(cat meow... ♪♪♪)
So that's what happens in the morning.
Claire pets herself on my purse and all of the cats whine
because we don't feed them yet.... happy Wednesday!
Hello, right now we are talking about my belly button.
Yeah, right here.
Sorry
Ugh. So Jenna says that it's going to pop out to an outie
and I say it won't.
But right now it looks like this.
So like, it still has a dip in it but like...
but here on the top, there's a dip,
but here on the top there's like skin that folds over
so I don't know.
I don't know. What do you think?
You think it's gonna fully pop?
Up close and personal with the camera.
So pretty much tonight it's Wednesday and
we've just been cleaning and preparing for the baby shower which is on Sunday.
Friday we'll be working all day.
We have a birthday dinner Friday cause it's my birthday
and I'm 31 years old!
And...
excuse you!
Saturday all day, from 9 - 4 I think, we have our child birthing class.
Then we'll be coming home and cleaning up and getting everything ready
because Sunday it the baby shower
but I don't want to be last minute freaking out.
So I figured it'd probably be best to do that Saturday.
So...
that was today pretty much.
She is still sick.
[JE] Yup got a cold.
Just dealing with it.
[JI] So I just got a package.
I was gonna wait until Jenna got home later,
but I already know what's inside.
We had a few people... because we have one more baby shower
and some people weren't able to come.
I think they sent something in the mail.
It actually has the company name, which I know what that means.
So I'm going to open it and see which one it is!
♪♪♪
So cute!
It's one of the swaddle blankets that we wanted.
We actually have a few, but we have a good amount.
Ugh!
But anyways, really cute.
I'm trying to figure out who this is from.
Anyways I'm going to open the card and see who it's from and thank them.
So cool!
Right now, I've been baking.
I'm making breakfast cookies for work tomorrow.
Hopefully they're good.
Umm... didn't really want to taste them because I don't have too many,
but I'm afraid they're gonna be dry.
I don't know and I have to make more later.
But it's already 7p and I haven't had dinner.
So I think I want to eat
then I'll eat just one of these just to make sure they're okay.
If they're not, then I don't know.
I'm really concerned!
So I got everything ready.
I think that I saved the cookies... hopefully.
I have bananas and then I'll chop up a pineapple tomorrow. Get that ready.
But right now I'm getting ready for bed.
Made some last minute tea for Jenna who's watching the game.
And... yeah, that's about it.
Tomorrow's my birthday! Woo!
Yay!
31 years old... see you tomorrow.
(clicks) Bye!
[JE] So we are here. Birthday dinner for Jill.
We're at a restaurant called Nox.
So first time here. Seems pretty cool.
It's kind of got a homey but gothic type of mixed vibe.
It's a pretty unique environment. I like it.
[JI] Yeah it's really nice and she just took me shopping too.
[JE] Yep, have to treat my woman.
[JI] Yeah she took me shopping for some work clothes... Motherhood Maternity.
It was expensive but worth it and she was very patient. Waited a long time.
The women at the store were kind of pushy
and it kind of got me mad, but I'm over it.
♪♪♪
[JE] You don't want to film yourself?
OK
We're watching a movie for Jill's birthday.
We picked this one.
Yup, good one.
[JI] Happy Saturday!
We woke up early and we're going to our childbirthing class right now, woo!
Ready to learn how to birth this baby!
Well... not right now.
But... eventually.
Hopefully "next year".
We'll explain more later,
but we're going to go into class.
I don't think we can film in class cause that would be weird.
But we'll see you maybe at lunch or something.
[JE] Everything's going good.
Just eating some lunch now before we have to head back to class.
[JI] Yeah, so far been doing fine.
Class seems to be nice. The woman's really nice.
We'll talk more later.
Class is done!
Yeah now we now how to birth a baby!
Now this.
[JE] One more birthday gift.
[JI] Yeah kind of, I really need boots.
Might have found some boots. We'll see.
I need ankle boots for work because
one: I just need boots and
two: I'm big and fat and don't fit into many of my boots.
And I don't want to spend too much money.
So we'll see. These might work. We'll see.
My feet are swollen a tiny bit.
♪♪♪
Yeah not bad.
The ankle part will hit me, but if I have socks on, this should be fine.
Yeah, i'm not sure if they're big or not.
I don't know.
I'm not sure if I have thick socks.
Not bad.
Yeah, I might get these... maybe.
Good morning. Right now I'm heading into Target.
It is Sunday, so meaning baby shower today!
I have to say baby, baby, baby, before the shower
because we're playing a game were you can't say baby.
So anyways, I gotta get it out of my system.
I'm gonna go in. Get some drinks.
Maybe a few plates, stuff like that.
Maybe some gifts. We will see.
Hopefully I can find everything I need and then head back home
because pretty much a lot of the stuff is already done.
We have friends that are gonna come over and bring a bunch of stuff.
It's really helpful. So awesome!
Let's see what Target has.
♪♪♪
Right now, I hit the jackpot.
I got the last few plates and some napkins.
Found some table covers on sale
and also some lanterns. So yay!
Now I need to find other stuff.
OMG I'm so excited because
I didn't have favors for everyone
and oh my gosh.
I was just looking around in the candy

and I was like where are those from?
I found them!
Yay! Favors will be made. Woo!
Now I just have to go home and print papers and cut those out. No big deal.

10 English words that are hard to say correctly - Duration: 11:26.
Hi.
Welcome to engVid.
I'm Adam.
Today's lesson is a pronunciation lesson.
I'm going to talk to you about 10 words that many people find very difficult to pronounce,
especially non-native English speakers, but even sometimes native speakers have some trouble
with some of these.
We're going to look at the first five and I'm going to show you two things, two ways
to look at this word.
One...
Or these words.
One is the phonetic, basically just: How does it sound?
And two is looking at the actual phonetic alphabet to see how it's spelled according
to the phonetic alphabet, and I'll talk to you about that as well.
So we're going to look at: "months", "clothes", "little", "queue", "chaos".
So you already heard me saying them, but I'll go through each one carefully.
A lot of people try to pronounce the "th" in this word: "months", "months", you're just
confusing your tongue, you're confusing your listener.
Don't try to always put "ths", they don't always work.
Even native speakers don't bother trying to separate the sounds.
What...
The way it sounds like to us, like the way I say it is: "muntz".
The "ths" I just switch to a "tz".
So if you think about the word "plants", you know...
Everybody knows how to say "plant", one plant, many plants, this is the same sound as here:
"tz".
So this is the same sound here: "mun", like "sun", "run", "munt", "muntz".
Okay?
Again, don't try to separate them.
This is what it looks like in the phonetic.
Now, if you want to really improve your pronunciation and sound like a native speaker, you must
learn the International Phonetic Alphabet.
I took this phonetic spelling from the Merriam-Webster's Dictionary, that's the American dictionary
if you want to get the North American accent.
Look at the Oxford Dictionary, for example, if you want to get the British phonetic spelling
of things, if you want to get the different accents, etc.
Get to know these symbols.
This is like an "ah" or sometimes even an "uh", as we're going to see in other words.
Make sure you understand the different symbols and what sounds they represent, that way any
word that you want to pronounce correctly, you can do according to this.
Now, you can also go online: m-w . com or just www . Merriam-Webster . com, you can
hear all of these words and you can practice saying them and saying them correctly.
Now, this word, and it's the same idea.
You still have your "t", "h", and "s", but you have the "e", the extra vowel in the middle.
A lot of people try to say: "clothes", but if you say "clothes" to a native speaker...
Okay, usually the context will help them understand what you're saying, but if you say the word
out of context they actually won't know what you're saying because we don't have a word
"clothes".
Okay?
It sounds like "cloze".
Close the door, wear clothes, sounds exactly the same.
And again, the phonetic with be "o" there, "k", and the "z".
We don't have the "th" because we don't pronounce it.
So most words that have a "th" and an "s" very close together, we generally just basically
squeeze them in into a "ts" sound or a "z" sound.
Okay?
"Clothes".
So when...
After you take the clothes out of the closet, close the door.
Okay?
Clothes.
"Little".
Now, some people try to say "little", which is okay.
Everybody will understand you if you say "little", but most people in, again, native...
Native speakers in everyday sound, everyday speech, everyday pace will say: "lidol".
I have a little bit.
Little bit.
So it sounds like a "d", the "tt" sounds like a "d".
This "i" is almost not pronounced.
It's more like the "d" drops into the "l".
This is what it looks like here, that's where the "t" drops.
They put it as a "t", but when you have two t's together and in normal speed, it sounds
like a "d", so: "lidle".
Some people say: "I have a little bit", some people will say: "I have a lidle bit."
Little.
Okay?
Now, this word, this word is very frightening because everybody who doesn't actually know
this word will actually try to pronounce it.
But you have to remember English is a crazy language.
We have many words that don't sound anything like they look.
Okay?
So this is not "queue", nobody says "queue", because nobody will understand what you're
saying.
This word basically means "q" or is pronounced-sorry-"q".
It means a line up.
When you go to the bank and you go to the teller, but there's a lot of people, get in
queue and wait until your turn.
Get in line.
Queue, very simple, just like the letter "q", and there is the alphabet.
Now, this one I've heard all kinds.
I've heard: "cows", I've heard "ka-os", but the actual correct way is "k", we pronounce
the "a" as a diphthong, as like a two-vowel sound, "ke yos" or "key os".
Okay?
Depends.
Some people say it differently.
Some people say: "ke yos", some people say "key os".
They'll put the accent...
Technically it should be this one because the stress is on the first part: "key os".
So look...
Notice that these are both a's, but these symbols on top tell you that they're diphthongs,
or they're longer, or they're shorter, what kind of sound they should be.
If you start to study the IPA, it's like learning a new alphabet so it does...
It will take some work from you.
Okay?
You do have to put in some effort, but once you learn it you can learn the pronunciation
of basically every word, and you can learn the different accents if you want British,
Australian, Canadian, American, etc. learn the phonetic alphabet.
Let's look at five more words.
Okay, so we're going to look at five more words that...
The first ones we looked at, everyday words, you're going to use them a lot.
These ones not as common, but still regular everyday words.
Okay?
So first we're going to look at: "niche".
Now, it looks like "Nietzsche", which...
Who was a very famous philosopher, but that's not who we're talking about here.
We're look...
Talking about niche.
When you're talking about a market and there's a very particular target audience or very
particular customer for a very specialized thing, so it's small, we call that a niche.
Okay?
It's like a very particular small thing.
This is how it's pronounced: "neesh", this is what it looks like in the IPA.
Okay?
So, again, study the IPA, very recommended.
Not easy, but it's worth it for you, especially if you want to improve your pronunciation.
Now, everybody looks at this word and they recognize the word "famous", so then they
think it's: "Oh, infamous, means not famous", but that's actually not the meaning of the
word and that's not the correct pronunciation either.
This word is "infamous", "in fa mus", and it means the...
It's famous, but for something bad.
Okay?
So somebody is famous for something bad, that person is infamous.
"In fa mus", "in fa mus".
Now, this looks like a "uh" so infamous, it depends who you're asking how it's pronounced.
I pronounce it "infa", "infamus", okay.
And the accent, "infamous", on the first syllable.
So remember it's very important also to understand syllables which are actually the vowel sounds
in a word.
So if you're not sure about a word, first cut it into all of its syllables and then
try to pronounce each one separately.
And if you're not sure how to pronounce them, you go look it up in the dictionary, you can
hear it.
Some...
A lot of them, like the Merriam-Webster will also give you this type of break down.
They'll split it into syllables and they'll give you the IPA spelling as well.
Now, "lawyer", the person who practices law.
So this word: "law" is "ah", but in...
When we're talking about the person it's: "oh", "loh", "loh yer", "loh yer".
This "yer" is the same as "sir" or "were".
So, one of the good things you can also do is try to find the pronunciations of words
that you do know how to say properly, like "sir" or "were", and then apply that to other
words that you're not sure about.
So you know this spelling: "your", "sir", "were", "lawyer".
Very straightforward.
Not "lawyer", okay?
Lawyer.
"Squirrel".
A squirrel is a cute, little animal...
For some people it's cute.
I think they're cute.
Some people think they're mice with big tails, but in Canada we have lots of them.
Okay?
And a lot of people come to Canada and they take pictures of these little animals, and
they want to send them home to wherever they came from, and then they want to tell their
family or friends about this animal and then they go: "Squirrel", "squirrah", okay?
Because the "rl" is a very difficult combination of letters to pronounce, even for native speakers.
For example, this is one of the most difficult words in English to pronounce: "rural".
Okay?
Rural means, like, countryside.
Urban - city; rural - countryside.
See?
Even I have trouble with this word.
"rl" is difficult.
From...
For some nationalities it's very difficult because you don't distinguish between these
two to begin with.
So what are you going to do?
You're going to take it and try to connect it to another word that you do know.
Most people can say: "girl".
All you're doing is you're taking out the "g", you're putting in the "skw", and you
have the same word: "girl", "squirrel", a girl squirrel, a squirrel girl.
Same idea, same pronunciation, and then you play with other words you do know to get to
the words you don't know.
And again, here the reason there's a little accent on top of the "r" is because it kind
of drops into the...
Into the "l" which is actually what makes it difficult to pronounce: "rl", little ending
there.
Now, everybody...
I've heard all kinds of ways to say this word: "comfortable".
I'm not going to go through them, but listen to how I say it in regular speech.
"Cumf t'bl".
I don't pronounce the "r", I barely pronounce "table".
I don't say "table", I say "t'bl".
I squeeze all...
I squeeze it all together, I take out the vowels.
"Cumf t'bl", that's one way.
Some people do pronounce the "r": "cum for tabl".
The "tabl" is still not "table", it's "tabl", any way you say it.
Some people do say the "r", some people don't.
Some people make the "f" sound like a "p": "cumptabl".
It works for some, it doesn't work for anybody...
For everybody.
Whatever way you say it, it is not "comfortable".
That's not the correct way.
"Comftbl".
Okay?
So get used to this kind of words.
Get used to the IPA, very, very important, very useful if you want to sound like a native
speaker.
Okay?
So, a little bit difficult to make quizzes on this, but I did make a quiz with IPA, help
you study your IPA words.
Go to www.engvid.com, take the quiz, and practice your use of the IPA for pronunciation.
Like my video if you liked it, and don't forget to subscribe to my channel.
If you have any questions, again, www.engvid.com, you can ask me in the forum there.
And I'll see you again real soon. Bye-bye.

This word is "infamous", "in fa mus", and it means the...
It's famous, but for something bad.
Okay?
So somebody is famous for something bad, that person is infamous.
"In fa mus", "in fa mus".
Now, this looks like a "uh" so infamous, it depends who you're asking how it's pronounced.
I pronounce it "infa", "infamus", okay.
And the accent, "infamous", on the first syllable.
So remember it's very important also to understand syllables which are actually the vowel sounds
in a word.
So if you're not sure about a word, first cut it into all of its syllables and then
try to pronounce each one separately.
And if you're not sure how to pronounce them, you go look it up in the dictionary, you can
hear it.
Some...
A lot of them, like the Merriam-Webster will also give you this type of break down.
They'll split it into syllables and they'll give you the IPA spelling as well.
Now, "lawyer", the person who practices law.
So this word: "law" is "ah", but in...
When we're talking about the person it's: "oh", "loh", "loh yer", "loh yer".
This "yer" is the same as "sir" or "were".
So, one of the good things you can also do is try to find the pronunciations of words
that you do know how to say properly, like "sir" or "were", and then apply that to other
words that you're not sure about.
So you know this spelling: "your", "sir", "were", "lawyer".
Very straightforward.
Not "lawyer", okay?
Lawyer.
"Squirrel".
A squirrel is a cute, little animal...
For some people it's cute.
I think they're cute.
Some people think they're mice with big tails, but in Canada we have lots of them.
Okay?
And a lot of people come to Canada and they take pictures of these little animals, and
they want to send them home to wherever they came from, and then they want to tell their
family or friends about this animal and then they go: "Squirrel", "squirrah", okay?
Because the "rl" is a very difficult combination of letters to pronounce, even for native speakers.
For example, this is one of the most difficult words in English to pronounce: "rural".
Okay?
Rural means, like, countryside.
Urban - city; rural - countryside.
See?
Even I have trouble with this word.
"rl" is difficult.
From...
For some nationalities it's very difficult because you don't distinguish between these
two to begin with.
So what are you going to do?
You're going to take it and try to connect it to another word that you do know.
Most people can say: "girl".
All you're doing is you're taking out the "g", you're putting in the "skw", and you
have the same word: "girl", "squirrel", a girl squirrel, a squirrel girl.
Same idea, same pronunciation, and then you play with other words you do know to get to
the words you don't know.
And again, here the reason there's a little accent on top of the "r" is because it kind
of drops into the...
Into the "l" which is actually what makes it difficult to pronounce: "rl", little ending
there.
Now, everybody...
I've heard all kinds of ways to say this word: "comfortable".
I'm not going to go through them, but listen to how I say it in regular speech.
"Cumf t'bl".
I don't pronounce the "r", I barely pronounce "table".
I don't say "table", I say "t'bl".
I squeeze all...
I squeeze it all together, I take out the vowels.
"Cumf t'bl", that's one way.
Some people do pronounce the "r": "cum for tabl".
The "tabl" is still not "table", it's "tabl", any way you say it.
Some people do say the "r", some people don't.
Some people make the "f" sound like a "p": "cumptabl".
It works for some, it doesn't work for anybody...
For everybody.
Whatever way you say it, it is not "comfortable".
That's not the correct way.
"Comftbl".
Okay?
So get used to this kind of words.
Get used to the IPA, very, very important, very useful if you want to sound like a native
speaker.
Okay?
So, a little bit difficult to make quizzes on this, but I did make a quiz with IPA, help
you study your IPA words.
Go to www.engvid.com, take the quiz, and practice your use of the IPA for pronunciation.
