I recommended it in a previous video

Saya menyarankan pada video sebelumnya

and you guys seemed to really, really like it,

dan kalian tampak sangat, sangat menyukainya,

so I thought I would mention it again.

jadi aku pikir aku akan mengingatkannya lagi.

The one great thing about audiobooks is

Hal terbaik mengenai audibook adalah

you can practise your listening,

kalian bisa melatih kemampuan mendengar,

but you can also practise your pronunciation,

dan juga kalian bisa melatih pengucapan kalian,

because you're listening to a native person read the book.

karena kalian mendengarkan seorang native membacakan buku.

And if you buy the actual book as well,

Dan jika kalian membeli buku aslinya,

it's like you've got a complete listening exercise.

itu seperti kalian mendapatkan pelatihan mendengar secara komplit.

Anyway, let's start with the lesson.

Bagaimanapun juga, mari kita mulai pelajarannya.

Today, I'm going to talk about

Hari ini, saya akan berbicara mengenai

the difference between is and it's.

perbedaan antara 'is' dan 'it's'.

Now, before we get started,

Sekarang, sebelum kita memulai,

I want to just quickly talk to you

Saya ingin secepatnya mengatakan kepada kalian

about the pronunciation of these two words.

tentang pengucapan dari kedua kata tersebut.

Because I hear a lot of people saying "ees," "eets."

Karena saya mendengar banyak orang engatakan "ees" dan "eets".

Both of these are incorrect.

Keduanya ('ees' dan 'eets') salah.

It should be firstly "ih," a short vowel sound.

Seharusnya itu "ih", sebuah suara vokal pendek.

Not "ee," "ih."

Bukan "ee", tapi "ih".

So that's the first mistake corrected.

Jadi itu adalah pembetulan kesalahan yang pertama.

"Ih," not "ee," "ih."

"Ih", bukan "ee". "ih".

Stop the voice with your throat.

Hentikan suaranya dengan tenggorokanmu.

"Ih," "ih.

"ih", "ih".

"Ee," "ih."

"ee", "ih".

Okay?

Oke?

See if you can guess what I'm going to talk about next,

Lihat jika kamu bisa menebak apa yang akan saya katakan selanjutnya,

regarding the pronunciation of the two words.

berkenaan dengan pengucapan kedua kata tersebut.

Is.

"is"

It's.

"it's"

Is.

"is"

It's.

"it's"

They end with a different phoneme,

Mereka diakhiri dengan fonem yang berbeda,

even though the phonemes are represented by the letter S.

walaupun fonem tersebut direpresentasikan dengan huruf S

So is is a voiced, "zzz," sound;

jadi pengucapan "is", menggunakan bunyi "zzz";

it's, unvoiced "sss" sound.

"it's", bunyi "sss" tidak disuarakan.

So "iss" doesn't exist.

Jadi pengucapan "iss" tidak ada.

It's is, is, it's.

"Is", "it's"

Is, it's.

"Is", "it's".

Now if you apply this to your speech,

Sekarang jika kamu menerapkannya dalam pembicaraan kalian,

you will instantly sound more native.

Secara instan kalian akan terdengar lebih seperti native.

Now the next error that I want to correct

Sekarang kesalahan selanjutnya yang ingin saya perbaiki

with these two little words

mengenai dua kata kecil ini

is the repetition of the subject.

adalah pengulangan dari subjek.

Don't repeat the subject.

Jangan mengulangi subjek.

Spain it's wonderful.

"Spain it's wonderful."

Spain is wonderful.

"Spain is wonderful."

Which one is correct?

Manakah kalimat yang benar?

What is the subject of this sentence?

Apakah subjek dari kalimat ini?

The subject is Spain.

Subjeknya adalah "Spain".

If I say "Spain it's wonderful,"

Jika saya mengatakan, "Spain it's wonderful,"

I'm actually saying "Spain it is wonderful,"

Saya sebenarnya mengatakan "Spain it is wonderful,"

and that means I've got two subjects.

dan itu berarti saya menggunakan dua subjek.

I have repeated the subject.

Saya mengulangi subjeknya.

So the it is not necessary.

Jadi itu tidak perlu.

Spain, subject, is wonderful.

"Spain", subjeknya, "is wonderful (luar biasa)".

Now, compare these two sentences:

Sekarang, bandingkan dua kalimat berikut:

Today is sunny.

"Today is sunny"

Today it is sunny.

"Today it is sunny"

What's the difference?

Apa perbedaannya?

Which one is incorrect?

Manakah kalimat yang salah?

Neither of them are incorrect.

Tidak ada yang salah di antara keduanya.

Both of them are correct.

Keduanya benar.

Today it is sunny.

"Today it is sunny."

"It" refers to the weather.

"It" menunjukkan cuaca.

Today is sunny.

"Today is sunny".

A very slight difference, so be careful with that.

Perbedaan yang sangat kecil, jadi hati-hatilah terhadap itu

What does the "it" refer to?

Apa yang ditujukan oleh "it"?

Another error that I hear made by Spanish speakers a lot

Satu kesalahan yang saya dengar dilakukan oleh pengguna bahasa Spanyol kebanyakan

is "no is," okay?

adalah "no is", oke?

I had a wonderful, wonderful student, an amazing academic.

Saya memiliki seorang murid yang sangat luar biasa, luar biasa dalam akademik.

If you gave him anything to do with computers,

Jika kalian memintanya melakukan apapun dengan komputer,

he would just sort it out, it was amazing.

dia akan melakukannya, itu sangat luar biasa.

But he couldn't get it into his head that it's not "no is."

Tapi dia tidak bisa menerima bahwa itu bukan "no is".

It is "it's not," or "isn't."

itu seharusnya "it's not", atau " isn't".

But because in Spanish you say "no es," "no es asi,"

Tapi karena dalam bahasa Spanyol kalian mengatakan "no es", "no es asi",

some people's brains want to say in English "no is,"

pikiran beberapa orang tanpa sadar mengucapkan "no is" dalam bahasa inggris,

because it sounds so similar, doesn't it?

karena mereka terdengar sama, tidakkah demikian?

"No es," "no is," "no es," "no is."

"No es", "no is", "no es", no is".

But this isn't, isn't, isn't the case.

Tapi ini "isn't", "isn't", "isn't".

If I was to say "No es, no es el," for example,

Jika saya mengatakan "No es, no es el," sebagai contoh,

I have to say "It's not him,"

saya harus mengatakan "It's not him," #(Bahasa Spanyol) No es el = It's not him (Bahasa Inggrisnya)

or "It isn't him."

atau "It isn't him".

I can't say "No is him."

Saya tidak bisa mengatakan, "No is him".

It doesn't exist.

Kalimat itu tidak ada (dalam kaidah bahasa inggris)

Now, for some people that might seem quite basic.

Sekarang, untuk sebagian orang yang mungkin masih dasar.

It's hard not to translate things

Suatu hal yang sulit untuk tidak mengalih bahasakan sesuatu

directly from your own language.

secara langsung dari bahasa ibu kalian.

"No," "no."

"No," "No".

"Es," "is."

"Es," "is".

I can totally understand why a Spanish speaker

Saya bisa memahami kenapa orang yang berbahasa Spanyol

would translate "no es" as "no is,"

menerjemahkan "no es" sebagai "no is",

but take it from me, it's not correct,

tapi ambil pelajaran dari yang saya katakan, hal itu salah,

and if you want to speak and sound like a native,

dan jika kamu ingin berbicara dan terdengar seperti seorang native,

then you need to start saying "it isn't, isn't."

maka kamu perlu untuk mulai mengatakan "it isn't, isn't".

She isn't nice.

"She isn't nice" (Dia tidak baik)

It isn't good.

"It isn't good" (itu tidak bagus)

It's not fair.

"It's not fair." (Itu tidak adil)

Right, so the points you need to take away

Baik, jadi poin yang perlu kalian ingat

from today's lesson.

dari pembelajaran hari ini.

Pronunciation.

Pengucapan

It's, is.

"It's", "is".

It's, is.

"It's", "Is".

"It's" is "it is" together.

"it's" adalah "it is" yang digabungkan.

So "is" has no subject, and "it's" has the subject.

Jadi "is" tidak memiliki subjek, dan "it's" memiliki subjek.

"It" is the subject.

"It" adalah subjeknya.

"It" is the subject in "it's."

"It" adalah subjek untuk "It's".

Hoo, this is quite a difficult topic to explain!

Hoo, ini merupakan topik yang cukup sulit untuk dijelaskan.

It seems so simple, but actually it's not simple.

Itu terlihat sangat sederhana, tetapi sebenarnya tidak sederhana.

The next point, be very, very careful

Poin selanjutnya, berhati-hati

when repeating the subject.

ketika melakukan pengulangan subjek.

Do you need to repeat it?

Apakah kau perlu untuk mengulanginya?

The answer is almost always no.

Jawabannya kebanyakan selalu mengatakan tidak.

Spain is different.

"Spain is different",

Spain it's different.

"Spain it's different"'

Which one is it?

Yang manakah yang benar?

It's "is," because Spain is the subject.

Yang benar adalah "is", karena "Spain" adalah subjek.

And then the final point,

Dan poin terakhir,

with the negative, it's never "no is,"

dengan bentuk negatif, tidak pernah ada "no is",

it is always "it is not," "it's not," "it isn't."

bentuknya selalu "it is not", "it's not", atau it isn't".

That's it for today's lesson.

Itu semua untuk pelajaran hari ini.
