Hello everybody and welcome to learn English Live

My name is Steve Ford and I have two great questions from Syria and Ukraine.

命令形

Even though English can be a devil of a language with all of its exceptions and tricks

I know!  I am here to help you solve all of your doubts about  "finite" differences in pronunciation

So Elias from Syria has an excellent question about homographs

words that are spelledthe same way but depending on how they are pronounced they can change in meaning

So you need to look at how the word is used in the context of the sentence

For example, "I live in Vancouver, Canada" vs "I am talking to myself "live" here from Peppy studios with "Steve" on skype

There is a longer list on wikipedia for all of the homograph words which I will post below this video

Listening to native speakers of English talking fast, like news anchors and hollywood actors can be a huge listening workout

So when I think about the languages I speak and am learning: Portuguese, French, Spanish, Russian,

I can see all of them use something called Ellypsis

What's that? It just means that words are left out of a full sentence since they are understood among native speakers in any given language

Portuguese: nao sei, French: j'ai pas, Russia: ne znayu, Spanish: non sei

I'm sure there are many other languages out there that leave out words that are understood

please leave your comments below if this happens in your language

So you can see two examples of ellypsis here

"(are) you coming to the party? and "(I) don't know"

try to look for ellypsis more and more when you're watching the news, listening to music and of course watching movies

From our dialogue example there were some instances of leaving out the t's and g's such as

I talk until I am blue in the face to my private students about how native speakers of English here leave off the "t's

listen to the difference to textbook English and relaxed spoken English

As I said before, we often leave out the "g" in "ing" endings

just be careful when you use it because it's a friendly way of talking and wouldn't be used ALL of the time.

when she says in the dialogue, "I have to work tonight"

she doesn't say, I have to or have to work tonight

so you want to notice how those link together: have to(hafta). Other examples: could have(could'a), should have, (should'a), would have(would'a)

which I'm sure I've explained in other videos

it just makes speaking a whole lot faster

Well everybody I hope you enjoyed my lesson answering two great questions
