TEACHER’S AND STUDENTS’ ACTIVITIES CONTENTS
*T explains what rhythm of speech is and that
different languages or families of languages have
different rhythms. For example, Vietnamese is a tonal
language with no system of word stress and every
word is stressed. On the other hand, the rhythm of
English is based on the contrast between stressed and
unstressed syllables or words in regular intervals. To
sound like a native speaker and be more fluent, Ss will
also need to learn the language rhythm.
- Sentence stress is the pattern of stressed and
unstressed words across a sentence. Normally this
emphasis is on words that carry important
information, although this can change significantly,
depending on the specific meaning the speaker wants
to communicate.
