English words easily confused - desert (as a noun) vs. dessert

English words easily confused: desert and dessert. The video features two words that might cause some problems for learners of English, especially Hungarian learners of English. It is likely that those learners of English who got to know the words through the written form first will have a certain level of difficulty when it comes to pronouncing them as the two words are only different in one consonant letter. In pronunciation, however, there are three differences that make the two words sound different. In my experience, there are a lot of learners who mix them up, and they mean one English word when they say the other. This short video might give you a little help in pronouncing the words better and being more confident when using them.
