I'm Trisha from RealFluencingOut.com and for today's vocabulary lesson, I want to talk about the words cornivore, herbivore, and omnivore, and some other related words. Living things are called either cornivores, herbivores, or omnivores. Based on what they eat. Eats animals, herbivores eat plants, and omnivores eat both. Towards cornivore, herbivore and omnivore are nouns, but the words carnivorous, herbivorous, and omnivorous are adjectives that describes those types of animals. There are also carnivorous plants. I have a few myself and I will show some of them to you later in this video. Pronouncing these words can be a little tricky in English. Herbivore and herbivorous are pronounced how they look, but in the word herb, the H is silent in the American English. The H is usually pronounced in other versions of English. And my understanding is that it could go either way in Canadian English. Also in the male name Herbivore, we do pronounce the H, and we also pronounce it in the shortened form of that name Herb, but not when we are talking about plants. The word herb comes from French and before that Latin, and both of those languages, the H is also silent. Now just for fun, I'll show you some of the carnivorous plants that I have. This is a better word. The weeds and stem are very sticky and bugs stick to it. Mine blooms about once a year with this really pretty pink flower. I also have a Venus fly trap and a picture plant. Carnivorous plants are kind of fun, but can be difficult to keep alive.
