You have a C1 Level in English If You Know These Words - Advanced English Vocabulary

Welcome back to JForrest English.

I'm Jennifer.

And today you're going to learn the most common C.

1 Vocabulary that you need to  sound fluent sound advance.

And pass your Il's easily and you're going  to complete quizzes as you go through.

This lesson to make sure you  really know this vocabulary.

Let's get started.

In this lesson, you're going to learn the most  common C1 verbs, adverbs, nouns and adjectives.

And you're going to complete  quizzes after each section.

All the vocabulary is at the C1 level.

The C1 level is an advanced  level of English proficiency.

Students at this level are expected to have a wide  

range of vocabulary and use  complex language structures.

Now let's start with the top  10C1 verbs to advocate advocate.

This means that you support, recommend  or speak in favor of something.

For sentence structure, you advocate for  something you need that preposition for,  

and then you have your something, a noun or a  gerund verb, because you have the preposition for.

As an example, environmentalists  advocate for stricter regulations  

to protect endangered species  if the environmentalists.

Advocate for these stricter regulations.

It means they want them, they recommend them, they  support them, and they speak in favor of them.

And notice that preposition for.

Environmentalists advocate  for stricter regulations.

To elaborate, Elaborate.

This is when you add more detail or information to  a statement or explanation for sentence structure,  

you elaborate on something, and that something  is your idea, your statement, your explanation.

So notice that preposition here.

We need on advocate for elaborate on.

For example, The professor asks Mark to elaborate  on his research findings during the presentation.

So Mark is presenting.

He's sharing information  about his research findings.

But the.

Professor said Can you elaborate on this?

So Mark needs to provide more information,  

more details, and by doing so he's  elaborating on his research findings.

To implement, implement.

This is when you put something  into a fact or action.

Or you apply or carry out a plan or decision.

For example, the company plans to implement  a new marketing strategy to increase sales.

So they're going to implement this marketing  strategy, They're going to put it into effect.

Once it's in effect, it means it is active,  

it is doing what you wanted it to do,  and notice here you implement something.

So we don't need an additional preposition  between our verb and our noun or clause.

Implement the marketing plan.

Implement the strategy,  implement the recommendations.

To emerge, emerge.

This is when something comes into  existence or becomes visible or apparent.

For example, as the sunset, the city's  skyline, emerged in all its splendor.

The city skyline emerged.

It became visible or apparent.

Apparent is another way of saying visible.

If something is apparent, it means you can see it.

A problem can also emerge which means that problem  is visible or apparent to constitute constitute.

This means to be part of a whole  or to form or make up something.

For example, these five sections constitute  the annual report, so these five sections.

Make up the annual report.

They form the annual report.

They're a part of the annual Report,  

so the sections are the individual parts  and the whole is the annual report,  

and these five sections constitute makeup or  form the annual Report to commence commence this.

Simply means to begin or start something.

Remember that all of these  verbs are advanced C1 verbs.

They are more advanced ways of saying  simple things like start, commence.

But also remember that to be considered  fluent and advanced in English,  

you need to know these alternative ways  and advanced grammatical structures.

So commence is the advanced way  of saying to start or begin.

For example, the conference will commence with a  keynote speech by A renowned experts in the field.

Of course you can simply say start,  

but to sound more advanced you can say  commence to encompass encompass this.

Means to include or contain.

Or to cover or surround entirely, For example,  the project scope encompasses a wide range of  

topics related to sustainable development if  it encompasses a wide range of topics related.

To sustainable development,  

it means that it includes or contains  these topics and the project scope.

The scope of a project is what  a project will include or cover.

So if it is within the scope,  the project will do it.

If an item is outside of the scope,  well then the project will not do it.

You might need to commence start a new project  

that encompasses that other item  that contains that other item.

To complement, complement, This means  to enhance or complete something by  

adding an additional item that harmonizes with it.

In plain English, it means that you add  something that goes well with it that matches it.

For example, the red shoes  complemented her black dress perfectly.

She has her black dress well.

What color harmonizes with black?

What color goes well with black?

Red, red and black complement each other.

So she chose red shoes to complement her  black dress, to convey, convey this means,  

to communicate or express a message or  information, for example the artist.

Used muted colors to convey a sense  of tranquility in the painting.

To convey a certain emotion.

The artist used these.

To communicate that emotion,  to express that emotion.

Muted colors.

Are very soft colors, tranquility?

That is a feeling of calm.

So when you look at this painting.

The feeling is conveyed.

The feeling is communicated or expressed.

To assemble, assemble.

This means to gather.

Or to put together parts to create a whole.

For example, tomorrow let's assemble in the  conference room to discuss the proposal.

In this sense, it means to gather.

So when individuals assemble, first  they're individuals, but then the.

Whole is the team, so you  have the individual members.

But then when they assemble, they combine to  form the team, and it can also mean to gather.

When people gather, they are individuals  and they come together as a whole.

Tomorrow, let's assemble in the  conference room to discuss the proposal.

So now you have the 10 most common C1 verbs in the  

English language to help you get  to that advanced level in English.

But how well do you really know these verbs?

Well, let's find out with a quiz.

Here are the questions.

Hit pause.

Take as much time as you need.

And when you're ready to  see the answers, hit play.

So how did you do with that quiz?

Let's find out.

Here are the answers.

Hit, pause.

Take as much time as you  need to review these answers.

And when you're done, hit play.

Amazing job with that section make.

Sure, you share your score in the comments below  

and also share your favorite advanced  verb from the list in the comments.

And leave an example sentence.

And now let's.

Move on to the top ten C1 adverbs.

Now, before we start, just remember  that adverbs can modify verbs.

Adjectives and other adverbs.

Adverbs are there to add more detail, more  clarity, or to emphasize the word used.

In the sentence, adverbs are easy to identify in  

a sentence because they're commonly  formed by adding ly to the adjective.

With that, let's review the  top ten C1 adverbs incessantly.

Incessantly this means without  interruption or continuously.

For.

The alarm kept ringing incessantly  until she finally woke up, of course.

I could say the alarm kept  ringing until she finally woke up.

Adverbs are not required in a sentence,  but when I say incessantly you have this.

Picture in your mind of this.

This action happening non-stop continuously,  

so all of a sudden it sounds a lot more  annoying or frustrating than without the adverb.

The alarm kept ringing incessantly  until she finally woke up.

Inevitably, Inevitably.

That's fun to say.

Inevitably this.

Means certain to happen.

So let's take an example with population growth.

I could say with the increasing population,  traffic jams are inevitably becoming more common  

again.

I could simply say traffic  jams are becoming more common.

But when I add inevitably.

It emphasizes.

That, and you know that this  is definitely going to happen.

This is.

Certain to happen and of.

Course a traffic jam is when you are unable  to move because there are cars all around you.

A traffic jam, something that we  inevitably deal with inordinately.

Inordinately, this means excessively or  

unusually, for example, he was  inordinately excited about his.

Art exhibition, of course, you expect.

Someone to be excited about their art,  expedition or any sort of event or presentation.

But if you say he was inordinately.

Excited all of a sudden.

I don't think this is a good thing because  it means there is too much excitement.

The amount of excitement is not appropriate  to the situation, so this is how.

Adverbs are so valuable because they can really  change the overall meaning of a sentence.

He was inordinately excited about his  upcoming art exhibition, and maybe you were.

Inordinately upset about making a mistake.

In English it's normal to make mistakes,  but the amount of upset that you became was.

Too much, given the situation.

Magnanimously.

Magnanimously.

That's a long word.

Magnanimously.

This means in a generous.

And forgiving way.

For.

Example, my old boss was magnanimously friendly  after he found out I started my own company.

So I was working for this  company, but then I quit.

I left.

And I started my own company that's going to  compete directly with the existing company.

So you would expect that?

My boss, My previous boss.

My old boss.

Would be upset, but he was friendly,  

so I can say magnanimously friendly to show  that he was friendly in a forgiving way.

He wanted to show that he wasn't  upset because I left and started.

My own company, ostensibly.

Ostensibly, this means  appearing as one thing when it.

Is really something else?

For example.

He was obstensively happy, so I  know that he's appearing happy,  

but there's really something else  so in reality he isn't happy.

I know that because I said.

Obstensively happy, he was  obstensively happy about the news,  

but deep down he was really worried.

So he appeared happy, but in  reality he's worried deep.

Down that represents the feelings  on the inside that we generally.

Don't show to the public perpetually, perpetually.

This means constantly or continuously  over a long period of time.

For example.

She's perpetually late.

This is not a good thing.

Because if you said she's late,  well, that simply means she's late.

Right now in this specific situation,  

but if I add the adverb perpetually,  I know it means constantly, which is.

All the time.

It's a reoccurring action, or  continuously over a long period of time.

She's perpetually late.

Not a good thing.

Precariously.

Precariously this means  dangerously or in an unstable.

Way for example.

The hiker walked precariously  along the edge of the Cliff.

So there's an edge of a Cliff.

That's already a dangerous situation.

But if he's walking precariously, it means he's  walking in an unstable way, so he's walking like.

This or a dangerous way.

He's extremely close to the edge  of the Cliff, superfluously.

This is also fun to say superfluously.

This means in an unnecessary  or excessive manner, So.

Too much?

Too much beyond what is.

For example.

The report was superfluously  long, so reports can be long,  

but if you say it was superfluously  long, it means unnecessarily long.

They made one section of the report 10.

Pages when it could have easily been one page.

So hopefully you don't think that  this video is superfluously long.

Excessively long too.

Long than needed, wanted, or desired.

Unanimously, unanimously, this means  with complete agreement of all.

Parties involved, so everyone  agrees with the same thing, they.

All agree, yes, or they all.

No, or they all agree.

Some other decision.

For example, the board members  unanimously approved the annual report.

This means that every board  member said yes, I approve.

They unanimously approved vehemently.

Vehemently.

This means in a strong and.

Emotional way.

For example, she vehemently opposed the idea of.

Relocating to a new city when you relocate,  

it means you permanently move from where  you live now to a different location.

So she opposed this idea.

She didn't want to relocate, but if I.

Say she vehemently opposed, you  know, it was with strong emotion.

She feels very strongly that she  doesn't want to move to relocate.

She vehemently opposed.

Relocating to a new city,  so now you have 10 advanced.

Adverbs in your vocabulary to help  you sound fluent and advanced.

At that C1 level.

So let's find out how well you  know these adverbs with a quiz.

Here are the questions.

Hit, pause.

Take.

As much time as you need.

And when you're ready to  see the answers, hit play.

So how'd you do with that quiz?

Well, let's find out.

Here are the answers.

Hit pause.

Review them.

And when you're ready to move on, hit play.

You're doing great.

Make sure you share your score and  again share your favorite adverb.

Leave an example sentence and let's move on.

To the top 10 most common C.

One nouns disparity, disparity.

This is a noticeable difference  or inequality between things,  

often in terms of quantity,  quality or status, for example.

There is a significant disparity in income  levels between the rich and poor in this city.

Remember grammatically that we're talking  about nouns, so pay attention to if the  

noun requires an article, or if not, because  it's either an exception or it's uncountable.

In this case, we have a disparity.

We need an article.

There is a modifier, a significant disparity.

The article is conjugated  with the modifier, so if.

You need a or and it depends on what  directly comes after the article.

A significant disparity.

Resilience.

Resilience.

This is a concept and it's when you can recover  

quickly from challenges or  difficulties, for example.

The community's resilience  was evident in how quickly  

they rebuilt after the devastating earthquake.

So there was this.

Devastating earthquake that  destroyed the homes but the city's.

Their ability to recover quickly from  challenges or difficulties allow them  

to rebuild the home and notice  that the resilience it belongs to.

The city, This city's resilience, Dilemma.

Dilemma.

That's fun to say.

Dilemma.

This is a difficult situation or  problem where a choice must be  

made between two options, but  they're equally undesirable.

So both of the options aren't very good,  but you have to make a decision that's.

A dilemma.

And notice that article a dilemma.

For example, she faced A dilemma  between taking a high paying job  

she didn't enjoy or pursuing her passion  for art, but with an uncertain income.

So she can take the high paying  job, but she doesn't like it.

Or she can pursue art, but there's no money.

So that's a dilemma because both of those options.

Have undesirable qualities.

Endeavor.

Endeavor.

This is a serious or determined  effort to achieve something,  

especially something challenging or worthwhile.

For example, the team made every endeavor  to complete the project ahead of schedule.

Notice here, because it's a  noun, we sometimes require  

other grammatical structures to make it complete.

And here.

You make an endeavor.

Otherwise, we could actually  use endeavor as a verb.

The team endeavored to complete the project.

But this lesson is teaching you nouns.

And in this case, endeavor is also a noun.

But you make an endeavor.

In this example, it's made every endeavor.

So we have our verb make in the past.

Simple.

And because every implies there was more  than one, we don't have an article made.

Every endeavor but endeavor is a.

Down that doesn't take a plural form, so the  noun is plural, but we don't add an S to it.

Inclination.

Inclination.

This is a natural tendency or  preference towards something.

His inclination towards music led him to  pursue a career as a professional musician.

So he has a natural tendency towards music.

Or simply he has a preference.

And because of that preference, he's  pursuing a career as a musician.

His inclination and noted.

Is the inclination belongs to him,  his inclination towards music.

Catalyst catalyst.

A catalyst is something that speeds up  

a significant change or that  causes a significant change.

For example, the new technology served  

as a catalyst for the company's rapid  expansion into international markets.

So in this case, the catalyst  is the new technology  

and the new technology allowed the company to  speed up a significant change, which in this  

case is expanding into international markets  or it simply caused that significant change.

So either they were in the process  of doing this, or they started it.

As a new project, but the new  technology was the catalyst it.

Sped it up or it caused it?

This position.

Disposition.

This is a person's inherent  qualities of mind and character.

Or you can think of it as  one's temperament or nature.

For example, her cheerful disposition made her  a joy to be around even in difficult situations.

So here her disposition.

Disposition is the noun, and it simply  represents her character, her personality.

And then we have an adjective,  her cheerful disposition,  

and in that case it sounds  like a positive disposition.

But somebody could have a negative disposition.

His angry disposition made him a negative person  

to be around to completely change the  example to the opposite connotation.

Connotation.

This is the emotional or cultural associations  that a word has beyond is literal meaning.

So let's take the word home literally.

A home is where you live.

That's the literal meaning.

Well, what other connotations are there with the?

Word home, we could say the word home has  positive connotations of warmth and security.

So that's the emotional characteristics.

That the word has beyond is literal meaning.

That's the connotation controversy controversy.

I'm sure you know this one.

This is a prolonged public dispute or debate,  

often involving opposing  views or conflicting opinions.

For example, the new government policy  sparked A controversy among citizens  

and politicians alike sparked a controversy.

Here, the word spark simply means created.

The controversy only exists  because of this new policy.

And remember, the controversy is that there are.

Opposing views, conflicting ideas.

So there's going to be some sort of debate.

And is going to be a prolonged debate, a  longer than usual debate, because it's a.

Inference.

Inference.

This is a conclusion reached based on evidence  and reasoning rather than direct observation.

So I could look at something  and reach a conclusion.

That's direct observation.

But maybe I don't have the advantage of looking  

at something, so I have to use evidence  and reasoning to reach that conclusion.

That's inference.

This is something that detectives do.

Because detectives don't always get to simply  look at something to directly observe it.

For example, from the clues provided, so the.

That's the reasoning and the  evidence from the clues provided.

The detective made a crucial  inference about the suspects location.

So the detective reached a conclusion about  the suspects location not based on observation,  

because if you could observe where a suspect is,  

well then you would know  exactly where that person is.

But the detective didn't know.

He had to use inference, the  clues, to determine that.

So now you know the top ten C1 nouns, but  how well do you truly know these nouns?

Let's find out with a quiz.

So here are the questions.

Hit pause.

Take as much time as you need, and when  you're ready to see the answers, hit play.

So how do you do with that quiz?

Well, let's find out.

Here are the answers.

Hit, pause.

Take as much time as you  need to review the answers,  

and when you're ready to continue, hit play.

You're doing such a great job.

Share your score, leave your favorite noun with an  example sentence, and finally, let's move on to.

The top ten C1 adjectives.

An adjective modifies a noun or a pronoun.

It provides additional information  about the noun or the pronoun,  

such as the size, color,  shape, quantity, or quality.

Ultimately, adjectives help make this  sentence more descriptive and interesting.

And they'll help you sound very  fluent and advanced in English.

So let's get started with the  10 most common C1 adjectives.

Ubiquitous, ubiquitous.

This means present, found,  or appearing everywhere.

For example, smartphones are ubiquitous devices.

They're found everywhere.

They're found in every home, every office.

So we can say smartphones are ubiquitous  devices in every home and office.

Paramount, Paramount when something is.

It means it's more important than anything else.

In emergency situations, the safety of the  passengers is paramount to the airline crew.

So you know the safety of the passengers  is important to the airline crew,  

but by including the adjective paramount, you  know it's more important than anything else.

So the safety of the the passengers is more  important than protecting the actual airplane.

The safety of the passengers is paramount.

Vast, vast.

This means a very great extent or quantity.

So when I hear vast, I know  that the extent is very great.

For example, the Sahara desert  is a vast expanse of sand dunes.

So of course I know there  are sand dunes in the desert.

I know there are many sand dunes.

But when I hear vast the image.

I have in my mind all of a sudden  changes and I see sand dune after  

sand dune after sand dune because  it's vast, profound, profound.

This means having deep insight or understanding,  

for example, the professor's  lecture on quantum mechanics.

Was profound.

By using this adjective, I understand  that the person saying this learned a  

lot of very deep insights or now has a very deep  

understanding of the topic because it  was profound, pervasive, pervasive.

This means spreading widely  throughout a group or an area.

Remember we talked about how  smartphones are ubiquitous?

They appear everywhere.

Well, as a result, we can say that social  media is a pervasive part of modern society  

because smartphones are ubiquitous and social  media like the J Force English YouTube channel  

is now everywhere as well, So it's pervasive.

It is spread widely and  spread quickly within society.

Inherent.

Inherent This means existing in something as  a permanent or inseparable quality or element.

It always lands on its feet.

For example, cats have an inherent ability  to land on their feet when they fall.

Have you heard that before that when a cat?

Well, this is an inherent quality.

It's permanent within the.

Cat It's not separable from the.

Cat The cat didn't learn how to do this.

It's just an inherent quality,  inquisitive, inquisitive.

This means showing a strong curiosity.

Or willingness to learn.

For example, my daughter was very  inquisitive when we were at the museum.

Generally, someone displays being  inquisitive by asking a lot of questions.

So if you're at the museum with a young child or  

even an adult and they ask a lot of  questions about what they're seeing.

They could also be inquisitive by wanting  to read all of the signs and the posters  

and the information about the objects  that they're looking at at the museum.

In my opinion, being inquisitive is a very  beneficial quality when you're learning,  

especially when you're learning a language.

I love when my students ask  questions when they're inquisitive.

Because it shows they're really  trying to understand and when  

you ask questions and you get those answers.

You're able to form those connections  in your brain and learn faster as well.

So hopefully you are inquisitive when  it comes to the English language.

Fickle.

Fickle.

That's fun to say.

Fickle.

This means changing frequently, especially  in one's loyalties, interests, or affections.

For example, the.

Fashion industry is known for its fickle trends.

Trends in the fashion industry  change very quickly, very frequently.

1 day it could be very fashionable  to wear a sweater like this,  

and then next week they say that is the.

Ugliest sweater ever and you shouldn't wear it.

So they're very fickle about what's trendy  and what's not trendy, the fashion industry.

Could also be fickle about which  designers they promote and support.

Maybe one day this person is the  designer that everyone's talking.

But then next week, nobody's  talking about that person.

And there's a totally new designer.

So the fashion industry and many other  industries is very fickle, Intrinsic, intrinsic.

This means belonging naturally.

And therefore it's an essential part.

For example, an intrinsic motivation to succeed  

drives some athletes to push their  limits so they're not motivated by.

Winning a trophy because  that's an external motivation.

The trophy is outside of them.

They're motivated by something  within an intrinsic motivation.

And just like I said that being inquisitive is  important when you're learning a language, so.

Is having an intrinsic motivation if you're only?

Motivated to study, to pass the IELTS?

Well, that's an external motivation,  

and although it's great to have that  motivation generally, it's not enough.

Generally we.

Also need an intrinsic motivation to really  push ourselves and succeed our full potential.

Eminent, eminent.

This means famous and respected within a  specific profession or field, for example.

She was awarded a prize for her  eminent contributions to the field,  

the field being the area of her profession.

So if she is a quantum mechanic,  then that is her field.

Quantum mechanics is her field.

If she is a physicist, then that is her field,  her area of study, interest or profession.

And here is that her eminent contributions.

So it's implying that her.

Contributions are.

Famous or respected within that particular field,  whether it be quantum mechanics or physics.

Now you have the top 10.

Adjectives added to your vocabulary,  But how well do you really?
