The video tutorial introduces the concepts of intensifiers and mitigators in English grammar. Intensifiers are adverbs that increase the intensity of an adjective or another adverb, with examples like 'very' and 'extremely'. Mitigators, on the other hand, reduce the intensity, with examples such as 'fairly' and 'a bit'. The lesson provides examples and explanations for both, helping learners understand how to use them effectively in sentences.
