Our question today is how to pronounce the words immune which means resistant to an infection immunize and immunity So let's take a look at these words. We have immune, immunize, and immunity. So let's start with word number one. You are going to pronounce this word by stressing syllable 2. So that syllable is going to be louder and higher in pitch and the vowel is going to be longer. And in this case we are going to use the vowel u as in you out there listening. No for syllable number one, I have it listed as a short I because I think most people tend to read it this way. Keep in mind that this is a short unstressed syllable so the vowel is going to be shorter and relaxed and unstressed. You can say ummune or immune either is fine. They're both super close. The key is it's unstressed and it's very short. So again right here we have immune immune immune Now when we add the ize everything is going to say the same. imuniz immunize immunize immunize That syllable stress is going to stay the same and we're going to continue stressing syllable number two. Last when we have immunity the stress stays the same. Oh my goodness! If you watched my video last week you know that this ity is a stress imposing suffix and it will change the rules and it means that you shift the stress. In this case you don't have to shift the stress because we always stress the syllable right before the Uh D. And in this case it's still the U so that's why this confuses some people because we don't change that stress. So we have im you nadi im you nadi Let's try them all together: immune immune immune immunize immunize immunize immunity immunity immunity immune immunize immunity So give it a try I know people are going to notice the difference.
