become lawyers we also refer to the
study of those things as law for example

let's get started first is insignificant
insignificant
[Music]
so the word insignificant means
something that is not important it's not
special if we break this word down we
have the prefix in which means not or no
and the word significant which means
something that is important or something
that we need to care about or pay
attention to a lot so together this
means not significant or not important
or not something that we need to care or
think about a lot insignificant
insignificant amount
in
significant amount
famous
so something that is famous is something
or someone that is very very well known
so this is usually someone like a
celebrity like an actor or an actress
maybe they're a musician they're part of
a band perhaps they're an artist they
create paintings or maybe they write
something that's very very well known so
someone who is famous is known by many
different people and some thing that is
famous is also known by many different
people for example famous actor
famous actor
freeze
sneeze sneeze
so sneeze is a verb and a noun to sneeze
the verb means that feeling that you
have in your nose when your body needs
to move air out of it really quickly we
have that chew right that's called the
noun form sneeze and as a verb we say to
sneeze so that means to do that action
for example the woman is sneezing
the woman is sneezing
casual
casual so casual is the opposite of
formal casual means something that is
kind of relaxed something that is laid
back something that's not super polite
so when we have everyday conversations
with our friends we usually use casual
language or we dress in casual clothes
or we have kind of a casual feeling for
example casual clothing
casual clothing
guitar
this word has kind of an interesting
spelling it starts with GUI but we
pronounce this as git so a guitar is a
musical instrument we play it like this
usually and this is something that is
played all over the world there are lots
and lots of talented people who play
guitar and they are called guitarists
for example some of them play a six
string guitar
six string guitar
next is breathe breathe breathe
okay this word is a verb it means to
take air into your body and to put air
out of your body this process of getting
air into your body and moving it out is
called breathing make sure you're
cautious of the spelling of this to
breathe this word has an e at the end
yeah we also have a noun that looks very
similar and is related to this process
that's called breath but there's no e at
the end so be careful when you use this
as a verb make sure you don't forget
that e for example breathe deeply
breathe deeply
spit so this is kind of a gross
vocabulary word but it's important to
know this is a noun and a verb so as a
verb to spit means to force whatever is
in your mouth out of your mouth so if
you're eating something for example and
you spit it out that means you force it
out of your mouth if you have nothing in
your mouth just the water the liquid in
your mouth and you put that out of your
mouth that's called spitting so to spit
means to force something out of your
mouth as a noun spit means just the
liquid inside your mouth so an example
no spitting
dentist
so the dentist is the tooth doctor so
when you need to have your teeth cleaned
when you need to talk to a doctor about
something happening in your mouth with
your teeth with your gums these kinds of
things you visit a dentist it's
important to see a dentist regularly so
for example see a dentist
see a dentist
cavity
cavity so a cavity usually refers to a
hole in your tooth so this is a very
common type of tooth damage when you
have a cavity you need to go and see a
dentist to get it repaired for example
deep cavity
asthma
so this word has very interesting
spelling there's a th in the middle but
we don't say asthma we say asthma so
kind of ignore that but try to remember
it when you're spelling this word so
asthma is a very very common type of
illness that affects the lungs so
someone who has asthma may have trouble
breathing normally or maybe they are
irritated their lungs get irritated by
some kind of allergic reaction or maybe
they have to take some kind of
medication to help them to breathe
regularly so different people have
different kinds of asthma but this is a
very common illness that affects the
lungs so here's an example expression
asthma inhaler
