    As a native English speaker, albeit Australian English I struggle to pronounce a lot of words correctly including meteorological. So don't fell bad for having trouble pronouncing a word that even native speakers struggle with,
  • @davidseale8252
    I'm a 75 yr old Englishman and was expecting to get them all right. I got two wrong. One was a foreign food which I've never eaten but the other was Entrepreneur ! I have always pronounced it as Au - trepeneur so many thanks for clearing that up for me.
  • @brendanmarchal
    In my opinion, the (12) "Iota" should be prononced as it is. It's a latin word (coming from the greek) [yota or eeota] so you should prononce it good like you do for "Alpha" "Omega" etc...
  • You saying: I struggle with this word" It is so comforting. This was super fun. Spanish follower here 😅
  • @MsNINO6666
    As a native Greek,the Tzatziki isn't pronounced TSA TSI KI but TJA TJI KI (like we say Jungle) and meteorological(μετεωρολογικός) is also a greek word!Thank you Lucy...love your videos 🙏
  • @Rhys_Thorian
    that was great as always! only got indubitably wrong :) being german probably helps not stressing about the longer words
  • @josetom2736
    I got 10 right. I have learnt a lot. Thank you, Lucy.
  • Got all of them right. Indian here, who married into a white British family, and had to teach them the spelling of pigeon (they thought it was pidgeon, still not out of the 14th century in many ways).
  • I pronounced about half of the words wrong at first but after hearing it I was able to pronounce it right. Thank you very much for this lovely video Lucy 🫶🩷
  • @Luis674t
    English speakers speak english as they want. They pronounce a simple word like "bus" as they want depending the day of the week. Same with "bath" and many others. That's why they always ask you: ¿Could you spell it for me, please? I asked many People in the UK ¿How should I pronounce this surname? Or this Village? And they told me " I dont know, I've never heard it before". Amazing. In Spain everybody know how to pronounce every single word even if you've never seen that word.
  • @hi.panorama
    This is probably my favorite kind of lesson! :)
  • I am from India and I have English as my first language throughout. Still I get to know so many things. I even stayed in the US, France and China. Simply love this lessosns
  • @Gianmaria_
    The word "indubitably" killed me. :) So 14 out of 15 for me. Thank you Lucy!
  • As a native English speaker I find that when a learner speaks, I can understand them when they accent/emphasise the word on the correct syllable. This is much more important than almost any other aspect of pronunciation in my experience. Of course the problem is that there is no rule that tells us which is the correct syllable to emphasise! The only way to know is to hear the word or see where the stress is in a dictionary.
  • @irenetz86
    In Tzatziki the "tz" sound is like "j" in Jam. All my love and respect from Greece!
  • I was mispronouncing words like 'quinoa' prior to subscribing to your channel, but this time I got 15/15 correct pronunciations. Thank you for such helpful videos. ❤
  • @user-vu2jc4oj3p
    You really amazed me with these hard-to-pronounce words as per usual. Thank you, Lucy
