I've had Echinacea tea before. A unique flavor with definite floral overtones. Dandelion Root tea is also a healthy indulgence. Thanks for sharing this, Jade.
we have the same word in Slovak, spelled the exact same way however pronounced completely different. E (like Ellen) CH ( a "kh" sound non existing in Eglish, the harsh sound as if you choked - exists also in Hebrew or Arabic) I (like y at the end of the word easy) NA (with a as in Africa) CE ( tse or tze with E as in Ellen) A (again A as in Africa) Weird how many languages have exactly the same word, spelled the same way but completelly different pronounciation. If I didn't see the spelling and heard an English speaker, I'd have no idea he/she is saying echinacea.
Such lean words are very tough for non-native English learners. The spelling is the same, but the pronunciation is often very different. Even the stressed syllable changes. In German, we say [ɛçinaˈtseːa]. The [ç] quite special in German. It is when you say [ʃ] but then slightly pull back and lift the tongue (and separate the teeth).
It cures a cold in four days. Which is the duration of a cold. I wish that I had thought of it. My fave Greek word is spantopika. It is light pastry with cheese. Lovely.
That’s actually the only way I’ve ever heard it pronounced. It’s not a word I use every day, but I’m glad to know when I have said it, I’ve said it correctly! Thanks
@@annabeljames9759 yes, they do, vaccines prevent most deaths, no vaccine is a cure, but if enough are vaccinated viruses don't mutate and often in essence die off, look at mumps and whooping cough, they were basically eradicated until dumbasses decided vaccines were bad, now these diseases are coming back, vaccines work to help you better fight these illnesses, a vaccine doesn't prevent you from getting it, it helps you survive and not need a ventilator if you do get it
@@emilymulcahy I'm fully vaccinated and I trust them as a way to prevent most deaths. However, I'm talking about Echinacea as a way to avoid sympthons once you get Covid-19 and start to feel uncorfomtable.
@@j.i.delgado6968 no doll, nothing really does that, unfortunately, my aunt is a nurse practitioner and she says there's nothing you can do but treat the symptoms unless it gets really bad then go to the ER, but she said treatment is going to go about as well as the flu or a bad cold for some, some will not even show symptoms and some will die sadly, just try your best not to get it, wear your masks, use hand sanitizer, stay away from people and wash your hands often
You are guilty of hyperbole when your title claims "Nobody Gets This Word Right". You got it right. I've always got it right. Many others I know get it right. Therefore somebody gets it right, making your hyperbolic claim that nobody gets it right a nonsense.
I am Hassane Chetouane student JJ, keeping in the path of introducing myself as you do. How is it possible you gave this important lesson on all sides by Friday which is a holy day here as We go to the mosque?. Oh Jade you don't cease to astonish us by your continual progress 'keep working'.And now you gain in holiness. How will be Jade in years to come. Keep following.
Thank you, Jade. I never knew that 'echinacea' derives from the Greek word for 'hedgehog.' Btw, I have never heard echinacea pronounced in any other way....
I shared that reaction- per my earlier comment, I doubt I did encounter this word as a kid because that was the 70s and 80s and relatively fewer herbal remedies were universally being discussed. By the 2000s, everybody and his cousin was taking and talking about echinacea, so I heard it many, many timed before seeing it written.
People who are into herbal remedies and gardeners are likely to be familiar with this word already. For English learners and most kids learning to read, it will pose a challenge.
I don’t know if it’s just regional, but the Greeks I know don’t pronounce the CH as K, it actually is more of a H sound, like a scratch at the back of your throat, or a cat coughing up hairs.
I've watched and enjoyed a few of your videos. But, I have to take issue with this one. "Everyone gets this wrong" is just not right. I have always heard echinacea pronounced just as you have described, and have always done so myself. I have never heard the ch pronounced as it is in chair.
Probably you are from posh circles. 😆 I heard weird things when people try to read out foreign words. Just recently somebody read out Qatar as "cute R" in front of me. 😄
If I had seen this word as a little kid, applying generic English rules, I would have assumed the ch was pronounced tch, as in itch. Later, having been introduced to gutturals from ancestral Scots slang in the family, I would have assumed it was a guttural. Always I would have assumed the final c was soft but fully pronounced as s and not sh. So there you go. Etchinasea. Or maybe Eh[choking guttural noise]asea.

After seven or eight years its really exciting to see you again! I am really happy to reexplore your videos
Welcome back. 👍
When the Greeks finally left what is now Italy, they took the letter K with them! We now have to use CC or CH to get a hard K sound.
I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing.

Good info Jade!!!
Like Echinoderms - marine animals including starfish, which have "spiny skin".
Pronunciation at 2:10.
Akin-Asia
Easy
That’s actually the only way I’ve ever heard it pronounced. It’s not a word I use every day, but I’m glad to know when I have said it, I’ve said it correctly! Thanks
Where did you buy the t-shirt you are wearing?
The cat is called Pusheen. It has a TH-cam channel.
That's helpful! Thanks 😃
I have honestly never ever heard anyone pronounce this word incorrectly lol. 😐
Reminds me of Echinocyte, meaning a spiky hedgehog-resembling red blood cell.
I haven’t heard that word before. It shares the same root. 👍
If nobody gets it right, the question ‘do you?’ is irrelevant. If that one person does get it right, the word ‘nobody’ no longer applies.
*Gary Jones* It is, unfortunately, typical YT title hyperbole.
Thanks for transcription and history explanation packed in three minutes.
Echinacea. Only every used it for flowers. I've always assumed uncountable. xxx
I grow many echinacea (coneflowers) in my American flower beds; thank you for the video.
So helpful hand movement. Thank you.
And I love the sound in the beginning of your videos.
I really enjoy your channel. Thanks so much for the interesting pronunciation help!
You’re a natural teacher.
I've honestly never heard anyone pronounce it any other way. Maybe it's more commonly mispronounced in other countries?
An echcellent word.
Does anyone know if Echinacea is also useful to fight Covid-19?
No, get vaccinated!
@@emilymulcahy The vaccines do not work .

It's also known as purple cone flower..
Yes, I pronounce it correctly.
Jade can you say hi to the non students as well, at the begining of your lessons , please?
Very nice lesson.
Thank you Jade for this pronunciation and medicine or " pronun-medical " lesson!
I learnt about this very pretty flower for the first time from this lesson, thanks Miss!
Where is your accent from?
Info here: th-cam.com/video/IU4NwqVC4Zo/w-d-xo.html
thank you , teacher !
That was a bit long winded wasn’t it
Wonderful
I’ve just started the video and my guess is Ekinacia…
Woohoo I was right, at least I think I was 🤔🤷♂️
Thank you,🙏🕊️💓🌷🌺 greetings from Greece
Thanks for watching. 🙂
Thanks, Jade 👍💯😃
Greeting from 🇦🇷 Argentina 🇦🇷 😎
So nice
Thank U ma'am for the info

I'm taking it now) thank you!
Flippin ‘eck in Asia
I have had no idea of this until now
Sonic is smiling atcha
Hi Jade. That’s a new one on me. Never heard of it I have to be honest. If I had cold or flu I take VitaminC and D and Zinc. Toodle pip.
Echinacea in combination with the others you're taking does seem to help fighting a cold off in the early stages. Well worth trying.
Thank you :)
Everyone I know who has said it said it that way lol maybe it's a US thing to pronounce it right? Or maybe I just know a bunch of smart hippies lol
I love your voice.
It is undoubtedly a synonym for "totally useless".
Greek spelling in there? Do you mean pronunciation?
In Russian we also have this medicine. Эхинацея! :)

Hahaha when I first read this word , my mind thinking it will sounds like "E Chin Na Sia"
Diarrhoea, if you're really having trouble controlling your vowels.
Thanks! That's great!
So great like a Взлом Английского!
NEVER heard it pronounced any other way.
Should you not correct your own pronunciation to start with???????????????
I've watched and enjoyed a few of your videos. But, I have to take issue with this one. "Everyone gets this wrong" is just not right. I have always heard echinacea pronounced just as you have described, and have always done so myself. I have never heard the ch pronounced as it is in chair.
Yes, but the case is: you didn't know that your pronounce was the correct.
Probably you are from posh circles. 😆
I heard weird things when people try to read out foreign words. Just recently somebody read out Qatar as "cute R" in front of me. 😄
Welcome to the wonderful world of clickbait…
You are like a sleeping pill. 😩🤦🏼♀️
Oh, the irony.
The best cough drops are made of Echinacea!
That's just how you pronounce it in English. But it's not an English word. I pronounce the ch as the Dutch G or a Hebrew Chet.
If I had seen this word as a little kid, applying generic English rules, I would have assumed the ch was pronounced tch, as in itch. Later, having been introduced to gutturals from ancestral Scots slang in the family, I would have assumed it was a guttural. Always I would have assumed the final c was soft but fully pronounced as s and not sh. So there you go. Etchinasea. Or maybe Eh[choking guttural noise]asea.
It's pronounced "echinacea"
That's not hard to find the correct pronounce. I'd say I pronounced it correctly the moment I saw.
Hahahaaa just Latin pronunciation
wow, that is very different to the german pronounciation :D
