1
Here's a simple rule that will instantly improve your English pronunciation.
2
If a word ends in a suffix that starts with I, like I -F -Y or I -O -N,
3
this syllable right here is the key, because most of the time, this is the stressed syllable,
4
and this tells us exactly how to pronounce this word.
5
If you master this one pattern, you will know exactly how to pronounce hundreds of vocabulary words.
6
Don't worry, you don't need to learn hundreds of new words to do this.
7
In fact, there are tons of words that native speakers don't know.
8
And just like in your language, we know when something sounds right or wrong.
9
But this is more than just a feeling.
10
This is something you can learn.
11
So in this lesson, I'll explain exactly when and why we use this pattern.
12
So you too can correctly pronounce new vocabulary words that you encounter,
13
and you can create different forms of words that you already know.
14

15
Let's review a few very important things.
16
Words are made of smaller parts called syllables.
17
A syllable is a combination of sounds that contains only one vowel sound.
18
If a word has two or more syllables, one of them is always stressed.
19
A stressed syllable is easier to hear because it's louder, a little longer, and your voice is higher.
20
For example, let's look at the word academy.
21
This word has four syllables.
22
A -ca -de -me.
23
And we know this because there are four vowel sounds.
24
And the second syllable is stressed.
25
Academy.
26
Notice the vowel sounds in the first and third syllables.
27
Different spelling, but in speaking, they're both reduced to a schwa sound.
28
This happens all the time in English.
29
If a syllable is unstressed, there's a very high chance that the vowel will be reduced to schwa.
30
Knowing where the stressed syllable is,
31
is really important because sometimes when we change the form of a word by adding a suffix or a word ending,
32
the location of the stressed syllable can move.
33
When a stressed syllable becomes unstressed, or when an unstressed syllable becomes stressed,
34
this can change the pronunciation completely.
35
Let's compare the noun academy to the adjective academic.
36
Academic.
37
So what happened?
38
Now the third syllable is stressed.
39
So we pronounce the full vowel sound here with a short e -demic.
40
Also, the vowel in the second syllable changed.
41
It's not ca anymore.
42
It's kuh.
43
Unstressed with a schwa sound.
44
Academic academic.
45
So the big question here is, how do you know that?
46
Why does the word stress change?
47
Well, this is something that happens very often with suffixes that are Latin in origin.
48
In fact, the origin of most English vocabulary comes from Latin directly or indirectly via French.
49
If you speak a romance language like Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, etc., you have an advantage.
50
Maybe you need to change the spelling or change the suffixes a little bit, but you already know most of these words.
51
But you need to be really careful.
52
I often hear speakers of romance languages making more pronunciation mistakes because they try to use the stress patterns from their language,
53
not from English.
54
So remember that in English, we don't stress the suffix.
55
We stress the syllable immediately before the suffix.
56
So anytime you see these suffixes,
57
which we'll practice today, you will always know exactly how to pronounce that word with the correct word stress.
58
Let's continue with some more examples of the I -C suffix.
59
Anytime you see a word like this, you know that it's an adjective that was formed from a noun.
60
For example, if someone has a lot of energy, he or she is energetic.
61
Energetic.
62
If something has the power of a magnet, magnet, it is magnetic, magnetic.
63
An athlete is a person who's very athletic, athletic.
64
Next, let's talk about adjectives that end with the suffix I -C -A -L.
65
For example, the noun magic becomes the adjective magical.
66
In both words, the first syllable is stressed.
67
Magic.
68
Magical.
69
The next one is very important.
70
In English, when we talk about this subject, politics, politics, this is always a plural noun.
71
Just like the subject mathematics, you can study politics.
72
The first syllable is stressed, and this is a short O, politics.
73
So something that is related to politics is political.
74
Political.
75
So we move the stress from the first syllable to the second syllable in the adjective form.
76
The vowel in the first syllable is unstressed and reduced to a schwa.
77
Political.
78
Also, if you want to know exactly why the pronunciation of T changes in American English,
79
I highly recommend watching this lesson next.
80
If you're talking about something that's the usual type or representation of something, it is typical.
81
Typical.
82
Next, we have the subject of philosophy.
83
Philosophy.
84
This is the study of the meaning of life and why we exist.
85
Deep thoughts something that is related to philosophy is philosophical.
86
So you can have a philosophical argument, a philosophical problem.
87
You can be a philosophical person, etc. Let's keep going with our next suffix, i -a -n.
88
Now you will see two different variations of the spelling.
89
Sometimes c -i -a -n, sometimes s -i -a -n, both pronounced with a sh sound, shun.
90
Most of the time, this suffix refers to people who are professionals or specialists.
91
A person who plays or writes or performs music is a musician, music, musician.
92
A person who works in the field of politics is a politician.
93
Politician.
94
So the third syllable has the primary stress.
95
But notice that the first syllable has some secondary stress.
96
We don't reduce this syllable to a schwa like in the adjective political.
97
But it's not the main stress.
98
The primary stress comes immediately before the suffix politician, politician.
99
We also have a strong t -t sound there.
100
Okay, pay attention because my pronunciation is going to change in the next two examples.
101
Sometimes we separate these two vowel sounds and pronounce them independently with two syllables, i -in, i -in.
102
And this only happens when the sound before this suffix is voiced, like r or d.
103
Don't worry, our rule has not changed.
104
Just remember that this rule still applies if the suffix has more than one syllable.
105
Let's keep going.
106
A person who works in a library, library, is a librarian, librarian.
107
What's the name of a person who performs comedy?
108
A person whose job is to make you laugh.
109
That person is a comedian.
110
So comedy changes to comedian.
111
Next, we have a very useful suffix that forms adjectives from nouns or from verbs.
112
I -A -L.
113
You will see a couple of different variations of the spelling, including C -I -A -L and T -I -A -L.
114
A perfect example is special.
115
Special.
116
This is related to the word species, which describes a particular type or group of plants or animals.
117
Notice that I'm not saying special.
118
These sounds come together to form a sh sound.
119
And we really reduce that final vowel to the point where you really only hear the dark L sound.
120
Special.
121
Special.
122
Benefit.
123
Beneficial.
124
Benefit.
125
Beneficial.
126
Part.
127
Partial.
128
Part.
129
Partial.
130
Okay, you try the next one.
131
You can do something in confidence or something can be confidential.
132
This means secret or private, like confidential information, confidential documents,
133
etc. Next, an extremely useful suffix that forms nouns from verbs, I -O -N.
134
Again, you'll see two different spellings.
135
T -I -O -N, which is pronounced with a voiceless sh sound, shun, and S -I -O -N,
136
which is usually pronounced with a voiced j sound, shun, shun.
137
But there are exceptions, of course.
138
English always has exceptions.
139
So the verb create becomes the noun creation.
140
Create, creation.
141
You can decide something or you can make a decision.
142
Decision.
143
This changes from a long I sound in decide to a short I sound.
144
And we're pronouncing the voiced Z in decision.
145
Here's a really good spelling tip.
146
Anytime you see a Latin -based verb that ends with U -D -E in English,
147
the noun form will change to S -I -O -N.
148
The verb conclude changes to the noun conclusion conclusion.
149
Intrude, intrude changes to intrusion, intrusion.
150
Here's another tip for Latin -based verbs in English that end with I -B -E.
151
To create a noun, the B becomes a P, and then we add T -I -O -N.
152
So the verb describe becomes the noun description.
153
Describe with a long I, description with a short I in the stressed syllable.
154
Another example, the verb transcribe becomes transcription.
155
Transcription.
156
Your turn.
157
A doctor can prescribe something, prescribe, or you need a...
158
Prescription.
159
Prescription.
160
Almost done.
161
This is another extremely useful verb suffix for talking about making or causing to become.
162
And that is I -F -Y, pronounced as if I. If I.
163
For example, to make something simple is to simplify.
164
Simplify.
165
Now here's the noun identity.
166
Identity.
167
You can say identity, but it's very common in American English to drop the T after the N in an unstressed syllable.
168
To correctly show the identity of something is to identify.
169
Identify.
170
Or identify is also fine.
171
To cause someone to notice or become aware of something is to notify.
172
Notify.
173
And this is the moment when everything we've talked about comes full circle.
174
When something comes full circle, that means we return to an old idea, but with new context or new understanding.
175
We can take these verbs with I -F -Y and we can create the noun form.
176
And you will already know how to pronounce it because now you know the correct stress pattern.
177
So with these words, change the y to an i, add c -a, and then add t -i -o -n.
178
So what is the noun that describes the action of simplifying something?
179
Simplification.
180
Simplification.
181
Five syllables.
182
So again, Then the long vowel sound I becomes short, I in this unstressed syllable.
183
Simplify, simplification.
184
Identify changes to identification.
185
Identification.
186
Wow, six syllables.
187
And finally, to notify becomes notification.
188
notification.
189

דקדוק בסרטון הזה
המבנים שהדובר משתמש בהם הכי הרבה, עם המילים המדויקות מהסרטון:
| מבנה | בסרטון |
|---|---|
| סביל (Passive voice) be + past participle — הדגש הוא על מה שקורה, לא על מי שעושה את הפעולה | are made · is unstressed · was formed |
| משפטי זיקה (Relative clauses) who / which + clause — מידע נוסף על אדם או דבר | people who are · person who plays · person who works |
| הווה מושלם (Present perfect) have/has + past participle — פעולה שקרתה בעבר ועדיין יש לה חשיבות או השפעה עכשיו | has not changed · we've talked |
הגייה ששווה לשים לב אליה
הדובר משתמש ב-17 קיצורים וצורות מקוצרות, כמו don't, I'll, I'm. אמרו אותם בצורה הקצרה, כפי שאתם שומעים אותם.
- הצלילים של “th”: athletic /æθˈlɛt.ɪk/, athlete /ˈæθ.liːt/, mathematics /mæθ(.ə)ˈmæt.ɪks/
- הצלילים של “sh” ו-“zh”: schwa /ʃwɑ/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, shun /ʃʌn/, politician /ˌpɑ.ləˈtɪʃ.ən/, simplification /ˌsɪm.plɪ.fɪˈkeɪ.ʃən/
- מילים ארוכות — שימו לב להטעמה: pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, philosophical /ˌfɪl.əˈsɑ.fɪ.kl̩/, politician /ˌpɑ.ləˈtɪʃ.ən/, simplification /ˌsɪm.plɪ.fɪˈkeɪ.ʃən/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/
צלילים שדוברי עברית מתקשים בהם:
- /æ/ — פתוח יותר מה-“אֶ” העברית, לא כמו “a” ב-“cup”: adjective /ˈæd͡ʒ.ɪk.tɪv/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/, transcription /tɹænˈskɹɪpʃən/, magnet /ˈmæɡ.nɪt/, athletic /æθˈlɛt.ɪk/
- /r/ — הלשון לא נוגעת בשום מקום, לא ה-“ר” הגרונית: pronounce /pɹəˈnaʊns/, distress /dɪˈstɹɛs/, unstressed /ʌnˈstɹɛst/, pronunciation /pɹəˌnʌn.siˈeɪ.ʃən/, vocabulary /vəˈkæb.jə.lə.ɹi/
- עיצור קולי בסוף מילה — /b/, /d/, /g/, /z/, /v/ בלי להפוך אותם לאטומים: verb /vɝb/, adjective /ˈæd͡ʒ.ɪk.tɪv/, intrude /ɪnˈtɹuːd/, prescribe /pɹɪˈskɹaɪb/, transcribe /trænˈskɹaɪb/

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
