Recognize overdrive words

We continue with the types of words according to their stressed syllable. In the previous videos I taught you the words high, flat or low and esdrújulas. Now it's the turn of the overdrive words.

In this video I will explain what they are the words overdrive. Overdrug words are those that have the stressed syllable before the third to last place, that is to say, that the syllable that is pronounced with greater intensity is the one before the penultimate (the fourth starting with the end). So to recognize the word overdrive we will have to look at this.

It will also help you to recognize the accentuation but you can see this in the video of accentuation of overdriven words.

Keep in mind that overdrive words are not simple words, they are compound words formed by gerunds or imperatives to which unstressed pronouns are added (me, te, se, la, los, las ...)

I have prepared a printable exercise with solutions with many words so that you can practice what you have learned in the video. Hope it helps you!
