00:00:01.520 --> 00:00:04.830
well it's January and many of us make

2
00:00:04.830 --> 00:00:07.529
goals in January to be more fit and eat

3
00:00:07.529 --> 00:00:09.660
more healthy so today we're going to go

4
00:00:09.660 --> 00:00:11.940
over vocabulary relating to eating

5
00:00:11.940 --> 00:00:15.630
healthy and dieting paleo gluten free

6
00:00:15.630 --> 00:00:17.400
calorie and so on

7
00:00:17.400 --> 00:00:20.460
yes we'll focus on pronunciation so that

8
00:00:20.460 --> 00:00:22.230
you're comfortable not just knowing

9
00:00:22.230 --> 00:00:23.730
these words but using them in

10
00:00:23.730 --> 00:00:26.390
conversation

11
00:00:30.500 --> 00:00:33.060
hmm I've been walking for three minutes

12
00:00:33.060 --> 00:00:35.479
I think that's enough exercise for today

13
00:00:35.479 --> 00:00:38.760
to begin we'll focus on the word diet

14
00:00:38.760 --> 00:00:40.860
this word actually has a couple of

15
00:00:40.860 --> 00:00:44.309
different meanings first as a noun it

16
00:00:44.309 --> 00:00:46.470
can be used to describe the kind of food

17
00:00:46.470 --> 00:00:49.379
a person community culture or even

18
00:00:49.379 --> 00:00:52.680
animal usually eats for example koalas

19
00:00:52.680 --> 00:00:55.710
eat a diet of leaves so that just

20
00:00:55.710 --> 00:00:58.260
describes what someone eats but we also

21
00:00:58.260 --> 00:01:00.480
have a second meaning and this is not

22
00:01:00.480 --> 00:01:02.790
just a general way to describe what

23
00:01:02.790 --> 00:01:05.790
someone eats but a restriction usually

24
00:01:05.790 --> 00:01:07.650
to lose weight or be more healthy in

25
00:01:07.650 --> 00:01:09.690
some way for this we use the preposition

26
00:01:09.690 --> 00:01:12.830
on I'm going on a diet to lose weight

27
00:01:12.830 --> 00:01:15.540
I'm not going to have dessert because

28
00:01:15.540 --> 00:01:18.990
I'm on a diet diet it's a two syllable

29
00:01:18.990 --> 00:01:22.830
word with first syllable stress die the

30
00:01:22.830 --> 00:01:27.930
AI as in buy diphthong die diet then

31
00:01:27.930 --> 00:01:29.938
smoothly into the second syllable it's

32
00:01:29.938 --> 00:01:32.869
an e as in sit vowel and the T consonant

33
00:01:32.869 --> 00:01:36.090
diet between the AI diphthong and the a

34
00:01:36.090 --> 00:01:38.759
vowel it can feel like you go through

35
00:01:38.759 --> 00:01:45.328
the glide consonant Y die yet diet the

36
00:01:45.328 --> 00:01:47.969
ending T is a stop T unless it links

37
00:01:47.969 --> 00:01:49.829
into a word that begins with a vowel or

38
00:01:49.829 --> 00:01:52.770
diphthong like in the phrase I'm going

39
00:01:52.770 --> 00:01:56.009
to die at all month die at all die at

40
00:01:56.009 --> 00:01:57.840

00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:01.140
there it's a flap T it's also a flap T

42
00:02:01.140 --> 00:02:07.160
in the word dieting dieting or dieted

43
00:02:07.160 --> 00:02:11.340
dieted they're also a flap T I dieted

44
00:02:11.340 --> 00:02:14.010
last month he was dieting before the

45
00:02:14.010 --> 00:02:17.310
wedding say these three words out loud

46
00:02:17.310 --> 00:02:26.300
with me diet dieting dieted diet dieting

47
00:02:26.300 --> 00:02:29.430
dieted now let's talk about some of

48
00:02:29.430 --> 00:02:31.440
these diets out there where you restrict

49
00:02:31.440 --> 00:02:34.139
what you eat we have a vegetarian diet

50
00:02:34.139 --> 00:02:37.169
and a vegan diet vegetarian is a

51
00:02:37.169 --> 00:02:39.450
five-syllable word with middle syllable

52
00:02:39.450 --> 00:02:42.360
stress veg

53
00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:47.460
here Ian vegetarian vegetarian there is

54
00:02:47.460 --> 00:02:51.440
secondary stress on the first syllable

55
00:02:52.010 --> 00:02:55.919
vegetarian vegetarian now notice the

56
00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:58.580
word vegetable which is related is

57
00:02:58.580 --> 00:03:01.880
different it has first syllable stress

58
00:03:01.880 --> 00:03:07.230
vegetable vegetarian this is an

59
00:03:07.230 --> 00:03:09.540
adjective that can describe a person or

60
00:03:09.540 --> 00:03:12.570
a diet she's vegetarian she eats a

61
00:03:12.570 --> 00:03:15.360
vegetarian diet that restaurant doesn't

62
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:18.480
have many vegetarian options vegetarian

63
00:03:18.480 --> 00:03:22.320
means no meat vegan takes it one step

64
00:03:22.320 --> 00:03:23.940
further and is no meat or animal

65
00:03:23.940 --> 00:03:26.090
by-products like things made with eggs

66
00:03:26.090 --> 00:03:31.260
dairy or gelatin vegan with the e vowel

67
00:03:31.260 --> 00:03:33.290
is the much more common pronunciation

68
00:03:33.290 --> 00:03:37.350
though I've also heard vagin Philly

69
00:03:37.350 --> 00:03:39.120
restaurants have a lot of good vegan

70
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:44.310
options vegan vegetarian say these words

71
00:03:44.310 --> 00:03:50.239
with me vegetarian vegan vegetarian

72
00:03:50.239 --> 00:03:53.480
vegan you might also hear the term

73
00:03:53.480 --> 00:03:56.400
plant-based this isn't totally

74
00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:58.470
vegetarian but the majority of what you

75
00:03:58.470 --> 00:04:00.330
eat comes from plants rather than

76
00:04:00.330 --> 00:04:02.820
animals plant-based you'll hear that

77
00:04:02.820 --> 00:04:07.019
with a stop T plant-based that's because

78
00:04:07.019 --> 00:04:08.510
the next word begins with a consonant

79
00:04:08.510 --> 00:04:13.700
plant-based plant base there's no

80
00:04:13.700 --> 00:04:17.580
plant-based noticed the a vowel implant

81
00:04:17.580 --> 00:04:21.589
is not pure that would be play plant

82
00:04:21.589 --> 00:04:24.600
plant that's not how we say it when at

83
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:27.390
is followed by n then we relaxed the

84
00:04:27.390 --> 00:04:28.950
back of the tongue a little bit we get

85
00:04:28.950 --> 00:04:36.210
an a vowel plan plant plant plant based

86
00:04:36.210 --> 00:04:38.669
that makes it sound much more natural

87
00:04:38.669 --> 00:04:42.180
much more American plant based say that

88
00:04:42.180 --> 00:04:47.460
with me plant based plant based another

89
00:04:47.460 --> 00:04:50.040
diet one might follow is gluten-free or

90
00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:54.029
dairy free gluten free this means free

91
00:04:54.029 --> 00:04:55.390
of that ingredient

92
00:04:55.390 --> 00:04:58.900
no gluten in it no dairy in it you might

93
00:04:58.900 --> 00:05:00.930
also see the phrase fat-free or

94
00:05:00.930 --> 00:05:04.510
sugar-free as well no fat no sugar in

95
00:05:04.510 --> 00:05:07.990
that product the word gluten is a little

96
00:05:07.990 --> 00:05:10.029
tricky because what's happening to that

97
00:05:10.029 --> 00:05:15.070
tea again it's not gluten it's a stop T

98
00:05:15.070 --> 00:05:17.470
glue mmm

99
00:05:17.470 --> 00:05:20.610
put your tongue up into position glute

100
00:05:20.610 --> 00:05:26.440
stop the air glute hmm then simply make

101
00:05:26.440 --> 00:05:28.360
the end sound your tongue is already in

102
00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:32.230
position glute mmm gluten you don't need

103
00:05:32.230 --> 00:05:35.110
to move your tongue for that glute mmm

104
00:05:35.110 --> 00:05:38.320
gluten don't try to put a vowel in the

105
00:05:38.320 --> 00:05:41.170
second syllable it's just an N and as a

106
00:05:41.170 --> 00:05:43.240
syllabic consonant it takes over the

107
00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:47.200
schwa gluten gluten let's say that with

108
00:05:47.200 --> 00:05:54.180
me gluten gluten free gluten gluten free

109
00:05:54.180 --> 00:05:56.980
then we have more specific diets like

110
00:05:56.980 --> 00:06:00.070
paleo this is short for a Paleolithic

111
00:06:00.070 --> 00:06:03.580
diet also called the caveman diet this

112
00:06:03.580 --> 00:06:05.830
is a diet that mimics the way humans ate

113
00:06:05.830 --> 00:06:07.630
in the Paleolithic period as

114
00:06:07.630 --> 00:06:09.910
hunter-gatherers and it has been popular

115
00:06:09.910 --> 00:06:11.400
in the United States

116
00:06:11.400 --> 00:06:15.700
paleo 3 syllables first syllable stress

117
00:06:15.700 --> 00:06:21.370
pay Leo paleo the L here is a white L

118
00:06:21.370 --> 00:06:27.310
pay Li o paleo say that with me

119
00:06:27.310 --> 00:06:31.990
paleo paleo also rising in popularity in

120
00:06:31.990 --> 00:06:35.170
the US is something called the keto diet

121
00:06:35.170 --> 00:06:38.560
this is short for ketogenic it's very

122
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:41.140
low carb moderate in protein and high in

123
00:06:41.140 --> 00:06:43.360
fat from what I understand I've never

124
00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:45.220
done it I've never done any of these

125
00:06:45.220 --> 00:06:47.260
diets for the record but I have used

126
00:06:47.260 --> 00:06:49.000
calorie counting to lose weight after

127
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:50.920
having children and I'll get to that in

128
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:53.260
a minute I went to you wish to see how

129
00:06:53.260 --> 00:06:55.270
people are pronouncing this and when

130
00:06:55.270 --> 00:06:56.830
they're talking about the diet they're

131
00:06:56.830 --> 00:06:59.860
using a flap T keto when it's a

132
00:06:59.860 --> 00:07:01.710
scientist talking about chemistry

133
00:07:01.710 --> 00:07:04.960
usually in that case it's a true T keto

134
00:07:04.960 --> 00:07:09.190
keto keto keto since we're talking

135
00:07:09.190 --> 00:07:11.320
diet tier will use this flap t

136
00:07:11.320 --> 00:07:16.140
pronunciation Kido Kido say that with me

137
00:07:16.140 --> 00:07:21.880
Kido Kido hole 30 this is an elimination

138
00:07:21.880 --> 00:07:24.490
diet you take out soy dairy sugar

139
00:07:24.490 --> 00:07:28.090
alcohol grains legumes that would be a

140
00:07:28.090 --> 00:07:31.030
broad term that includes beans for 30

141
00:07:31.030 --> 00:07:34.360
days then you slowly reintroduce foods

142
00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:37.060
to see how your body reacts to them for

143
00:07:37.060 --> 00:07:39.250
example do you get more stomachaches

144
00:07:39.250 --> 00:07:42.820
do you feel more tired hole 30 the w/in

145
00:07:42.820 --> 00:07:44.530
hole is silent

146
00:07:44.530 --> 00:07:47.230
it's a homophone with this word hole as

147
00:07:47.230 --> 00:07:52.080
in a hole in the ground hole 30 hole

148
00:07:52.080 --> 00:07:55.300
that's kind of a weird word right the L

149
00:07:55.300 --> 00:08:00.040
is a dark L hole oh oh we don't lift the

150
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:01.840
tongue tip for that it's made with a

151
00:08:01.840 --> 00:08:05.620
back part of the tongue hole it presses

152
00:08:05.620 --> 00:08:08.770
down and back just a little bit hole it

153
00:08:08.770 --> 00:08:10.810
affects the Oh diphthong - doesn't it

154
00:08:10.810 --> 00:08:16.540
hole it's not ho ho but it's hole hole

155
00:08:16.540 --> 00:08:21.130
hole 30 hole 30 so the lips round more

156
00:08:21.130 --> 00:08:22.690
and the tongue is already pulling back a

157
00:08:22.690 --> 00:08:25.419
little bit for the dark sound it affects

158
00:08:25.419 --> 00:08:30.190
the diphthong hole hole 30 30 is also a

159
00:08:30.190 --> 00:08:35.890
tricky word first an unvoiced th 30 the

160
00:08:35.890 --> 00:08:37.390
tongue tip has to come through for that

161
00:08:37.390 --> 00:08:39.610
sound then the our vowel consonant

162
00:08:39.610 --> 00:08:44.970
combination thir thir then a flap T 30

163
00:08:44.970 --> 00:08:49.410
30 right into the unstressed vowel 30

164
00:08:49.410 --> 00:08:55.290
hole 30 say that with me hole 30 hole 30

165
00:08:55.290 --> 00:08:58.150
the Mediterranean diet has also gotten

166
00:08:58.150 --> 00:09:00.280
quite a bit of attention in the US and

167
00:09:00.280 --> 00:09:02.170
there are quite a few medical studies

168
00:09:02.170 --> 00:09:04.210
that back that this really will improve

169
00:09:04.210 --> 00:09:06.970
your health long term this diet is based

170
00:09:06.970 --> 00:09:09.190
on the traditional cuisine of countries

171
00:09:09.190 --> 00:09:12.100
bordering the Mediterranean and includes

172
00:09:12.100 --> 00:09:16.170
lots of vegetables fish and whole grains

173
00:09:16.170 --> 00:09:19.630
Mediterranean that is a long word six

174
00:09:19.630 --> 00:09:22.270
syllables with long words like this

175
00:09:22.270 --> 00:09:25.000
does help to focus on stress there's

176
00:09:25.000 --> 00:09:27.090
secondary stress on the first syllable

177
00:09:27.090 --> 00:09:34.630
met méditerranée stress on the fourth

178
00:09:34.630 --> 00:09:42.780
syllable Mediterranean Mediterranean

179
00:09:42.780 --> 00:09:46.240
Mediterranean notice the T in this word

180
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:49.210
is a true T this is an exception it

181
00:09:49.210 --> 00:09:51.370
comes between two vowels but it does not

182
00:09:51.370 --> 00:09:53.890
start a stressed syllable normally that

183
00:09:53.890 --> 00:09:56.020
would be a flap T but we do pronounce

184
00:09:56.020 --> 00:09:59.220
this word with the true T Mediterranean

185
00:09:59.220 --> 00:10:01.740
Mediterranean say that with me

186
00:10:01.740 --> 00:10:06.400
Mediterranean Mediterranean the next two

187
00:10:06.400 --> 00:10:08.679
are probably a little bit less popular

188
00:10:08.679 --> 00:10:10.420
than they were at one point but they're

189
00:10:10.420 --> 00:10:13.090
still very big in the US the Atkins diet

190
00:10:13.090 --> 00:10:16.120
and the South Beach diet the word Atkins

191
00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:18.429
is actually trademarked it's named after

192
00:10:18.429 --> 00:10:20.530
the man who came up with this specific

193
00:10:20.530 --> 00:10:23.620
diet it calls itself the more flexible

194
00:10:23.620 --> 00:10:25.950
Quito and is a low carb diet

195
00:10:25.950 --> 00:10:29.080
Atkins notice we have a stop T in there

196
00:10:29.080 --> 00:10:33.220
just like in gluten Atkins this is

197
00:10:33.220 --> 00:10:34.600
because the T is followed by another

198
00:10:34.600 --> 00:10:38.559
consonant Atkins first syllable stress

199
00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:42.130
begins with the as in bat vowel Atkins

another low carb diet the focus is on

203
00:10:50.350 --> 00:10:53.410
something called the glycemic index this

204
00:10:53.410 --> 00:10:55.480
is a way to measure how quickly a food

205
00:10:55.480 --> 00:10:58.600

206
00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:01.210
