26
130569
2389
02:13
Oh
27
133590
1060
02:14

28
134650
1199
02:15
Listen to the vowel sound and repeat after me cold
29
135849
2930
02:18
I have a cold next word is similar, but difference could co uld
30
138780
6479
02:26
could could has the same vowel sound as words that are spelled much differently like put or
31
146140
6679
02:33
look
32
153580
1590
02:35
could
33
155170
1800
02:36
could
34
156970
1110
02:38
Now be sure that you are not only listening to me
35
158080
3229
02:41
But repeat after me when you hear me say a new word so so far. We have cold. I have a cold and
36
161310
7320
02:49
Could I could feel much better by tomorrow cold could calls?
37
169360

02:55
from the verb to call I
38

2330
02:58
Called my mother this morning called so not call-ed
39
178209
5750
03:04
but called
40
184030
1440
03:05
So be careful these words that I'm gonna show you a lot of them are verbs and none of them get an extra syllable for
41
185470
6679
03:12
the past 10 cold
42
192150
1690
03:13
could
43
193840
1229
03:15
called
44

excellent let's keep going a similar verb to
45

46
201250
1799
03:23
C-u-l-l
47
203049
2000
03:25
Cull means to select a small number from a greater number for example
48
205540
6380
03:31
I received hundreds of applications for a job opening
49
211920
4559
03:36

50
216480
7740
03:45
cull
51
225040
1289
03:46
go ahead and repeat to cull and let's say the past tense because it's more similar to
52
226329
5480
03:52
Hold so cold could called culled
53
232569
3650
03:57
Excellent next we have peel to keel over is a phrasal verb that comes from ship
54
237669
7850
04:06
Terminology boats keel from one side to the other but people can keel over. This is slang for
55
246250
6410
04:13
To die or to pass out the weather is so hot I hope no one keels over
56
253329
7190
04:20
From it excellent so repeat keel over
57
260680
2779
04:23
keeled
58
263979
1641
04:25
so keeled sounds quite similar to
59
265620
2670
04:29
Killed right to kill it is that short I found not
60
269169
5720

61
275500

66
299560
2329
05:02

302500
1200
05:03

68
303700
2000
05:06
Has cooled off
69
306220
2000
05:08
Quite a bit from earlier in the summer cool could be a verb or a noun cool can mean good excellent
70
308260
7339
05:15
So let's repeat the words one more time cold could
71
315600
4589
05:20
Called culled keeled killed and cooled
72
