category first vegetables vegetables but we're going to focus on correct clear pronunciation and let's start with the word vegetable say vegetable three syllables not vegetable it's not incorrect to use four syllables some people do but it's more common to hear vegetable vegetable here are 10 vegetables in English with focus on correct pronunciation we have carrot carrot notice how use the schah sound in the second syllable it not OT carrot not carrot then we have beetroot beetro broccoli broccoli that's hard one to spell with double one cauliflower cauliflower cabbage cabbage asparagus three schwar sounds there asparagus pumpkin pumpkin and spinach spinach not spinach spinach although it's usually plural peas and finally onion onion okay we've done our vegetables let's move upper level you're going to see 10 food items names and pictures and 10 letters that they contain that are silent try to match the silent letter or letters to the food pause the video if you need to are you ready for the answers first we have lamb lamb and this has silent lamb next salmon salmon this has silent in it in general we don't say salmon we say salmon next this one sandwich or sandwich prefer sandwich and if speak quickly often say sandwich with the sound we don't tend to pronounce the The is silent this one swordfish swordfish the is silent what about this one one donut donut and are silent and this is often spelled donut in North American English which is much closer to its pronunciation next SB SB with silent this delicious Berry raspberries we don't pronounce the this one controversial chocolate chocolate we don't tend to say chocolate with three syllables we say chocolate with two syllables so the is silent this one omelet omelet we have two silent there because it comes from French and notice two syllables omelet not omlet and the final one herb or Herb in American English so the is often silent in American English herb but in British English it is usually herb with the sound okay now we're ready to start comparing varieties of English and we're not just looking at British and North American English we're going to dive into some other varieties too are you ready what would you call these in British English we say sweets in North America English it's candy or candies and in Australian English lollies next what's this in British English it's an oine in North American English it's an eggplant and in Indian and South African English bringel bringel okay what's this in British English it's pepper it's bell pepper in North American English because it's shaped like bell and in Australian New Zealand and Indian English it's capsicum okay last one what would you call this in British English it's an ice lolly in North American English it's popsicle and notice the capital letter and the little trademark symbol popsicle is actually brand name that is often used for ice lollies and in Australian English it's an icy Pole very cute okay let's come back to Britain now I'm going to show you some of our best love dishes real British dishes I'll show you pictures can you name them this first one fish and chips fish and chips what about this one it's tikka masala normally chicken Tika Masala we love Asian Cuisine in the UK next this is my favorite had one this Sunday that's clue it's Sunday roast Sunday roast traditional meal that we have every Sunday next an English breakfast also often called full English full English breakfast this creative and elaborate dish that is my mom's favorite beans on toast beans on toast it's classic five minute dinner it's it's pretty affordable as well this one it's Cornish pasty and that's from Cornwall and it's meat and potatoes wrapped in pastry next shepherd's pie this is Lamb's mince with potato topping traditionally made with lamb because Shepherds look after sheep this this is the ultimate luxury in the UK If anyone makes you this they love you it's beef wellington beef wellington it's fillet of beef wrapped in pastry pie and mash pie and mash Mash is short for mashed potatoes and this one is such treat afternoon tea afternoon tea have you tried any of those meals let me know in the comments section know we aren't famous for our food in Britain but we do have few really nice meals I've put more information about these meals and the ingredients in the PDF you can click the link in the description box to download that okay next section we're going to look at some commonly confused used food words and as we just talked about tea let's begin with that we'll start with three commonly confused words for meals we have lunch dinner and tea when do we usually eat these meals well generally lunch is the meal in the middle of the day and dinner is the evening meal but in some parts of the UK particularly in the north of England dinner is the midday meal and tea is the evening meal it confuses me too and actually when was kid my mom who was born in the south of England always used to call my dinner tea think it's because had it earlier than she did with my dad so sometimes kids have tea and then their parents have dinner later even though we eat pretty much the same thing just in smaller portions so say lunch for my midday meal and dinner for my evening one but you might choose different words depending on what people around you say some of our friends say supper for dinner some people say tea for dinner here's another pair of commonly confused words we have to bake versus to roast so we bake and roast food in an oven but we can also roast food over fire we bake and roast different foods so we bake things like cakes muffins and bread and these Foods undergo transformation in the oven from liquid or dough to solid and we usually roast meat and vegetables and these foods are solid when they go into the oven and when they come out there are some exceptions we might bake cod the fish for example I've put the exceptions in the PDF so if you want to learn more about the exceptions download that two examples I'm going to bake cake for my mom's birthday but I'm roasting chicken for dinner two more confusing words we have salty versus Savory everyone loves sweet food apart from my dad for some reason everyone else loves sweet food but the opposite of that is it Savory or salty so many of my students say sweet and salty but actually the opposite of sweet food is Savory food Savory is broad category of food and it means anything that's not sweet salty food is more specific and it's used to describe food that tastes of salt like crisps so we'd say prefer Savory breakfast like eggs or bacon not salty breakfast unless you are specifically saying that you want your breakfast to be salty and my final pair of confusing words dessert and pudding dessert is general term for sweet food eaten after meal in some areas of the UK and other places around the world pudding or PUD for short is also sweet food eaten after meal so it's synonym for dessert but we can also use pudding to talk about certain dishes like sticky toffee pudding we wouldn't say sticky toffee dessert it's set name however pudding can be Savory too and we will see one later in the video and just to add to the confusion in North American English pudding is specific type of cold creamy dessert okay we've reached 50 Words which means we're halfway through the lesson let's move on to our next category we're going to dive back into pronunciation with two different exercises first we'll look at homophones I'm going to show you five pairs of words they have the same pronunciation but different spellings and different meanings for each pair want you to identify which one is the food which one is edible first muscles muscles which one is the food it's the first one muscles LS are small type of shellfish they have black shells and your muscles are here and all over your body they help you move next moose and moose the second one is food it's cold dessert made with eggs and cream it's quite light it's quite Airy the Moose with two o's is big deer that lives in North America next one cereal cereal the first one is food cereal with is often eaten for breakfast serial with an is story or program published in several parts stranger things is popular cereal now we call them series pair four we have chili and chili okay this time the food is the first one again chili with an is small hot vegetable it's normally spelled with one in North American English now if you're chilly with you're bit cold and the final pair leak and leak know which one I'd prefer to have under my sink the second one is the food leak and notice the long sound leak not lick leak is like long onion it's white at the bottom and it's green at the top it's also the national symbol of Wales and leak with EA is small hole or crack that lets liquid or gas flow out by accident okay for the second part of our pronunciation category we're going to look at some commonly mispronounced words here are some and CU words that students often find difficult to pronounce can you say them here are the first three with we have Kish Kish with Sound squid with qu sound and Crocket Crocket with Sound again and here are two words containing the letters this one really gets people biscuit that has Sound biscuit biscuit and the last one is cucumber with sound cucumber okay let's leave pronunciation for now and move on to our next category different food groups we're talking about protein and carbohydrates or carbs want you to divide 10 foods according to whether they are protein rich or carbohydrate Rich what do they have more of the foods are beef pasta pork chicken rice Bread Greek yogurt Banana Fish and oats pause the video now and try to categorize them okay here are the answers foods that are protein heavy beef pork chicken Greek yogurt and fish and foods that are carb heavy pasta rice bread banana and oats how did you do with those 10 next I'm going to show you the names of 10 foods and want you to tell me where they're from before tell you the answer and I'm only going to say one country for each but I'd love it if you could name some other country is where they are popular in the comment section we have poutin from Canada kimchi from South Korea love kimchi Pusa from El Salvador we have nassie Lama from Malaysia and fuu from Ghana had this when was there recently it was amazing know it's popular in lots of other West African countries too we have goulash from Hungary adobo from the Philippines we have Salo from Ukraine and fur from Vietnam and the last one seiche from Peru okay two more categories to go we have traditional British Christmas Foods look at this Christmas table this is everything we like to eat on Christmas Day we have turkey stuffing roast potatoes cranberry sauce Yorkshire puddings gravy Pigs in Blankets which are sausages wrapped in bacon everyone's favorites Sprouts also called brussel sprouts Christmas pudding and mince pies now brussels sprouts and Christmas pudding have bit of bad reputation people like to say that they don't like them but but love them or hate them they're nearly always on the table and it becomes very nostalgic for us okay our final category is the best category and I'm very biased love fruit if could eat fruit for the rest of my life and nothing else I'd be cool with that really would I'm going to show you 10 pictures of different fruits you can pause the video and try to name as many as you can let's name them with clear pronunciation we have strawberry strawberry an apple an apple passion fruit passion fruit love passion fruit but it's really hard to find good ones in the UK kiwi kiwi pineapple pineapple coconut coconut plum Plum blueberries blueberries fig and word number 100 is watermelon watermelon and had to end the video on watermelon as it is my favorite food in the entire world how many of those fruits did you manage to name correctly and out of all of those foods which one is your favorite or which one would you most like to try now as said there's lot of information that couldn't fit into this video so I've added it to the free pdf there go into
