Thank you Tim for this wonderful and helpful lesson. It will help me to pronounce some words with right stress without taking help from dictionary.

Btw, I want to add one thing is that the syllable before TION in any word is stressed.

MENtion, congratuLAtion,

Great program! You can make it an exceptional one, if you add the available transcription option to your all your videos.

[nikivable]

I would say that most of the time when someone doesn't understand me, is because of incorrect word stressing. So everytime when someone looks like didn't understand what I said, I change the stressing, and then there is no problem :)

[miguelhoeven]

How about "comparative", "relative", "imperative"?

[mohameda.]

Hi Tim, i have one quastion?

Words with ion in the End. The stress is on the syllable bevor, does it right?

Sorry, if I made mistake in the quastion

[florantunia]

Americans stress the third syllable so technically it’s not wrong to do it

[abirchowdhury]

The verb for placing the piece in the paper.... To Advertise.... this is pronounced ad-ver- TISE... (ties).. you do not ad - ver- tiss- .... same as to harass someone... long and on second syllable.. that is correct

[Domiciano]

Very important! This paid pronunciations...

[jenniferwyatt]

People stress wrong syllable in contribute.... so when someone adds to something.., . The noun is called a contribution.... if you pronounce it your way.. the word contribution cannot even be pronounced at all

[MuhammadEgypt]

Well, the Americans say it differently, though. I guess they say 5 syllables?

[xinnasun]

but I learnt from my high school and the pronunciation was /əd'və:tismənt/
