“In order to reach your highest potential, it is imperative that you remove all negative people from your life.” ― Germany Kent
Good day, everyone, it’s your host, Hubert with the latest Pronunciation Challenge episode! Today, I will be presenting a video about toxic people! What does toxic mean exactly? Well, it sort of means poison but can also be used towards friendships and relationships. For example, being in a toxic relationship means you’re in a bad relationship that isn’t good for you. Many people stay in toxic relationships for reasons only they know and I cannot judge them for. Perhaps, they’re too in love or blinded with the person they’re in a relationship with? If it’s a friend, perhaps it’s someone you’ve known your entire life? In my opinion, having toxic people in your life isn’t a good thing and I try to avoid spending time with them. I always believe that the quality of a friendship beats out the quantity (the amount or number of something) of time you’ve known a particular person. There’s a saying that goes something like, “You are the sum of who you surround yourself with.” This means that you are who you spend the most time with. If you’re around a bunch of slackers, then you will have the urge to be a slacker too. Pick your crowd carefully! Let’s get to the featured sentence after you’ve finished watching the video.
Today’s featured sentence: On this week’s WellCast, we’re gonna show you how you can tell if you’re even in a toxic relationship and then, we’re gonna help you extricate yourself from that unhealthy situation pronto.
I’ll say that again.
On this week’s WellCast, we’re gonna show you how you can tell if you’re even in a toxic relationship and then, we’re gonna help you extricate yourself from that unhealthy situation pronto.
Ok, now time for the Pronunciation Tips.
For the first word, we have Toxic Two syllables. “TO” has a short O sound and “XIC” sounds like the word “sick” like you’re sick with a fever. Toxic.
Next up, we have Extricate Three syllables “EX” sounds like the letter X. “TRI” has the TR sound like “train, triangle, and truck”. “CATE” simply sounds like the name “Kate” like Kate Winslet from Titanic. Extricate.
For the last one, we have, Situation Four syllables. “SI” has a short i sound. “TU” sounds like the word “chew” like you’re chewing on something. “A” is simply the letter A and “tion” is your typical “i o n” ending sound, “shun”. Situation.
Moving onto Vocabulary!
The first word is: 1. Toxic Definition causing you a lot of harm and unhappiness over a long period of time Used in a sentence you could say, “I had to leave that toxic relationship behind and start anew.”
Next word, 2. Extricate Definition to remove something or set something free with difficulty Used in a sentence, you could say: “The soldiers used a detailed plan to extricate their commanding officer from the terrorists.”
And lastly, 3. Pronto Definition quickly and without delay Used in a sentence, you could say: “Make sure you finish that assignment for me pronto.”
After watching today’s video, do you have any toxic people in your life? You know, sometimes a toxic person can even be a family member which makes cutting them off even harder. However, sometimes that is what it takes for you to move on and have a happier life. It’s not easy and definitely a difficult decision to make. You can’t save them all. On the flip side, maybe you’re the toxic one which means you’ll have to do some inner reflection and think about how you’re hurting or dragging other people down with you. This is where you have to get honest with yourself and see if you can make some changes. It’s never too late. I believe in you. I had to cut many people off myself over the years and honestly, sometimes I was the problem too, and stepping away to grow was the best decision for everyone involved.
Alright everyone, hope you found today’s episode useful. I certainly did. If you want to reach out and say hi, find me on Instagram @hughtran_. As always, thanks for listening and I’ll see everyone again in the next episode! Bye!
