Good morning everyone! It is the morning over there right? Perhaps it’s the afternoon where you are located? Maybe nighttime? Either way, it looks like you may need my favorite drink; iced coffee! Hi, my name is Hubert, and I’m back again with a video about five different iced coffee hacks! Now, I don’t know about you but I always start off my days with a cup of iced coffee. I can’t do hot coffee mainly because I like downing my coffee immediately, so I can get the full effects of the caffeine. What do I mean by downing it? It means to drink all of something, especially when you do it quickly. I like my coffee black but I am open to the occasional flavor every so often. I used to be the sort of person who found black coffee disgusting but after a while, I grew a taste for it and now that’s the only way I like it. Sweetened coffee now feels like a treat to me, so this video is really interesting to me! Let’s dive into this video to find out exactly what these five hacks are! Hold up! Before watching the video, let’s focus on the featured sentence first!

Today’s featured sentence:
“If you're looking for an iced coffee that's a little more on the decadent side, go ahead and try my vanilla iced coffee, which basically is a combination of a whole lot of vanilla ice cream and some hot coffee poured over it.”

I’ll say that again.

“If you're looking for an iced coffee that's a little more on the decadent side, go ahead and try my vanilla iced coffee, which basically is a combination of a whole lot of vanilla ice cream and some hot coffee poured over it.”

Ok, now time for the Pronunciation Tips.

Pronunciation Tips:

First word.
decadent (deh·kuh·dnt)
Three syllables. Deh (has a short e sound), kuh (k sound paired with the phonetic u sound), and dent, decadent.

Next word.
Vanilla (vuh·ni·luh)
Three syllables. Avoid the trap of saying VAH knee la. It’s vuh, ni (short i sound), and luh (let the last sound roll off the tongue softly, luh), vanilla

Next up.
Basically (bay·si·klee)
Four syllables but actually sounds like three. Bay, si (has a short i sound), and klee is a blending of two sounds. Sounds like the TV show Glee but with a K sound instead. Klee. Basically.

Moving onto Vocabulary!

The first word is:
1. Decadent (adj.) KK[ˋdɛkədnt] IPA/ˈdek.ə.dənt/
Definition
Part of the pleasurable when used with food
Used in a sentence you could say,
“Champagne and chocolates for breakfast - how decadent!”

Next word,
2. Combination (n.) KK[͵kɑmbəˋneʃən] IPA[ˌkɑːm.bəˈneɪ.ʃən]
Definition
the mixture you get when two or more things are combined
An example would be,
“A combination of tiredness and boredom caused me to fall asleep.”

And lastly,
3. Basically (adv.) KK[ˋbesɪk!ɪ] IPA [ˈbeɪsɪkli]
Definition:
used when referring to the main or most important characteristic or feature of something
Used in a sentence you can say:
“The car's basically OK, but the paintwork needs some attention.”

Yum! Did you guys find any recipes to your liking? I can imagine the one hack with condensed milk to have a similar taste to Taiwan’s milk tea! Which one was your favorite? For a person who regularly hits the gym, I would have to say the breakfast smoothie coffee hack to be most appealing to me! I always make sure to drink coffee right before I hit the weights to give myself that extra kick! What I mean by kick is simply, energy!
Alright folks, that about does it for today’s Pronunciation Challenge. Make sure you watch the video if you haven’t already and do your recordings! Perhaps, even tell me some extra hacks that weren’t mentioned in the video! Share your secrets people! Until next time, peace!
