Pronunciation & Shadowing Courses
Are you ready to practice your pronunciation with some longer words? The ones we’ll practice today all have 5 syllables – like the word vocabulary: vo-CA-bu-la-ry, with the stress on CA.
I’ll say each word twice – once a little more slowly with some separation between the syllables, and then once at normal speed, and I’d like you to repeat after me both times.
If you’re ready to improve your pronunciation FAST, come join my Pronunciation and Shadowing Courses. My pronunciation course will train you to pronounce all the sounds in the English language clearly and correctly, and then the shadowing course helps you practice saying whole phrases after me. There’s a discount when you join both courses together.

If you’re not sure what some of those words meant, you can just look them up in the dictionary – the purpose of today’s lesson was just to learn how to pronounce them. I recommend doing this video one or two more times so you can practice more.
And remember, you can get lots more practice inside my pronunciation and shadowing courses, which are designed to help you speak English more clearly, confidently, and correctly.
