. Pronunciation is a physical activity like dance, so associating it with other physical movements like arm raising brings it into the body where muscle memory can do its thing. Since seeing the video "Teaching Pronunciation: Seven Essential Concepts with Judy B. Gilbert | The New School" I've been a big fan of Judy Gilbert, and I ask learners to hold an elastic band and stretch it as they exaggerate the length of the primary stresses of content words, especially those that are also the peak stresses of sentences. I'll be sharing a link to this video with students.
Great Lesson! 🙂 I realised that in English word stress is much more important than in my native language, because in English if you misplace the primary stress, the pronunciation of vowels also changes, in Italian we have no weak forms, so it will sound a bit funny, but perfectly understandable to anyone, unfortunately the same is not true in English.
@hadar This is brilliant, somewhere in the back of my mind I knew this, but articulating it as well as you did, has brought it to my consciousness, and I intuitively feel this is going to help me learn my first new language better/ easier/ faster. You might like to use this comment, in your class to help illustrate this principle of stress. I'm a native English speaker from Adelaide, South Australia, where we tend to have more of an upper class British accent. I noticed about half way through this video (@10min02secs), you used the word concrete, and it sounded unnatural to me, as there was virtually no stress on the word at all. That is to say it was rather 'flat'. And it threw me for a bit, because I’m used to hearing primary stress on the first syllable. So there's a story for your classes in the future. The rest of your English was flawless though. Meanwhile, I've challenged myself to learn Khmer (Cambodian) as my first language. TH-cam is so good. The instructor is Dara. He has a great TH-cam channel that I’m learning from, as well a a few others. Anyway, he was talking about 'special correctors' that are used in the Khmer alphabet. I thought they corrected the sound. It took me three weeks to realise that they were actually 'special characters'. This is the third You Tube videos I'm watching after looking for IPA stuff to help me pronounce the Khmer alphabet/ words correctly. The first looked at vowels and was extremely helpful. Thanks. The second video I looked at was an interview you had with one of your students from Mexico, which was also very useful. Keep up the good work. And I’ll definitely be watching more of your videos. And recommending them to others. Wishing you all the best. Phil xo PS I'm learning my first new language at 52.
Great video Hadar! So I got all of them right. By the way, I made a series of video (7 videos) about this notion on a channel called "Polyglot Salva". So type "Polyglot Salva" to watch them and get every single rule about this notion.
OH MY FREAKIN GOD THE PUNCHING THING SOOOOO ON POINT TO MY UNDERSTANDING. Gonna save my exam with that.

Thank you Hadar Your class was great 🙏🥺💓☺️🥰
Hello, Hadar. In my opinion you are the best teacher of English. I used the wrong stress in the following words: Sitcom and Saturated.
Mine was saturated and psychology 😌
I was able to identify the primary stress in all of the words you mentioned in the end. I went to the website to check my answers and I got all of the words right.
Thank you so much for your amazing job.
You're the best.
Your heart is very kind. I understand.
I love that punching syllables concept. Great lesson! Thanks.
Excellent guidance on pronunciation. Thanks madam.
You trapped me from the very start ! Great example ... God Bless and keep it up !
Thank you, now I've learned how to identify the stressed.
Hadar , you are a 🌈 on my every day. today I comprehended more. about intonation and primary stress.! !!!
Wonderful!
