started with the lesson before I start
talking to you about
I would just like to mention fruit and
vegetable the two nouns I often hear my
students make a mistake and if you can
correct this mistake you will sound much
more native vegetable is a countable
noun do you like this vegetable no I
prefer these vegetables when vegetable
is in its plural form we add an S to the
end vegetable vegetables fruit however
is slightly different it’s an exception
it’s not an uncountable noun but
sometimes we do treat it as an
uncountable noun if we want to talk
about fruit in general we wouldn’t say
fruits we would say fruit in a
supermarket you would see fruit and
vegetables not fruits and vegetables
fruit is rarely used with the plural s
except in phrases that require one for
example I ate three different fruits
this morning
now let’s discuss pronunciation I’m
going to start with fruit simply because
I am addicted to fruit I love it it’s my
