Answer:

Vowels misbehavin’: Reduction

Some Russian letters change their behavior depending on whether they’re in a stressed or an unstressed syllable. The vowels a, o, ye, and ya do this a lot. When stressed, they behave normally and are pronounced in the usual way, but when they’re in an unstressed position, they go through a process called reduction. This deviation in the vowels’ behavior is a very important linguistic phenomenon that deserves your special attention. Not knowing it is like a double-edged sword: not only does it take other people longer to understand you (they simply won’t recognize the words you’re saying), but you also may find it hard to recognize the words you think you already know (but unfortunately store in your own memory with the wrong stress).

Ibihay ang pagkakaiba at pagkakatulad ng telenobela at teleserye​
melomori [17]

Answer:

Ang isang soap opera ay isang serye sa radyo o telebisyon na nakikipag-usap lalo na sa mga pang-domestic na sitwasyon at madalas na nailalarawan sa pamamagitan ng melodrama, ensemble cast at sentimentality. Ang mga teleserye ay nagbabahagi ng ilang mga katangian at may magkatulad na pinagmulan ng mga klasikong soap opera at telenovelas, ngunit ang teleserye ay umusbong sa isang genre na may kanya-kanyang natatanging katangian, na madalas na gumaganap bilang isang realistang sosyalista na repleksyon ng reyalidad ng Pilipino.
