5465
سڵاو من ناوم ئامایه، له‌م ڤیدیۆیه‌دا چۆنیه‌تی ده‌ربڕینی چه‌ند وشه‌یه‌كتان فێرده‌كه‌م
00:08
mistakes that you're probably making. So, if
you look beside me, I have a bunch of words.
1
8300
7390
كه ره‌نگه له ده‌ربڕینیدا هه‌ڵه‌بكه‌ن. ئه‌گه‌ر ته‌مه‌شای لای من بكه‌ن كۆمه‌ڵه وشه‌یه‌كم داناوه
00:15
These are some of the most commonly mispronounced
words in English by English... By students
2
15776
5513
ئه‌مانه بڕێكن له‌و وشه ئینگلیزیانه‌ی زۆر هه‌ڵه له ده‌ربڕینیاندا ده‌كرێت له لایه‌ن ئه‌و قوتابیانه‌ی
00:21
who are learning English. So
today, I'm going to teach you
3
21289
2892
كه خه‌ریكی فێربونی ئینگلیزین. كه‌وایه من ئه‌مڕۆ فێرتان ده‌كه‌م
00:24
how we actually
pronounce these words.
4
24207
3292
چۆن به ڕاستی ئه‌م وشانه ده‌رببڕین
00:27
So, the title of this video is "Silent Syllables".
All of these words have a silent syllable
5
27499
7571
ناونیشانی ڤیدیۆكه‌م (بڕگه بێده‌نگه‌كانه) هه‌موو ئه‌م وشانه بڕگه‌ی بێده‌نگیان تێدایه
00:35
in them. Now, you may be wondering: "What
is a syllable?" Well, a syllable is usually
6
35070
5680
ئێستا ره‌نگه بپرسیت بڕگه چیه؟ باشه بڕگه به‌شێوه‌یه‌كی گشتی
00:40
a vowel sound, sometimes it can also be a
consonant-vowel sound. So, if that's a little
7
40750
4850
بڕگه پیته بزوێنه‌كان، هه‌ندێك كاتیش ده‌كرێت پیته نه‌بزوێنه‌كان بن،
ئه‌مه هه‌نێك سه‌رلێشێوان دروستده‌كات، با سه‌یری هه‌نێك نمونه بكه‌ین
00:45
bit confusing, let's
look at some examples.
8
45600
2539
00:48
Here is the word "cat". It has one syllable.
If I clap my hand, "cat". Okay? Now, compare
9
48896
7894
لێره‌دا وشه‌ی "cat" پشیله هه‌یه. كه له یه‌ك بڕگه پێكدێت، ئه‌گه‌ر به چه‌پڵه بیگه‌ینم
00:56
this to the word "student", which has two
syllables. Compare this to the word "beautiful",
10
56839
8457
ئێستا به‌رواردی ده‌كه‌ین به وشه‌ی "student" قوتابی، كه دوو بڕگه‌یه، وه به‌راوردی به وشه‌ی "beautiful" جوان كه سێ بڕگه‌ی
01:05
which has three, and we have here the word
"incredible" which has four. Okay? So each
11
65398
6942
وه وشه‌ی "incredible" باوه‌ڕپێنه‌كراو كه چوار بڕگه‌یه
هه‌ریه‌كێك له‌م وشانه له بڕگه‌دا جیاوازن، وه ئێوه تێبینی بكه‌ن كه قه‌باره‌ی وشه‌كانیش جیاوازن
01:12
of these has a different number of syllables.
You'll also notice that the length of the
12
72374
4800
01:17
word is different. "Incredible" is longer
than "beautiful", "beautiful" is longer than
13
77200
7640
وشه‌ی "Incredible" درێژتره له وشه‌ی "beautiful" وشه‌ی "beautiful" درێژتره له "student"
01:24
"student", and "student" is
longer than "cat". Okay?
14
84840
5069
وه "student" درێژتره له "cat"
01:30
So, a silent syllable is a syllable that people
believe we're supposed to pronounce, but we
15
90179
6650
كه‌وایه بڕگه بێده‌نگه‌كان، ئه‌و بڕگانه‌ن كه خه‌ڵكی پێی وایه ده‌خوێنرێنه‌وه، به‌ڵام له‌ڕاستیدا ناخوێنرێنه‌وه.
01:36
don't actually pronounce it. Let's start with
this one, because this is the most common
16
96829
4830
با سه‌ره‌تا له‌مه‌وه ده‌ستپێبكه‌ین، چونكه زۆرترین هه‌ڵه‌ی تێداده‌كرێت له پۆله‌كه‌مدا
01:41
mistake I hear in my classrooms. Many students
pronounce this word as "com-for-ta-ble", they
17
101659
6611
زۆر قوتابی ئه‌موشه‌یه به‌م شێوه‌یه ده‌رده‌بڕن "com-for-ta-ble"
باوه‌ڕیان وایه كه چوار بڕگه‌یه، ئه‌مه ڕاستنیه. له تۆم ده‌وێت به وریاییه‌وه گوێبگریت كه من چۆن ئه‌م وشه‌یه ده‌ڵێم.
01:48
believe it has four syllables. This is not
true. I want you to listen carefully to how
18
108270
7369
01:55
I pronounce this word: "comfterble", "comfortable".
How many syllables did you hear? "Comfortable".
19
115639
10123
"comfterble" (ئاسوده)
گوێت له چه‌ند بڕگه بوو؟ "comfterble"
ئه‌گه‌ر گوێت له سێ بڕگه بووبێت، تۆ راستیت، كه‌وایه ئێمه ئه‌م وشه‌یه به‌م شێوه‌یه ده‌رنابڕین "com-for-ta-ble"
02:06
If you said three syllables, you are correct.
So we do not pronounce "com-for-ta-ble", mm-mm,
20
126059
6351
02:12
we say: "comfterble". Okay? So if I
wrote this how it's almost pronounced,
21
132410
6695
ئێمه ده‌ڵێین "comfterble" روونه ؟ ئه‌گه‌ر به‌وشێوه‌ی كه هه‌میشه ده‌ری ده‌بڕین چۆنیه‌تی ده‌ربڕینه‌كه‌ی بنوسین
02:21
it almost looks like: "comfterble".
Okay?
22
141542
4124
هه‌میشه به‌م شێوه‌یه‌یه
02:26
The next word that I hear a lot of students
making a mistake with... This is one of my
23
146025
4861
وشه‌ی دواتر كه گوێم لێده‌بێت زۆر قوتابی هه‌ڵه‌ی تێداده‌كه‌ن. ئه‌مه یه‌كێكه له‌و
02:30
favourite types of food, I hear a lot of students
say: "choc-o-late", where they pronounce this
24
150912
5478
جۆره خواردنانه‌ی كه زۆرم حه‌ز لێیه، ده‌بیستم زۆر جار قوتابی ده‌ڵێت
"choc-o-late" ئه‌م پیتی (O) ده‌ڵێن
02:36
"o". In English, we don't pronounce that. We
usually say... So we don't say "choc-o-late",
25
156390
6697
له ئینگلیزیدا ئه‌و پیته له‌و شوێنه‌دا ناوترێت. ئێمه زۆربه‌ی جارده‌ڵێین، ئێمه ناڵێین "choc-o-late"
02:43
which is three syllables; we actually say:
"choclate", "chocolate", "chocolate". How
26
163113
7337
كه سێ بڕگه بێت، ئێمه له ڕاستیدا ده‌ڵێین "choclate"
02:50
many syllables does that have?
If you said
27
170450
4345
چه‌ند بڕگه‌ی تێیدایه؟ ئه‌گه‌ر وتبێتت دوو ئه‌وا تۆ راستبویت
02:55
two, you are correct.
It's almost like this
28
175092
4681
02:59
"o" doesn't exist. So I want you to repeat after
me: "chocolate", "comfortable". Okay, good.
29
179799
9202
ئه‌م پیتی "o" بوونی نیه. كه‌وایه ده‌مه‌وێت له دوام بیڵێینه‌وه
"chocolate", "comfortable"
03:09
Now, the next sound, or... The next word many
students mispronounce is this one. First off,
30
189874
6166
ده‌نگی دواترمان یان وشه‌ی دواترمان كه زۆر قوتابی به هه‌ڵه ده‌ری ده‌بڕن، ئه‌مه‌یه
سه‌ره‌تا هه‌نێكجار هه‌ڵه له ده‌نگی "v" ده‌كه‌ن، وه‌ك "veg"
03:16
they often miss... Mispronounce the "v" sound,
which is "veg", "vegetable". Many students
31
196040
6825
03:22
say: "veg-e-ta-ble". Okay? So many students
think it has four... Four syllables, but in
32
202891
7409
"vegetable" (سه‌وزه) زۆرقوتابی ده‌لێن veg-e-ta-ble"
زۆرقوتابی پێیانوایه كه چوار بڕگه‌یه، به‌ڵام وانیه.
03:30
fact, it doesn't. Tell me: How many sounds
does this have: "vegetable", "vegetable"?
33
210300
7282
پێمبڵێن له چێند بڕگه پێك هاتوه؟
03:37
It has three. Okay?
34
217699
1710
له سێ بڕگه
03:39
So I'm actually going to start writing this.
"Comfortable" has two, "chocolate" has two.
35
219440
7090
من ئێستا ئه‌مانه ده‌نوسم، "Comfortable" دوو بڕگه‌یه،
"chocolate" دوو بڕگه
03:46
"Comfortable"... Sorry,
"comfortable" has three. Okay?
36
226903
4555
ببورن "Comfortable" سێ بڕه‌گه‌یه
03:52
"Vegetable" has three.
37
232238
3121
"Vegetable" سێ بڕگه‌یه
03:56
The next word is another word a lot of students
make a mistake with, similar to "chocolate",
38
236505
6330
وشه‌ی دواتر كه زۆر قوتابی هه‌ڵه‌ی تێداده‌كه‌ن، هاوشێوه‌ی وشه‌ی "chocolate" ه
04:02
we have here an "o". We don't pronounce this
"o". Okay? So many students say "brocc-o-li",
39
242861
8385
لێره‌دا پیتێكی "o"هه‌یه كه نایخوێنینه‌وه. زۆر قوتابی ده‌ڵێن "brocc-o-li"
04:11
but we don't say "broccoli", we say: "broccli".
Okay? So, in this case, it only has two syllables:
40
251272
8240
به‌ڵام ئێمه ناڵێین "brocc-o-li"، ئێمه‌ده‌ڵێین "broccli" كه‌وایه له‌م وشه‌دا ته‌نها دوو بڕگه‌یه
04:19
"brocc-li".
41
259538
2393
"brocc-li".
04:23
Okay? And we will go over these one
more time at the end of the video.
42
263537
4708
له كۆتایدا ڤیدیۆكه‌دا جارێكی به‌سه‌ر ئه‌مه‌دا دێینه‌وه
04:28
Okay, very common word here, how many
syllables do you think it has? If you said:
43
268628
8375
وشه‌یه‌كی زۆر باو لێره‌یه، پێتوایه له چه‌ند بڕگه پێكدێت؟
گه‌ر وتبێتت "in-trest-ing" له سێ بڕگه پێكدێت
04:37
"in-trest-ing",
44
277246
1786
04:39
you are correct, it has three syllables. Many students
say: "in-ter-est-ing". "That is very interesting."
45
279070
8367
زۆر قوتابی ده‌ڵێن "in-ter-est-ing" ئه‌مه زۆر سه‌رنج ڕاكێشه
04:47
We don't say it like that. We say:
"in-trest-ing". Okay? "In-trest-ing",
46
287625
7740
ئێمه ئه‌مه به‌م شێوه‌یه ناڵێین، ئێمه ده‌ڵێین "in-trest-ing"
04:55
so this one has three
syllables also.
47
295422
3154
كه‌وایه ئه‌مه‌ش سێ بڕه‌گه‌یه
04:59
Okay, another very common word... Okay, I've
used the Canadian/British spelling. If you're
48
299912
6368
وشه‌یه‌كی تری زۆر باو من به‌شێوه‌ی نوسینی كه‌نه‌دی و به‌ریتانی نوسیومه
05:06
an American or an... A speaker of American
English, there will be no "u" here. How many
49
306280
6880
ئه‌گه‌ر تۆ ئه‌مریكیت، یان به شێوه‌ی ئه‌مریكی قسه ده‌كه‌یت ئه‌وا له نوسیندا ئه‌م "u" لێره‌دا نیه
چه‌ند بڕگه له‌م وشه‌یه‌دا هه‌یه؟
05:13
syllables do you
think this word has?
50
313160
2474
یاڵا با پێكه‌وه بیڵێین "Favourite"
05:17
Okay? Let's say it together:
"Favourite", "favourite".
51
317619
5086
05:22
How many did you hear?
If you said: "fav-rite",
52
322760
4932
گوێت له چه‌ند بوو؟ ئه‌گه‌ر ده‌ڵێی "fav-rite"
05:28
and you heard two
syllables, you are correct.
53
328012
2958
وه گوێت له دوو بڕگه بووبێت، ته‌واوه
05:32
We do not say: "fav-our-ite",
mm-mm, we say: "fav-rite". Okay?
54
332637
6724
ئێمه ناڵێین "fav-our-ite" ئێمه ده‌ڵێین "fav-rite"
05:40
Okay, here's another one a lot of students
make mistakes with, many students will say:
55
340111
5560
لێره‌ش دانه‌یه‌كی تر كه زۆر قوتابی هه‌ڵه‌ی تێدا ده‌كه‌ن، زۆر قوتابی ده‌ڵێن
زۆر قوتابی ده‌ڵێن "temp-er-a-ture" ، به‌ڵام ئێمه به‌م شێوه‌یه نایڵێین، ده‌مه‌وێت به وریایی گوێبگریت هه‌ڵبژێریت
05:45
"temp-er-a-ture", but we don't say it this way.
I want you to listen carefully, and choose:
56
345697
6273
05:51
How many syllables are
there in this word?
57
351970
2815
كه ئه‌م وشه‌یه له چه‌ند بڕگه پێكدێت
05:54
"Tem-pra-ture", "temperature".
"Tem-pra-ture".
58
354879
6867
"Tem-pra-ture", "temperature". "Tem-pra-ture".
06:02
Okay, so there are three
syllables in this one.
59
362590
3174
باشه كه‌وایه سێ بڕه‌گه له‌مه‌دا هه‌یه
06:08
Okay? We have this word... Again, these are
all very common words. A lot of students will
60
368652
5572
ئه‌م وشه‌یه‌مان هه‌یه، دوباره ئه‌مه‌ش یه‌كێكه له وشه باوه‌كان
زۆر قوتابی ده‌ڵێین "ev-er-y-one" پێیانوایه له چواربڕگه پێكدێت، ئێستا له ئێوه‌م ده‌وێت گوێ له من بگرن
06:14
say: "ev-er-y-one". They think it has four
syllables. Now, I want you to listen to me
61
374250
6650
06:20
and tell me: How many
syllables do you hear?
62
380900
2835
وه پێم بڵێن له گوێتاندا هه‌ست به‌چه‌ند بڕگه ده‌كه‌ن
06:23
"Ev-ry-one", "everyone",
"ev-ry-one".
63
383837
6241
"Ev-ry-one", "everyone", "ev-ry-one".
06:30
If you said three, you are correct.
Okay?
64
390672
4392
ئه‌گه‌ر وتبێتت سێ ، ئه‌وه تۆ راستبویت
له كۆتایدا دووی تر ماوه
06:35
And finally, we have two more. A lot of students
will say this as: "nat-ur-all-y", but we don't
65
395090
7380
زۆرقوتابی ده‌ڵێن "nat-ur-all-y"
به‌ڵام ئێمه به‌و ڕێگایه ده‌ری نابڕین، به وردی گوێ بگره من چۆن ده‌یڵێم
06:42
pronounce it that way. Listen
carefully to how I say it.
66
402470
3415
06:45
"Nat-ral-ly",
"naturally", "naturally",
67
405911
5623
"Nat-ral-ly", "naturally", "naturally",
06:52
"nat-ral-ly". It has
three syllables.
68
412081
4260
"nat-ral-ly" له سێ بڕگه پێكدێت
06:58
And the last one, similar to "chocolate",
many students say: "soph-o-more", but it's
69
418380
6710
دواهه‌مینیان، هاوشێوه‌ی "chocolate" زۆر قوتابی ده‌ڵێن "soph-o-more" به‌ڵام ئه‌مه وانیه
07:05
not. "Soph-more", "sophomore".
70
425064
4473
"Soph-more", "sophomore".
07:09
So it's almost like this "o",
we don't pronounce. It's a
71
429819
3134
ئه‌مه‌ش به‌هه‌مانشێوه‌ی ئه‌م "o" ئێمه نایخوێنینه‌وه
07:12
silent sound. "Sophomore".
It has two syllables.
72
432979
6378
پیتێكی بێده‌نگه "Sophomore" دوو بڕگه‌یه
07:21
Okay, so let's do this very slowly. I want
you to repeat each of these words after me.
73
441922
5616
كه‌وایه با زۆر به له‌سه‌رخۆیی ئه‌مه ئه‌نجام بده‌ین. ئه‌مه‌وێت هه‌ر یه‌ك له‌م وشانه له دوام بڵێنه‌وه
07:28
And you can say it slow, and then start making
it a little bit faster. Okay? So let's start
74
448499
4640
ده‌توانن به له‌سه‌ر خۆیی ده‌ستپێبكه‌ن دواتر به‌ره‌به‌ره خێرا تر، باشه؟ با ده‌ستپێبكه‌ین
كه‌وایه با له‌سه‌ر ئێره‌وه ده‌ستپێبكه‌ین و دوار ده‌په‌ڕینه‌وه بۆ ئه‌مانی تر
07:33
over here, and we will work our way across.
"Naturally". Repeat after me: "naturally",
75
453139
9187
"nat-ral-ly" (سروشتی)
له دوام بیڵێنه‌وه
"nat-ral-ly" (سروشتی)
07:42
"nat-ral-ly".
76
462352
2761
07:46
"Sophomore", "sophomore",
"sophomore".
77
466417
6415
sophomore (قوتابیه‌ك كه له مه‌رحه‌له دوو بێت)
07:53
Okay, good. Okay? Okay,
this one, I really
78
473032
3258
ئه‌مه‌یان زۆر مه‌به‌ستمه دووباره‌ی بكه‌نه‌وه
"comfortable", "comfterble", "comfortable",
07:56
want you to practice: "comfortable",
"comfterble", "comfortable",
79
476290
10048
08:06
"That chair is
comfortable." Okay?
80
486564
3648
ئه‌و كورسیه ئیسراحه‌ته
08:10
Okay? Now, again, my favourite food - very
important you pronounce this correctly:
81
490986
4678
ئێستا، دووباره، ئه‌و خواردنه‌ی حه‌زم لێبوو. زۆر گرنگه ده‌ربڕینی ئه‌م وشه‌یه به دروستی
08:15
"chocolate", "choclate",
"chocolate". Okay.
82
495883
7138
"chocolate", "choclate", "chocolate"
08:23
Okay, here we have another word:
83
503880
1852
لێره وشه‌یه‌كی ترمان هه‌یه
08:25
"vegtable", "vegtable",
"vegetable".
84
505935
7366
"vegtable" (سه‌وزه‌وات)
08:33
Okay? So, again, three.
85
513327
2273
ئه‌مه‌ش سێ بڕگه‌یه
08:36
"Broccoli". So, again,
repeat after me:
86
516529
3850
"Broccoli" دوو باره له دوام بیڵێنه‌وه
08:40
"broccli", "broccoli". Okay.
87
520405
5216
"broccli", "broccoli"
08:46
Okay. Repeat after me, please:
"intresting", "in-trest-ing",
88
526012
8111
تكایه له دوام بیڵێنه‌وه "intresting", "in-trest-ing",

08:57
"Favourite", "favrite",
"favourite".
90
537958
7137
09:05
This one: "temprature",
"temprature", "temprature".
91
545908
9719
ئه‌مه‌یان temprature (پله‌ی گه‌رمی)
09:16
And finally: "evryone",
"everyone", "everyone". Okay.
92
556315
8911
له كۆتایدا
"evryone" (هه‌ر كه‌سێك)
09:25
And there you have it, 10 words we often make
pronunciation mistakes with when we are learning
93
565252
5116
