This video is going to be really quick,
because I'm going to show you guys 27 homophone pairs in English.

I assure you—
I demand that you believe—

EXACTLY—
EXACTLY THE SAME!
Exactly the same, guys.
Ok, our first pair is "meet" and "meat." (After this point, subtitles aren't really necessary. You'll understand what's going on.)
Next!
