Hey Mark! the word 're-spon-si-bil-i-ty' has 6 syllables, so, as I was taught, it should have two stresses, one being the auxiliary stress and another the main stress, when the word is uttered in isolation, not in a sentence. The main stress is to be on the third syllable from the end and the auxiliary stress is to be in front but not touching the main, it should be in one step of it, that is: the second syllable has auxiliary stress and the forth has the main one. That way it sounds like this: re-sp(O)n-si-b[I]l-i-ti where square brackets mean the main stress. Sorry, I'm too bookish, I have no talent for teaching as you have! Thanks for a wonderful lesson! Take care! PS. By the way, that nife looked great as a pointer! :)))

[@MadEnglishTV]

Hi! 😃😃I think you should become the teacher at Mad English TV and I should relax and go on a trip. Haha

[@Vetgong]

@@MadEnglishTV Hi Mark! I'm glad you appreciated my homework :)))

[@Lanamebo]

I'm attendind an english school to improve and in free time i follow your channel. You are amazing, i understand all that you say without subtitles. You are helping me a lot. Thank you

[@MadEnglishTV]

😃😃

[@rainmeng7313]

You are the funniest teacher I've ever seen. The teaching stick here is a teaching knife.

[@MadEnglishTV]

😃😃

[@amantedelmondo1787]

I don't know man if any of my English teachers were to pull out a knife in the middle of the class I would get the hell out of dodge...

[@argenisperez5791]

You are doing a great Job with your videos. It has been my source of training for CELPIP and I will buy your books. Thank you very much.

[@phuongnguyenthi9955]

Thanks Mark! I choose no 4 for stress

[@DavidPowellAU]

At 6:02, I disagree. "Fifteen" has definite stress on the second syllable. "Fifty" has definite stress on the first. This in fact is a key learning to help listeners distinguish such numbers (13 from 30, 14 from 40, etc.). Word stress and sentence stress could be separately explained. For word stress (placement of syllable stress within a word), it's so easy to answer the question so many asked on how to determine it (a dictionary). Sentence stress is much harder to provide guidance for. Take the question, "How much does this cost?" Why in the unmarked case should "much" and "this" have greater stress than "How and "cost"?

[@sarac.3568]

I don't understand how fifteen has definite stress on the second syllable. I think he explained it very well; you could say it by stressing the first, or the second, or both syllables. Depends on where you're from, what the context of the sentence is etc. What I still don't understand after all this search is what's the actual difference between stress and intonation.

[@musicalaction7221]

Dear sir, you makes the intense education very easy by entertaining the monotony. You're the best one for me. I really loved you. Keep going sir.

[@luciadelviso9342]

You look so funny with the knife! Thank you for the lesson! Very useful!

[@souadnema253]

The way of killing the words is very helpful for me for the first time to understand the syllables and stress.I am waiting for more videos about intonation and pitch if you don't mind. you do good job.

[@MadEnglishTV]

Thank you so much, Souad! Where are you from? Yes, I'll try to make more lessons soon. 😃

[@souadnema253]

Hey Mark! I think re-spon-si-BIL-i-ti is the answer. Thank you so much for this interesting topic! Have a nice day and take care!

[@ilayozdemir]

That yellow knife really gives me a laughter everytime point out something with it :D thanks for the video.

[@polianapolain]

It took me a while to spot the knife in your hand pointing out to the board..and I loved it! It added so much fun to the lesson that was great btw where you cover important parts to the language. Will never forget that knife though ha ha PS: Answer - responsaBIlity. BI is the stress syllable.

[@MadEnglishTV]

Haha, great! 😃 Where are you from?

[@polianapolain]

I'm from Sao Paulo, Brazil born and raised, but I've lived in Australia for a few years now. I'm currently working on my pronunciation by watching videos like that one.

[@rashaalsaleh9815]

[@abdelilahjamali9099]

Hi! A very useful lesson. Thank you! Homework: the stress is on the fourth syllable of the word "responsibility.

[@sarac.3568]

The stress is on the fourth syllable in that case.

[@pie1518]

Many thanks, this is what I'm looking for ♥️♥️♥️

[@macvideoseditordevideo1182]

is it something like the equivalent of the tilde in Spanish?

[@jannyyao3789]

[@nev4696]

*Aye* this *helped* me, *thanks* .

[@abdullahhatip3814]

Good lesson, nice knife, and the stress falls on the second syllable.😁🌷

[@frankpastrana602]

What about if our native language has a different rhythm and pacing ? is there a guide that explains the rhythm of american english when questioning,when answering,when expressing some emotions ? I noticed this is very important.Because sometimes i watch a movie i already saw,and i wait for the character to say his line but when he says it i dont understand it at the first time because my brain was expecting to hear it in my native language rhythm.

[@deb7412]

He also speaks with an American accent and with american rhythm/intonation. Not English/British accent/intonation/rhythm of which is different to his own obviously. And to which his own (just like my own) differs to someone elses in same area or outside of same town/village/city/county/suburb/district/state.

[@lovemusic8862]

[@BaoNguyen-tl2uo]

I think #2 and #4 are stressed syllables. Am I right, aren't I? And this is good lesson, thank you :)

[@MadEnglishTV]

You're right! 😃

[@venkataramanakethu7750]

Super pronounce sir

[@houseofnyli9642]

I like this lesson. Knife is a solution to kill strong accent. So stressfull sometime having a strong accent.

[@thandicandy5452]

Practice and you'll get better

[@bayronrodriguez3755]

Thanks man

[@Yuno08888]

I like how you swing that knife around. Great lesson♥ i'm one step closer to sound Canadian♥♥

[@ЮлияЮхлю]

I have just resently discovered that my dialect of russian is closest to english: we have the same stress structure - we pronounce the stressed vowels clearly and totally reduce the rest!

[@lifelessons4812]

Very useful and simplified. Where can i get more such vids...can u send me links..

[@gentable]

RES-PON -SA BIL -I-TY I think bil is the stronger syllable

[@akubangtuah]

Wow i love it. U are great educator. Btw how to know where i need to put the 'stress' on syllables?

[@beverlyjones3391]

stress is on the second and fourth syllables of the word responsibility ..?

[@FunOrange42]

excellent knife work

[@mj703abulon]

thank you Mark, i think 1, 2, 4

[@redeemedone672]

Awesome video, thanks! Now I'll have fun unlearning all the wrong intonations, rythm and stress I learned at school XD

[@MadEnglishTV]

lol 😄😄

[@monikaricicova8373]

Good lesson, easy to understand. But without the alien symbols, I wouldn't have known where to put the certain stress in the word. How can I find out where to put the stress? Thank you.

[@MadEnglishTV]

You can look up the word in a dictionary. It will have a ' symbol before the stressed syllable.

[@hormarinaftaada539]

thanks but make a video how to learn these important parts of natural sound and where thanks again i hope you talk this issue

[@MadEnglishTV]

Okay :)

[@victoriacardozo5372]

Hi! I found your video very interesting, but I still have a doubt about it. Look im studing to be an English Teacher and we are learning this and i found it really difficult where to put the primary and where to put the secundary one and i thought that maybe you or somebody can help me. Thanks in advance :)

[@fabioamaros]

WOW! Your channel is amazing! I'm just asking myself why I haven't seen this before... +1 point to the knife ahahahahaha

[@MadEnglishTV]

Thanks so much Fabio! 😃😃Haha

[@HenriqueSantos-zj6yc]

Hey! I think be the fourth syllable. Am I right?

[@MadEnglishTV]

Right! 😃

[@HenriqueSantos-zj6yc]

[@ilikesandwich2507]

*the knife is killing me 🤣🤣🤣*

[@antoniacladerabohigas6292]

Great lesson, thanks! I think the stress is on BE, but maybe, as it is a very long word, I would stress also PON. Right?

[@jhonma24]

I'd like to know if you have any video talking about rhotic and non rhotic English and the cities and countries where the people talk non rhotic English

[@MadEnglishTV]

I don't have any videos about that topic!

[@jhonma24]

Mad English TV I think it's a good topic to make a video and the difference between Canadian English and UK English. And thanks for teaching us English. You're my favorite KZbin teacher. 😀👋

[@O-CONSERVADOR-CAPITALISTA]

English rythm is the most difficult thing for someone from a POrtuguese speaking country as me. believe me . to know which words we need to emphasize in a phrase quickly , automaticlly and naturally without thinking is almost impossible . but even so I know to speak well I must master this. I think the stress sylabble of the word responsibility is number 4. by the way I have a good suggestion of video for you Mark. many non native speakers have troubles in knowing if we need to use " it , this or that" at the end of the phrases, for example I love it, I love this or I love that. i have to master it, this or that etc. I always use them randomly, speacially it and this.

[@MadEnglishTV]

That's a great idea! Yes, it's hard to master those words! You're right, the stress is on the 4th syllable. 😃

[@O-CONSERVADOR-CAPITALISTA]

PLease make more videos about English rythm. Memorize words is very easy the problem is to pronounce them properly.

[@MadEnglishTV]

Okay! 😃 You're right.

[@stefaniechong9640]

[@isabellacicchetti6058]

There are many words in which I can actually hear two stresses, for example dòcumèntary or pèrsonàlity or sèrendi'pity. etc. Is it true? I suppose that this happens with pretty long words because our voice needs to "lean" on more than one syllabe. Thank you for a little answer..

[@MadEnglishTV]

Yes, many longer words have more than one stress, but in most cases, one of the stresses bigger than the other one. DocuMENtary PersoNALity SerenDIpity
