Ever since I was really young, I've always been fascinated with states and their capitals, and I had them all memorized by age 5. At age 22, I've currently been to 29 states and 10 state capitals. I'm hoping to visit more real soon. :) Edit: I have now been to all 50 states, and 14 capitals :)
Bigger cities tend to be well-known, and it's often an accident of geography and/or history that they grow as large as they do. Capitals, on the other hand, are quite often (but not always) centrally located in their state, which may or may not lead to their growth ~
That's the "fun" thing about English - sometimes things are not what they seem ;) ! Many ESL people pronounce Arkansas like "Kansas" with an "Ar" in front of it - but nope, we can't do it that way; it'd be too easy :) Always something to keep you on your toes!
Well, \ˈbȯi-sē\ might well be a regional pronunciation, but \ˈbȯi-zē\ is also a standard pronunciation. As for Honolulu, the vowel in the second syllable is actually a schwa since that is an unstressed syllable. And "o" has the "ah" sound when it is a short vowel: \ˌhä-nə-ˈlü-(ˌ)lü\ or \hō-nə-ˈlü-(ˌ)lü\. So, the pronunciations I've used in this video are not incorrect - they are standard ;)
I am a Brit I found this useful because I like memory tests but I would have liked a pause between the capital and the state to test my own knowledge. Using it this way, I would have preferred the name of the state first. This is not a criticism because the video was intended for pronunciation purposes but I am still searching for a video that meets my requirements. Can anyone help?
Cheers from the US 🇺🇸 - You could look at a blank map of all 50 states and drag your finger from state to state, quizzing yourself - you could download this video, edit it in Adobe Premiere, or Final Cut Pro to your liking - you could download an app that helps you learn each state and it’s respective capital - you could create or find a Quizlet - you could hire a tutor - you could try to memorize this video or remake this video - you could practice teaching each state & capital to a pet or stuffed animal (helps with memorization) Hope this helps!
I got this on loop while I am sleeping so I can memorize it so even if I forget my conciounsness or however you spell it will remind me of it while I'm sleeping me and that thing work well together

Verse 2: Trenton's in New Jersey north of Jefferson Missouri, You've got Richmond in Virginia, South Dakota has Pierre, Harrisburg's in Pennsylvania and Augusta's up in Maine, And here is Providence Rhode Island next to Dover Delaware. Concord New Hampshire, just a quick jaunt, To Mont-pe-lier, which is up in Vermont, Hartford's in Connecticut, so pretty in the fall, And Kansas has Topeka, Minnesota has St. Paul. Verse 3: Juneau's in Alaska and there's Lincoln in Nebraska And it's Raleigh out in North Carolina, and then, There's Madison Wisconsin and Olympia in Washington, Phoenix Arizona and Lansing Michigan.

Verse 4: Cheyenne is in Wyoming and perhaps you make your home in Salt Lake City out in Utah, where the buffalo roam, Atlanta's down in Georgia and there's Bismark North Dakota, And you can live in Frankfurt in your old Kentucky home. Salem in Oregon, from there we join, Little Rock in Arkansas, Iowa's got Des Moines, Sacramento California, Oklahoma and its city, Charleston West Virginia and Nevada's Carson City! That's all the capitals there are!
sempre achava que Nova York,Los Angeles,Houston,Philadelphia e Miami era capitais de seus estados por serem as maiores cidades e mas famosas mundo afora!
You would have to read the history of each state to find out why they put the capital where they did. In most cases, the capital is not the largest and/or most important city in the state. It's the same with Washington, DC, the capital of the US. It's not anywhere near the largest city, and it's not an important city--except that it's the capital. It's a city that was planned specifically to be the capital in the late 1700s, plotted on paper and then built where it is planned city that was put where it is as the result of a deal among some of the Founders.
This helps me out very much. You should post more videos because they will introduce people to learn more about states and the capital of the states.When I need help I will I will always come to your CZcams channel Clubenglish. Why did you say that your CZcams channel is boring . Your CZcams channel is helpful and learnable. And just to tell you boring is not the eye of beholder!
Hi, I made this video when I was still pretty new to the whole process of making videos - since then, I've had various ideas of how I would do it differently, were I to remake it. I might do that someday, but I have no plans right now. Thanks for the suggestion! :)

I'm not saying this video is bad but for a classroom in a school or even at home kids need music in there lives but you go and make all the videos you want. I supporte you 100%
Hi, and thanks for stopping by. I made this video when I was still relatively new to making videos and had a lot to learn (still do have much to learn :) ) so I'm sure there's room for improvement! If I were to remake it, I'd probably do some things differently. But as far as adding music goes, one has to be careful, I think, that the music not overwhelm or detract from the video's message. Music should complement the video's purpose. Thanks for watching!
Also, with music (especially) one has to be careful about copyright. I could write my own song to provide a mnemonic for remembering the states and their capitals, but I don't have the equipment, etc. for making a decent recording to use with the video.

Good video! I'm wondering why most capitals are less known than those non-capital big cities in each state.
Bigger cities tend to be well-known, and it's often an accident of geography and/or history that they grow as large as they do. Capitals, on the other hand, are quite often (but not always) centrally located in their state, which may or may not lead to their growth ~
clubenglish manhattan should of been the capital of NY
Exactly my thought xD
If you think it's "boring," feel free to make your own "exciting" video - "boring" is in the eye of the beholder ;)
No need of spreading more hate. Great vid though.
Who's spreading hate?
Glad you liked the vid :)
clubenglish No, it's not boring at all. It really helps me a lot to concentrate and hear clearly the right pronunciations.
Thank you - I'm so glad you appreciate it! You represent the type of viewer I made this video for ;)
Thanks for helping me study! :D
Finally a video without a dumb song! Good study material!
For someone that grew up outside the us never hearing these, it's useful to not make a fool of myself pronouncing Arkansas wrong :P

- You could look at a blank map of all 50 states and drag your finger from state to state, quizzing yourself
- you could download this video, edit it in Adobe Premiere, or Final Cut Pro to your liking
- you could download an app that helps you learn each state and it’s respective capital
- you could create or find a Quizlet
- you could hire a tutor
- you could try to memorize this video or remake this video
- you could practice teaching each state & capital to a pet or stuffed animal (helps with memorization)
Hope this helps!

As an Aussie I dont get why most Capitals are small and have have a big city like near it they can use it’s just confusing

great video but u could have shown the capital and state name first then pronounce so that we can pronounce with you.

Thought you would explain how each state got its capital city (or why that city was made the capital)
If I had the time, that might make for an interesting project :)
Precisely
You have the time or are you busy....im back
Thanks, just for I was after.
Cool ;)
Nope, it's been the capital of Missouri since 1821 ;)
u missed Virginia
and no one cares

Boise was pronounced incorrectly, though I’m not surprised; the ‘s’ in Boise actually sounds like an ‘s’, not a z. Sorry.
Well, she pronounced Honolulu wrong. She said it as Han-a-lulu but it is supposed to be Ho-no-lulu with an o sound and not ah.
Very helpful, Thanks!
You're welcome! ;)
by the way do you have the complete 50 states and their capital pronunciation? XD
Do you mean as a written list?
no, i mean like this one but complete 50 city and states ^_^
This is the only video on geography I have. Maybe I could do some others ;)

Yo in the map they drew theres no japan and new zeland and cuba and haiti and dominican rupublic
50 states & capitals is enough ;) but that's all that I wanted to focus on for this video :)
@@Summiteslclubenglish ok mb
Thanks, its informative & simple.
very useful video
Thanks for watching ~ I'm glad you found it helpful!
Shown name first, than speak, that will be more meaningful
There's a few French and Spanish sounding names in there, maybe Americans are pronouncing them wrong too lol, good video.
Whats up nerds
surprised to know the cap of cali isnt LA
Why would it be la
Los Angeles is the largest city in California, but you'll find that often the largest city in a state is not the capital.

Thus "Des Moines" read as "De Moin" or "De Moi".? I can't hear it rightly.
"De Moin" - we picked up that spelling and pronunciation from the French, who were the early explorers in that area.
thanks.. it helped me a lot.
You're welcome!
better
This makes me sad
Montpelier??????seriously? its a French word
American pronunciation of a place name. [shrug] If you think that's weird, there's a town in Ohio named Versailles. It is pronounced "Ver-sales."
And you say New Orleans although Orleans should be said like "Orlean" with weak n at the end
The correct pronunciation of New Orleans by people who live there is more like Nawlinz.
COOL
Is that really the way they pronounce Montpelier and Pierre?
Well, it's how I learned them in school ;) but maybe people living there pronounce it differently ~
