Sometimes, I am crippled and eclipsed by the self-doubt that perhaps I am as obtuse as a tortoise's gait but when I watch your candid videos in which you put forth herculean efforts and overzealous energy then it just makes me little reckless and jittery and inspires me to be a tenacious and adamant mason who is just going to build the house of English no matter what and this time I am not being facetious and I hope you keep injecting us with the vaccines of your healing smile and candid teaching.... ❤❤❤
1. Overzealous During the concert, some overzealous fans ran onto the stage. 2. Tenacious Even though he’s short, he always gives a tenacious effort. 3. Candid This candid photo showed some of the poor living conditions 4. Facetious 5. Obtuse My uncle can be so obtuse, he won’t listen to anyone 6. Boorish His boorish behavior caused me to hang up on him. 7. Jittery The boy was so jittery, he couldn’t sit in one place. 8. Capricious Capricious weather 9. Gullible I couldn’t believe I had fallen for this scam, I was so gullible. 10. Adamant The doctor was adamant, she needed to have surgery immediately. 11. Feckless The coach’s feckless leadership led the team to its worst record in school history.

I know all those adjectives. I was hoping you'd give examples of attributive and predicate adjectives, how they are used in sentences. These are new terms to me.
Undeniably learning new words from you is utterly a huge help . Especially that I am not really a person with wide range vocabularies . However I have learned myriad of nascent words from you. At first it's quite challenging but thru practicing it religiously there is no impossible that I obtain my goals to speak innovative words with confidence.....I am filled with exhilaration and I feel upbeat because of the profound confidence I gain thru your esoteric knowledge you have been sharing to us
Am an overzealous fan of you by heart!

In many British dialects the 't' in "obtuse" is pronounced the same as in "Tuesday", which sounds the same as "choose day".

Yes, British English is absolutely from U.S. In the United States, most natives are taught multiple ways to pronounce the letter T. Sometimes T sounds like a D; sometimes it is not pronounced at all. It is claimed by educated speakers of English in the U.S. speech is smoothed out when we apply the multiple ways to pronounce T.
