Quick pronunciation win: stress can change meaning.
PREsent (noun) = a gift
preSENT (verb) = to show / to give a presentation
Examples:
- I bought a PREsent for my friend.
- I will preSENT the plan tomorrow.
Mini practice (20 seconds):
Say these out loud (slow, then normal):
- I bought a PRESENT.
- I will present the plan tomorrow.
It’s much easier to make this natural when you practice it in real conversation. If you’d like, we can work on it together in a 25-minute lesson (supportive corrections, no pressure).
