You’ve probably watched movies and wondered why you were missing some of the jokes, or couldn’t follow the conversation even though you heard and understood the words clearly. In this lesson, you’ll find out that a big part of communication is not just language, but how we speak.

edlene (brazil)
thank you sir and welcome for us.
A new style of teaching.
I enjoyed it very much.
Welcome teacher! Engvid is going to become even more energetic!
If she stressed the word THAT’S, why didn’t Kathy think that another guy was Lisa’s boyfriend?
Or if she stressed the word LISA’S, why didn’t Kathy think that he was your boyfriend by any chance?
How do we know what was in her mind?
I totally agree what you said!!
Hi Bonhob,
You’re right. t’s hard to tell, especially when you see the stress in writing. If you noticed, the question said what MIGHT the person understand. Of course it could be other things, but I tried to make the answer choices a little more obvious. In reality, the context and the personality of the speaker will be much more helpful in knowing what they intend to communicate. The point to take away from here is to listen carefully to how words are being expressed and realizing that meaning does not rely on surface definitions alone.
Good job pointing this out.
yes it’s absolutely right and you are a great teacher
You are totally right, teacher Adam! It is a good lesson. I really understand what you mean… You are a good teacher. Congratulations!
But I don’t understood what the stress give me to understand meaning
please give answer really soon Adam
Thanks Adam for your lesson, welcome to engvid.com, I looking forward to see the next lesson.
Well done ! Thanks a lot.

I like your idea and the way you explain it .. thanks adam .
i like your idea and the way you explain it .. thanks adam best regard .
It is pretty clear!!! Fantastic!
Hi,Adam! I have a doubt about the quiz.
Can you ask me what’s the diffence between very and a lot?
Thanks and welcome!
Hi Margaret,
What’s the difference between very and a lot?
:)
Maybe you meant to ask me that. well, ‘very’ is used to describe the intensity of something. ‘A lot’ is used usually to talk about quantity. So… I like you a lot, or I like you very much–same meaning, but you’ll notice that ‘very’ needs the quantity word ‘much.’ Also, ‘very’ can come before a verb, but ‘a lot’ can’t. So… He runs very fast, but not he runs a lot fast.
Does that help?
Thanks for understanding my question rsrsrs, and yes, you help me a lot!
Awesome!
Why is there something wrong with my IE when I watch the lessons vedio? Who can do me a favor,please?
My email is:
zhongdeming@buaa.edu.cn

Adam, I really like your lesson! I look forward to listening more your lessons indeed.
Thanks a lot :)

Thank You in advance,
Yours truly,
Nila.
Hi Nila,
Lots of stuff here to cover, and I’ll try to get to some of these, but for now, just keep in mind that newspapers and other media forms are working with limited space and sometimes take shortcuts. That being said, once you have good control of grammar rules you can then begin to break them (or at least bend them). I’ll try to show you some examples of this in a future lesson.
1. b. It happened before something else happened
3. a. Students who have questions… (Students are plural)
4. a. Everyone has… b. No one has.. c. Everybody has… d. Everyone has… People are…
6. a. disabled is an adjective that means lacking one or more of the physical or mental abilities that most people have
Hi, Adam, how are you? Welcome to the world of EngVid. I am very happy about your lesson and the way you teach. I am expecting more lessions from you and I am looking forward to watcing more and more lessions from you. Thanks a lot.
Hi Adam, thank you very much and Welcome. The explanation was quite clear. What’s more, REALLY did not know that had many meanings. And I realized that the intonation is very important to interpret the ideas and speak clearly. Thank you again.
actually,I like this video and way of your teaching……. thank you Adam…
it’s a very helpful and useful lesson, … thank you so much teacher
VERY HELPFUL THANKS

This is one of the great lessons on Engvid. I wonder if I can be teacher on Engvid someday! By the way, I am English teacher here in Pakistan. I have taught many students who can now speak and understand English very well.
useful….tnks so much…..
Well done teacher, i hope watch more videos….you speak very clear !!
Very nice your explanation teacher!!….I want more!!
Welcome
Very helpfull Adam, please send more videos like this.
thanx a lot sir Adam .
Good! Thanks for the lesson!
hi, Adam. very clarifying this lesson – really important. I liked it very much. it’s the first time i take a lesson from you and i have to say that you are a great teacher. you are right. sometimes, when i watch movies, i see that the actors say something that doesn’t fit very well with the situation if you pick only the real meaning of the words, but from now on, i’ll pay more atention to the intonation. i am sure that, in this way, i’ll understand the exact meaning of the sentence because i’ll understand the language based on the context, on the situation.
Thank you mr.Adam
great work.
thanks, Teacher Adam and welcome…
oh it realy good
Thanks Adam.
It was excellent.i got some odea about stress patterns………..thanks Mr Adam

Hello Alex :)
Could you explain me the meaning of LAY DOWN? Like in a song “don’t want to let it lay me down this time…”
SORRY! I meant Adam, of course :)))
Hi there,
Here,lay down means “2 give up”.
Goooooooodlucccccccccck!
:) Fatima is right, it means to give up, surrender.
Hi mr. Adam,
could you please work more on pronuciation.i really need to get my pronuciation right.i’m a student,studying english litrature and i need help with learning elemnets of poet
i’ll be grateful :)
Like. Thanks very much.
Great, wonderful class, i undertood everything that you said and the mening about this subject is very very good, it’s a diferent way we could say about theaching ESL language. i’ve been studying English by skype with some new yorkers theachers and i can tell it’s a very good way to learn too. Congratulations for your class and keep doing something diferent as you did. Great.
good
Thanks Mr.Adam. And It would be interesting to see if some of the Nila’s point can be cover in your future lessons. Because I also have almost same questions and I hope others also have same questions and I find media articles are confusing and looks like breaking the grammar rules and it was nicely said that “media has limited space” and now I understand why always media articles are so confused and I’m waiting to see new lesson that will Nila’s concern.
Thanks and well come to Engvid.
Best Regards,
Tamil Eelavan.

Thank you very much for this very helpful lesson!
Hi!
that was “REALLY” useful! Is there a way to download videos?
awesome!You focused on the real communication skills and that’s what I really wanted. What a grrrrrreat point you’ve picked! I look forward to the lectures of yours.
If you’re wondering why a word is or is not in a sentence, you should stress the word which means to say it louder no matter how many syllables it has.
You’re great!
Thank you a lot!!
HI, Adam i think that you are a very good teacher,your lessons are very easy to understand.
thanks a lot.
Like your lesson so much. Looking forward to learn more.
Thank you teacher.
EngVid is the best site ever.
Hi,Adam. I am from Cambodia. I found your clip very useful. I have studied English in ages, but it is still hard to understand English native speakers. Could you tell some technique to study English faster? Thanks in advance, from Phnom Penh.
thanks to you sir .It was so helpful 4 me …but I have a question please ..waht is the difference If I say (so good) and (very good ) ??? thanks you
I am really happy the way you teach. Thank you
Thank you so much
I think that it’s very difficult to understand the situations in this test. For example, the sentence about Lisa’s boyfriend (6), i can think that he is very handsome for Lisa (she is ugly) and that’s why I’m so surprised or really i thought that he is Lisa’s friend. Please, correct me if i’m wrong
i agreed with u elimy. it is for native speakers ..we said.. but we can learn little by little .. what do u do? r u interested in english chatting on gtalk? or any one else from here for pratice .. plz write me tnx adm for good lecture..
thanks for all but he helped me to to understand more
Thank u sir iam learning english i read . learn but i have no one with tyr my english but iam not lost my hope
It was a simple and super lesson… No language center here teaches intonation as I heard about them. You all guys doing super job in spreading education. We will definitely would not forget you throughout our life. Be blessed.
Very. Interesting
It is what I haven’t known before
Thank you very much

Excelente curso y ademas pensado para que se entienda fácil. Solo una cosa me llama la atención: ¿es dirigido solamente a países de habla inglesa? Porque los apoyos van solamente en inglés…Acaso nadie de habla hispana se interesa por el curso?
thanks for teaching and i wold like to learn more english pleace help me
It’s a VERY interesting lesson, REALLY ! Thanks Adam.
DEAR SIR
i have a little prob on the usage of ”where”..i know how to use it with all other ways besides this rule please help me..
I wanna know how to use ”where” with these words and what the grammar rule is..pls give me a few examples of your own ones..
1 Due to the volume of emails we receive we are unable to respond to the emails where the answer can be found on our web site itself
2 If you have gone to a website where you have to create an account for yourself..
3 This procedure should be followed in cases where dishonesty has been alleged.
4 I heard a strange noise from the upstairs where the children were playing.
5 There is a stage in life where you can’t even hold a cup of tea.
Thanking you
Roystan
My score is too bad, I feel that I can’t learn English At all my life!!
thank’s
Adam, how can we express stress while writing say, an essay or a paragraph? Can we use the(`) symbol?
Thanks a lot!!
I realized again that English is very curious language.
When speaking, I have to care about accent, pronunciation, and intonation…..
Hmm, seemingly it looks difficult.
I keep all things in my mind at the same time.
I seem to need to get used to speaking English more.
UTTERLY PERFECT …!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please, make a bit more lessons about sleng and speaking)
Thank you alot your the best ♥♥♥♥♥
You’re**
Thank you, Adam! I´m preparing for the First Certificate Exam, and this lesson is really useful for the listening part.
Awesome. :)
Dear Adam, I have a question about “How does stress change the meaning of a sentence” . In this sentence “I am an English teacher” if the stress is on English it means that you are an English teacher and not mathematics, and if the stress is on teacher it means that you are just a teacher and your nationality is English?? Is that correct?
thx u mr adam
thanks Adam and that is really kindly ……
i got 3 out of 10..grrrrr it’s hard for me to understand for now…sir adam,could you please give me a tips to understand this .

Hi Adam! I have missed you and your’s lessons, so much! I’m sorry,I was not be able to write on site about 5 months, because I was in hospital(with TBI). I even wasn’t be able to read again my favorite(and one of Yours) “The picture of Dorian Grey” because of it. Now I had moved to my parents, which is living in little village, I must be under their control(because of TBI). There is no high-speed Internet(only GPRS about 15kb.sec). I can’t even watch your new lessons(only text to you). So boring! But I made one little song recently. Only I’m not sure about text(couldn’t You to check it, please(there is only 6 line)). Goodbye.
Interesting matter, Adam!
Should I say “Really good lesson!” or “Really a good lesson!”?
Thank you
I like yours way in teatching . But i don’t know what is the right way to learning English language ?
can you help me and tell me for where i can begin to learn English .

Thanks, Adam! Intonations can be so surprising!!!
I have learned this by “American Accent Training! Good lesson!
Hi teacher Adam :)
Can you make the video about “off” special to me, please? hehe i’m so confused that “off” had a lot of meaning
thanks :)
Wow! what an interesting lesson. I was so surprising how Mr. Adam spoke more than 130 words in the first 50 seconds.
8/10, and when i chose answers i was not very sure. still have to say this is very helpful, especially something you said is really similar one book i read a little before” American accent training”, seems that i should study it again and hope i can finish it, and after that i will come to this same lesson again to check myself. anyway, thank you Adam, i will come here, this website everyday to study for all you great teachers, happy new year!
thanks alot about lessons and I want to see alot in coming day ,,,
I am really appreciate for your video. Keep going. :)
thank you so much ….all the best

Thanks for every lesson U R really great teacher!!!
Awesome, teacher!
I like all your lessons, that’s REALLY important to know it, coz sometimes someone that started learning english try to speak and doesn’t worry about the intonation due they put in mind just the idea of translate things and forget the factor that would make sense…

This is really difficult and need more practice)) thanks a lot Adam!

This video was wonderful.I enjoyed it a lot .thank you very much for your teaching…
Probably it is one of more interesting Engvid’s videos that I have watched. Thanks a lot!
Interesting !I’ve never heard this:-D
Good I like it
I find this type of lessons very useful.
There are a lot of books in which we can read about grammar rules but we usually can’t find there any information about how stress changes the meaning of the sentence. And we rather don’t have any chance to listen to any examples.
Thanks alot M Adam for this interesting lesson,I found it very helpful and i wish you can make other videos about stress and intonation
I watched the video two times not that i understand, just this lesson is entertaining. Thanks for this. You are a great teacher Adam :)

Thank you Adam.
Thanks Adam :D
It helps me to speak people in English and understand when watching dramas.
you are the best teacher that I have ever met
thank you so much Adam. your lessons are very clear and understood.
Hi, Adam! Are you there?
First, I want to say I like your smile on video, it’s very friendly and attractive.
I am a new register for Engvid, and I am a beginner in English even though I have lived USA over 20 years.
At question #1~3 ” You want that?” I understand that sentence omitted word”Do”
Instead of “Do you want that?”
But at question #4~6 “That’s Lisa’s boyfriend?”, should it be” Is that Lisa’s boyfriend?”?
I really hope you can see it and give a comment. I’ll appreciate for your time!
thanks very much sir iam very interest about this and i wish if u can upload more video about this (Speaking)
Hi Adam, This video was very interesting. Thank you!
I was terrible in this lesson. I’ll practice more that. Thanks Adam.
it’s not very good
thanks :)
Thanks very much
Hello. I am hard of hearing. I would like improve my English but I need subtitles. Could you make subtitles or transcription? Thank you.
Hi Kanarkowa,
The process of transcribing videos and making subtitles is unfortunately expensive and takes a lot of time. All of our videos from 2013 on have subtitles. We have not yet been able to go back and add transcripts and subtitles to old videos. I would like to, but it is difficult to justify the cost. Hopefully, this will be possible in the future. Some good news I have, though, is that we will soon be adding more features related to the subtitles that I hope will make them even more useful for learning. You’ll also soon get access to full transcripts that you will be able to view or print out.
Thank you for quick reply. I understand, so I’ll watch videos from 2013.
Hi! We’ve been adding subtitles to our videos for a while now, but older ones won’t have them. You can turn them on by clicking the “CC” button in the lower right corner of the video.
I’m really excited to be PART of this lesson based on stress, cause it’s really helpful
What a lovely lesson :)
Thank you
good lessons
it’s very hard , i got 5/10 Unfortunately
Thank you
thank you
thank you teacher Adam i really appreciate your teaching

Thank you
Perfect
Moderator note: Please don’t just leave one-word comments! Take the opportunity to practice your English. Here’s a cat gif.
Really good :)
Sir! I really like your lessons because you teach basic things in English thanks alot but give me one favour that you teacj regular english and some words use in American english and make sentence structure.. Thank you
one of the most awesome and handsome teacher that i have ever met
Thanks for the lesson
its very difficut adam that guss like you
Hi Adam
I think both choices “b” and “c” in Q4 conceptually are same and correct answers and depends on details of the story and also the correct answers in Q7,8,10 actually depend on the moments and situation and obvious feelings of boss and employee’s faces.
Thank you Adam !!! ^^
It’s my first day at the Engvid and I hope it won’t be last)
Thank you Adam for clear explanation and good providing the material, it was REALLY enjoyable.
Very good lesson that I really appreciated.
Yes, really.
Thanks Adam.
I liked it!
Thx!
Hi Adam , I can’t speak in my daily life because I don’t have any native speaker to communicate with he , can you help my,please I want to use it but I can’t
Thank you …
thanks Adam
yh tanks adam
i ment thanks adam
Fantastic! I really like this lesson. Thanks Adam.
very useful quiz. l have 7 corrects but some answers are really similar each other. so which mean l use “really” in my last sentence? :D :D
It’s difficalt to understand the meaning of the world not hearing it(
Thank you for your lesson, Adam))
70%
It’s hard to do such intonational tasks without hearing because IMHO in several questions there were two matching points that depended on intonation. Anyway thanks)
Oh, and be careful with your felt-tip=)
this is very funny lesson.
I wan’t to start learning English from the earlier levels what should I do?????
good morning
Hi Adam
what should i say when i want to ask someone if he attend the meeting yesterday or not
“are you attend the meeting”
or ” did You attend the Meeting
please, can you explain to me, because i often wrong to use the word
Thank you teacher Adam. I watched your video.
Am i the only filipino here?
very useful tutorials. thanks Adam
very useful tutorials. thanks Adam
Hi Adam! I found this webside on your YouTube channel and I think it’s amazing.
I’m very confused about this topic, I understand it well but it’s hard for me to know how people are expressing thought stress sentences
hello everyone i am a dentistry student in turkey and i wanna improve my english every time i watch engvid videos but i need more practice with someone any one if you want to speak with me and make practice with me maybe on whatsapp or another ways please keep in touch with me or mail me my mail adress yasincelik1998@hotmail.com
Thanks Thanks Thanks
thanks a lot , new information
am new here and i would like to find new lessons about IELTS test
That was REALLY helpful.
Intonation can be very confusing. I was told these two sentences:
1) John said the Boss is an idiot.
2) John, said the Boss, is an idiot.
Only the intonation will tell you who is the speaker of each sentence. Try to say them both and you will see the difference. Thanks Adam!
It’s not always easy to understand what you read, you should see facial expressions! :-|
That’s what emoticons are for! :-)
Thanks a bunch Adam for your clear explanations.
nice lesson, it was REALLY helpful
It’s my first positive result ??
I really thought that I would get 10….
Great lesson!!!
It was difficult, but i liked it.
this is a word what we usually use in many different situation.
this is a word what we usually use in many different situation.
next time I will do better to get passed on this quiz .. I am now starting and a beginner. I wanna learn more.
Awesome
It’s really difficult to understand the actual meanings of each stressed words. This reminds me of the sentence, “Read between the lines”.
I think this quiz is a little bit hard but I got 90 points, i missed the last question but doesn’t matter :) You Adam, you’re my favorite teacher in EngVid. It’s easy to understand you and that’s giving me courage. I’ll be following you, my teacher :)
hello Mr. Adem,
i start today the first lesson with you
hello Mr. Adem,

Hi, Adam! Very nice and interesting lesson! It’s really nice to see the importance and the effects of intonation in a situation of communication! Thanks! This lesson helped me a lot to pay attention in this challenging aspect of learn a language! See ya!
IT’S VERY USEFUL FOR ME(:
Thank you Mr. Adam.
Great examples to practice with. I would love more of this type of lessons, please?
That was so amazing
thanks a million
I wish everybody in the world would speak in English like you Adam, even native speakers. Сlearly, correctly, coordinated, understandably…It’s a dream)))
hahahaha. My aim is just to speak, not like Adam who is Canadian, but speak.
very helpful for beginners.
very interesting really!!!
I think this lesson is much understandable while conversation instead reading the text. as I understand it is all about expression.
Hi, Adam!
Thank you! Your lessons are very helpful!
My question is: is there only one quiz for each lesson?
That was great. Thank you very much for lesson
English is really interesting
I think Adam’s lessons are not difficult to follow and give helpful knowledge. I’m starting watching his oldest video on May 18, 2020, and will keep on watching. Thanks for the best lessons!
7/10! This is my first lesson with Adam’s video. Your lesson is more native and more difficult for me. I need study hardly and carefully.
Thank you and the quiz is good

Thank you Adam, I have been able to watch all you videos on Engvid.com and has enlightened me very well
thanks boss
u are awesome
thanks Adam. for your help.
Dear Mr. Adam,
My name is Hoang Thi Chau An, and I’m a student at Vinh University, Viet Nam. I have visited your youtube channel and watched your video. I’m writing to ask your permission to use your video to insert it into my video.
As you just know, I am a student and now I have to do a project about my English course. Therefore my teacher asked me to find a video about it. My mission is to learn from it and insert that video as guidance in my video. I currently have found great value in your video and would appreciate your permission to use it.
I hope you and your team can support my project and I would love to let use your video illegally.
Yours sincerely,
Hoang Thi Chau An
Thanks a lot.
8/10
NOT BAD
Hello Adam! That was interesting lesson, even so it was recorded 11 years ago. I find it really informative, but had few troubles with quiz. Some intonations were hard to recreate to understand specific meaning. Anyway all of that was useful, so I am going to watch all of your YouTube videos in the near future. Thank you for so high quality and free content. Please, don’t stop!
greate
