I would say a more accurate equivalent in English is the word "present" (PRE-sent) and the word "present" (pre-SENT). The first means a gift, the second means to give something. I present a present. I give a gift.
No online lessons have ever taught me about pitch accent so this was very insightful, thanks. I feel like I have a lot of basics to cover.

I notice every time he says that the pitch is rising, the vowel is always cut short at the end. Is this always the case?

Ok, I understand the concept
And all of those, except for the car washing/tank one
Literally cannot tell the difference, and consistently guessed the opposite of the correct answer
Good thing I should really never have a need to talk about either car washing or tanks!
Anyways, I understand the name choice of the main character in Needy Girl Overdose now lmao

I can't always here the difference? Is there a way to HEAR the difference regularly??!!
