I am a 76 years old Hong Kong Chinese. I know all 15 words and can use them in writings, maybe also sometimes during conversation, but not frequently used !
In the midst of the grim situation, the team's camaraderie was both prevalent and pivotal, as they faced the intimidating challenge with a resolute demeanor, trying to circumvent the obstacle that threatened to hinder their progress, despite the blatant disdain of their opponents, whose actions only served to exacerbate the tension, adding a nuance of uncertainty that continued to baffle them.
You're welcome! Initially, I attempted to make it less abstract and more focused on the video, using the words in the order they appeared. However, that proved to be too challenging, so I wrote the above, which now sounds like overly abstract academic writing. I enjoy your videos. I took an English class in high school, but it was too boring, so I slept through most of it. I had no idea English was so difficult to learn! I learned English by listening to my parents speak in their living room while I crawled around the floor in diapers. Unfortunately, my parents have passed away, so that learning method is no longer available.
As a naturalized U.S. citizen who completed my undergrad n grad studies in Canada n the US, I’m relieved to see that I know all of them. Phew… 😂😂😂 love your real life demos. Good job 👍
I have exactly the same reaction! Ever since I immigrated to the US, learning the language was on my priority list. And knowing all 15, using them fluently is my reward 😀
I'm a children's writer from India. I've always wanted to publish my works in English, but I've always been sceptical about my English skills. Your lessons have helped me a lot in boosting my confidence. Thank you.
I’m a west African francophone who grew up learning English, I’m so very glad I found your channel through TH-cam recommendations and it’s helping me, I’m a polyglot, I love English language ❤
I get confused about the following words when i was watching this video 1. grin vs grim 2. intimate vs intimidating 3. excruciating vs exacerbate Now the obstacles are gone. Thanks Jenifer ❤❤
Teacher Jennifer, That's right!👍 Thanks for sharing these 15 words for excellent English!🔥 I appreciate all your hard work in teaching the nuances of English with fine examples.🧡 I don't want to be intimidating when speaking with natives.👍 because your prevalent videos help to break down my English speaking obstacles.😇 So, I think I've circumvented my English fluency challenges.😎 I'm happy to say that your English channel is pivotal to my English fluency.😃🧡 You rock.🤩
I’m Indian. I got everything correct. I thought the words were very easy, but I expected an easy challenge since I took the GRE many years ago, which requires exceptional vocabulary and synonym interpretation skills - even when you’re unsure of the word’s exact meaning (smart guessing starts with determining if the word has a positive, negative, or neutral connotation). All the best, folks!
That's true. English speakers think that the longer word the more difficult is, and the reality is the opposite. Lots of "complicate" words are the easiest.
Hi Jennifer! Thank you so much, this lesson's structure was brilliant! That's right, indeed! Spot on, JForrest is pivotal to my English fluency! I look forward to knowing if I'm "in the know" of these words. Ok, let's dive in! Examples: 1) The future prospects of the company were grim. 2) Complex physics and maths are "all Greek to me". They really baffle me! 3) Her demeanor is natural and easy on the eye. 4) They've experienced a lot together. Hence, they have a strong bond and camaraderie. 5) I have acrophobia, so skydiving would be a very intimidating experience for me. I wouldn't do that! 6) In tropical countries, torrential rain is prevalent in monsoon season. 7) The company's blatant disregard for safety is concerning. 8) I've noticed that being resolute helps you in your life. 9) It's clear that poor planning and sloppy workmanship hinder our success. 10) If you face a big obstacle in your life, don't get petrified! Eventually, you have a good chance to sort it out. 11) Unfortunately, some dictatorial countries have found a way to circumvent sanctions. Moreover, it's so sad that they don't respect human rights. 12) Your being a stickler for details and mulishness only exacerbates the problem! Don't make a mountain out of a molehill! 13) Understanding the nuances of local customs and culture, helps you "find your feet" in your new home country. 14) He's stuck-up and looks others down his nose with disdain. 15) As a foreign language student, having good motivation, studying English regularly, and having good learning methods are pivotal to reaching fluency in English. Almost all of these words are in my "passive vocabulary". It seems that I haven't yet reached the level where I could use them actively. Totally new words for me were: blatant, exacerbate, and somewhat disdain. To sum up, my English language skills are not too bad! I'd say "pivotal" is my favorite word!
Thank you Jennifer, great video. French native speakers have usually a lot of difficulties to understand the meaning of phrasal verbs but oddly enough understand fairly simply these more academic English words that come from the Anglo normand or French language. E.g.: "Camaraderie" is a french word used in everyday conversation That's right 🙂
I love learning new words & going back & studying ones I do know. I am a stickler for grammar. Thank you for your video. I enjoyed it. I enjoy learning. Even at the age of 68! 😊
Well I have been keenly devoting to a better vocabulary and its subtle use to influence the effectiveness of my English language fluency now for so many years since my schooling; as my father always guided and advised me to enhance it if I wanted to impress the others in literature and my academic quality and eventually be successful in educational carrier. I appreciate the way you are teaching the correct pronunciation and usage of good vocabulary to the interested at large through your channel !! Thanks !!!
Actually it is because of the Normans domination that occurred in the XI century in England. They came from Normandy in France, with the king William I of Normandy and for a long period of time the language spoken in England was the Anglo-Norman. So many French words were introduced into the English language. They are intelligible in Italian too, due to the common Latin root between french and italian
I have known these words,their meanings and their usage.Thank you,madam, for the opportunity to refresh myself with these words through your educational program.
Your lessons are so PIVOTAL 😊 to someone like me -to a none-native English speaker!! Thank you very much for very balanced and interesting video! I love words! I think they carry a huge meanings to express our, "humanly" emotions, and are so important to understand better one's mindset! I have never learned English academicly at any institution, but my love for the learning, and someone like you, means a lot to me! Thank you for doing these video sessions!❤
"Intimidating" is an interesting one. "Timid" means easily frightened. "In" as a prefix can mean "not" but in this case it means "to make". This is a good example of how context clues help to work out the meaning of a word.
English is an prevalent language. Practice speaking English everyday is a pivotal deed. It creates a habit and habit makes speaking English no more obstacle. Thank you for the lesson!
Thank you very much for bringing the words to my attention. In fact, none of them is new to my ears. Yet I know over 10 of them very clearly. Thank you
I knew all those words. I defined them differently, sometimes in my mother tongue, but it was easy to me to identify them. But the best way to recognise them is when they are in a context, in a string of words that make sense.🙂
Mine is "pivotal" even if I already knew this word, it remains good for me as it gives a little boost to progress in every field of my life. Just thinking of this word helps me to find the "pivotal" step to take...
I love your video. It is the first time from know I will be a regular of your video, I am a French speaking 82 yrs woman. I am tying to translate in French at the same time. I hope you will be correcting me for the mistakes in my message. Thank you just love it 😍 you should know my difficulties is the pronunciation .

These are foundational words instrumental in a very powerful lexicon. Thank you. There was a blatant deficiency in my colloquial vernacular And now I'm resolute in changing my demeanor and learning this s***
There were some words I met before but totally forget them as I seldom made use of them as well as I heard them but did not pay attention when them stopped by and said hello😄. It was always numerous nuances amongst the similar words that made higher level of using English in better expression. Thank you very much for sharing. I hope I could remember half of these words and be able to use them properly. Thanks again⚘
Thank you so much Ms. Forrest. I appreciate a lot for sharing your knowledge regarding these advanced topics and I hope the best for you in the near future. Thanks again and HAVE A GREAT DAY....!
Your teaching process has a pivotal role in my life. I knew that even if I didn't know all these words ,I was still in process, and it was a long-term aim !
Thank you teacher for your pivotal lessons! My favourite new word is "resolute". I am resolute in my decision to improve my English and your teaching will definitely help me overcome all the obstacles. That's right! :)
I know some of them, but the most important thing is straightening out my pronunciation! Watching and listening to your lessons are crucial for improving my English 😊! Thanks from my ❤️!
So perfect and easy to help people to learn a proper English, especially as the second language we use every day in every day's life. Thank you kindly.
Im new at this channel.. From Malaysia. But had been learning English since 7 yrs old.. Now learning the japanese language which is a challenge. I really hope our country's politicians are good English speakers.. Hoping they come across your channel.. I have forwarded your u tube channel to my family.. Thanks you so much.. Just subscribed
Thanks so much for subscribing, @samsiahabdullah9164! It's so great to have you in our community! 😁🙌 Yesterday I posted a video sharing an easy method to become fluent in 2024. I hope you enjoy it: th-cam.com/video/lZdQXX3hdxA/w-d-xo.html
I came to the US in '90. It was a culture shock. For example: I was baffled to how young people address older people by their first name. English speakers showed some disdain to us since we could not speak English fluently. To counter that, i found comfort socializing among my countrymen . I enjoyed their companies and camaraderie. Because of lacking of understanding the language nuances and the intimidating experience communicating in English with native speakers, it hindered lot of employment opportunities. In addition, the economy was somewhat grim at that time. I was resolute to overcome these obstacles and got my college degree. It was a pivotal moment after I graduated. New doors opened for me after that. Nowadays, with the prevalent of internet, useful lessons like yours are accessible to everyone. It helps to bridge cultures.
Thanks for your interesting review. In Norway camaraderie often is used in a sort of corruption where for example public jobs are not advertised but instead given to good friends. Best wishes from Arne in Norway
Yes , thanks 😊 a lot , you are my new English Teacher , I like the word camaraderie too , since long time back I wrote down this word in my notebook , but always forgotten the meaning 😢
I know all 15 of them. They are actually very easy for me, this is because I’ve been in the US for a very long time, much longer than the years I’ve spent in Taiwan, my motherland.
I only knew the words with a similar one in Spanish, and I know that I like your videos the most. So yeah, give me more, Jennifer. Give me more videos.
I found that most of the "difficult" words in English are common words in Portuguese, with minor modifications. Among the words, except for the cognates, the only word whose meaning I remembered from context was 'blatant'. English - Portuguese camaraderie - camaradagem intimidating - intimidador prevalent - prevalecente blatant (escancarado) resolute - resoluto obstecle - obstáculo exacerbate - exacerbar nuance - nuance disdain - desdenho pivotal - pivô
I knew three of these words: intimidating, obstacle and nuance. The word I like the most is camaraderie as welll. You got a new subscriber. Let's keep doing our best!
Forrest . Great knowledge. Thank you. It was really a nice feeling to have seen some putting things so effectively and comfortably to make one understand. Regards.
I've studied, worked, communicated, watched, and read in English for more than two decades, and I never noticed the word 'grim,' such a simple adjective, until this video. Fortunately, even though I don't use most of them, I'm familiar with most of the other words in the video, and that's some consolation.
Thank you for this presentation. I'm not an English native speaker, but I feel I know all the 15 words, meaning and use. It seems, most of them are of the negative essence except Pivotal, either way. But I can't pronounce them quite perfectly. Ha ha ha. I'm practicing.
Jennifer is a such a wonderful teacher 🎉❤ always coming back to your classroom for the quality and well put course content 🙏 grateful for all the hard work 🎉
I am from Uruguay, 85. Years ago I saw a BBC video stating that English actually grabs words from other languages like French, German, etc, and that's why it's such a rich tongue
There are more Greek words of Greek origin in the English language than any other language. Greek is the only language that you can write an essay in English using words only from Greek origin
English is a clone language made up from borrowed words from other languages. It's grammar is based mainly on memorizing words instead of structural grammar rules. Unlike the Greek grammar which has a syntax structure and every syllable is defined with grammar rules leaving no ambiguity in spelling and pronunciation.

Why do you pronounce the word as 'Gram' when it is supposed to be pronounced as "grim' ? That 's a bad pronunciation.

You sound lying😂
Thanks a lot!👍
Out of the fifteen words, I only know two words😢

And you do not. No native speaker of English would writethe way youdid.

All the best, folks!
Amazing job! So glad you enjoyed the lesson, @someone8323 ❤️
Your test is very easy for italians, spanish, french and so in, because most of the words come from latin. Only “baffle” baffled me.
That's true. English speakers think that the longer word the more difficult is, and the reality is the opposite. Lots of "complicate" words are the easiest.
Great point!
@mariogriffey1297, you are correct. This was a very easy test for me as well, as I am a native French speaker and studied Latin. I also speak Spanish.
I agree
And if you did not know that a lot of Viking,s came to England , the word hinder comes from that Danish word hindre.

I came to the US in '90. It was a culture shock. For example: I was baffled to how young people address older people by their first name. English speakers showed some disdain to us since we could not speak English fluently. To counter that, i found comfort socializing among my countrymen . I enjoyed their companies and camaraderie. Because of lacking of understanding the language nuances and the intimidating experience communicating in English with native speakers, it hindered lot of employment opportunities. In addition, the economy was somewhat grim at that time. I was resolute to overcome these obstacles and got my college degree. It was a pivotal moment after I graduated. New doors opened for me after that. Nowadays, with the prevalent of internet, useful lessons like yours are accessible to everyone. It helps to bridge cultures.
Great job practicing!
I admire you. Perfect English.
From Pakistan,I know the meaning and expression of all the words. Thanks.... It's excellent indeed
You're welcome, @user-bo5tx9zn4v! 👍
That right! Thank you! That right! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You're welcome, @nancytam3509! 👍
Thanks for your interesting review. In Norway camaraderie often is used in a sort of corruption where for example public jobs are not advertised but instead given to good friends. Best wishes from Arne in Norway
You're the best ❤️
JForrest English is pivotal to my English fluency.
Thank you so much for your sublime lessons ❤

Excelente video. Me gusta mucho aprender nuevas palabras en inglés. Mi nombre es Darío Mendoza (USA).

You can use the word baffle as a noun, example " he installed a baffle" They installed a baffle to deflect or screen off dirt ect.😊

너무 좋아요 excellent very good
Thank you so much! 😊
I know all 15 of them. They are actually very easy for me, this is because I’ve been in the US for a very long time, much longer than the years I’ve spent in Taiwan, my motherland.
That's interesting! Great job 👍🏻
I only knew the words with a similar one in Spanish, and I know that I like your videos the most. So yeah, give me more, Jennifer. Give me more videos.
Awe, thanks! And it's always nice when languages have related words!
I know 14/15. camaraderie..is new to me. thanks teacher
Great job! You're welcome 🤗
I found that most of the "difficult" words in English are common words in Portuguese, with minor modifications.
Among the words, except for the cognates, the only word whose meaning I remembered from context was 'blatant'.
English - Portuguese
camaraderie - camaradagem
intimidating - intimidador
prevalent - prevalecente
blatant (escancarado)
resolute - resoluto
obstecle - obstáculo
exacerbate - exacerbar
nuance - nuance
disdain - desdenho
pivotal - pivô
Thanks so much for sharing, @westleah5000! 😄
You are great 👍 Thank you I did learn few more new words 😁 hopefully see you again ❤❤❤
Thank you! 😃
I knew three of these words: intimidating, obstacle and nuance. The word I like the most is camaraderie as welll. You got a new subscriber. Let's keep doing our best!
Thanks so much for subscribing, @AntonioAdalid-bi8tg! It's so great to have you in our community! 😁🙌
Thanks for expounding your knowledge it was enlightening and fun
You're the best! 😘
Forrest . Great knowledge. Thank you. It was really a nice feeling to have seen some putting things so effectively and comfortably to make one understand. Regards.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I've studied, worked, communicated, watched, and read in English for more than two decades, and I never noticed the word 'grim,' such a simple adjective, until this video. Fortunately, even though I don't use most of them, I'm familiar with most of the other words in the video, and that's some consolation.
Very good! Thanks for sharing ☺️
Teaching method is simple and easily can be learned. Thank you.
So glad you enjoyed the lesson, @rajenlama.6850 ❤️
Cmon, these were quite easy. Amply familiar with all 15.
A Brazilian , studying, reading, using English extensively for the last 60 years.

Thank YOU Jennifer 😊
My pleasure! 😘
MashaAllah, Excellent for Learning English Language, God Bless you, AMEN.
You're the best! 😘
Thank you for this presentation. I'm not an English native speaker, but I feel I know all the 15 words, meaning and use. It seems, most of them are of the negative essence except Pivotal, either way. But I can't pronounce them quite perfectly. Ha ha ha. I'm practicing.
You're very welcome ❤️
correct, correct, and correct!
WHOO HOO! 🥳
Jennifer is a such a wonderful teacher 🎉❤ always coming back to your classroom for the quality and well put course content 🙏 grateful for all the hard work 🎉
May I raise a small quest for making a video on “easily mixed up words such as PERVASIVE/ PREVALENT / UBIQUITOUS “ thank you very much ❤
You are so welcome! ❤
I am from Uruguay, 85. Years ago I saw a BBC video stating that English actually grabs words from other languages like French, German, etc, and that's why it's such a rich tongue
Thank you for sharing that!
There are more Greek words of Greek origin in the English language than any other language.
Greek is the only language that you can write an essay in English using words only from Greek origin
English is a clone language made up from borrowed words from other languages.
It's grammar is based mainly on memorizing words instead of structural grammar rules.
Unlike the Greek grammar which has a syntax structure and every syllable is defined with grammar rules leaving no ambiguity in spelling and pronunciation.
I'm really happy 🎉🎉🎉by your teaching ❤❤ thank you so much 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I'm so glad!
Thank you Ms. Forrest, l have learned 9 new words in English…❤❤❤
That's great! I'm so happy to hear that 😊
That's indeed,your lessons are pivotal with our English fluency
I'm so glad ❤️
