Say thank you and buy me a coffee: ko-fi.com/learnacademicenglish ❤
The stress rules for suffixes -eer, -ee, ese, and ique were entirely new to me. I genuinely appreciate you sharing such an insightful and valuable lesson with us.🙏
So glad to hear that you learned something new! Thanks for sharing 😊❤
Stress Rules on compound nouns, phrasel verbs, reflexive pronouns and compound adverbs are new to me.
The lesson is amazing! I've always had confusion in using word stress but today it's cleared. Thank you so much for coming up with this topic ma'am.
That's great to hear! Thanks for sharing 😊❤
A great lesson, Jenna! Thank you so much! ❤ Could you please make more videos like this?
And I have a question, what about the word "photography"? The stress is on the second syllable. Is there also a rule to follow?
Thanks for the feedback! Please check out my pronunciation playlist for many more videos about word stress and other related topics. Great question about photography, and yes, there is a rule for that one. It's the same as #7 mentioned in this video. The stress is on the syllable before the suffix. photOgraphy, biOgraphy, etc.
amazing thank you so much ❤
You're welcome 😊
Thank you for making educational videos like this. Would you please make a video on adverb participial and adjective phrases and their functions separately
OK, I will look into those suggestions. In the meantime, please check out my video about reduced adverb clauses: th-cam.com/video/GNYFw_pprPc/w-d-xo.html
I struggle with -ive adjectives like cooperative, imaginative as I think it has long a like cooperAtion, but in fact it is not. So I have to check the pronunciation of every -ive word maybe I used to mispronounce it. Is there a rule for them?
Good question! the suffix -ative does not change the stress of the original word. imAgine --> imAginative
I hope that helps!
