Pronunciation and Speaking WELCOME!!! Instructor: Melissa Smith Class Time: Tuesday 3-6 pm

Our goals today:  Syllable review and Longer word level stress  Work on these vowels: / ʌ /, / ə /  Work on these consonants: / ʒ /, /t ʃ /, /d ʒ /  First half: vowels and Longer word level stress  Second half: / ʒ /, /t ʃ /, /d ʒ / and practice

Word Stress Adult /ə. ˈ d ʌ lt/ or / ˈ æ ˌ.d ʌ lt/ Automatic / ˌɑː.tə ˈ mæ.t ɪ k/ Almost / ˈɑː l.mo w st/ Present (verb v noun) /prə. ˈ z ɛ nt/ vs. / ˈ pr ɛ.zənt/ Effort / ˈɛ.f ɚ t/ Complex /k ɑ m. ˈ pl ɛ ks/ Brit / ˈ k ɒ m ˌ pl ɛ ks/

Word Level Stress What are the three thing you hear that help indicate stress? 1. Longer 2. Louder 3. Higher

Rules and Practice (review) 90% of 2-syllable English nouns have first syllable stress “Cell phone” *Put the stress on the _____ syllable/noun in one-word and two-word compound nouns. What about 2-syllable compound adverbs of location? “Upstairs” *Put the stress on the _____ syllable in compound adverbs. What about phrases with an adjective + noun? “Green house” vs. “Greenhouse” *Stress is on _____ syllables in “adjective + noun” phrases. What about verbs? “Present” (noun) vs. “Present” (verb) *Put the stress on the_____ syllable in two-syllable verbs that are also used as nouns.

Let’s Practice! No Fridays: To encourage face to face communication, some offices have a “no Fridays” policy. On Fridays, all messages are delivered in person. Directions: Work in small groups. Choose one speaker Speaker- read the to yourself, you can make notes, then turn it over. Tell your classmates what was in the . Pay attention to syllables and word stress! Listeners: Take notes on the important information. If you don’t understand, ask questions Compare your notes with the original How did you do?

Syllables For a lot of languages: A syllable = Consonant + Vowel English is a little different. We can have CV, CVC, CCVC, CCCV, CCCVC, CCCVCC! Also, just because you see a vowel, doesn’t mean you should add a syllable: Passage Smile Dance ***Listen for a vowel sound.

Vowels!!

The Vowels of North American English IPAExp.IPAExp.IPAExp. /i/green /ɛr//ɛr/ purple/u/blue /I/pink /ʊ//ʊ/ soot /e/gray /ʌ//ʌ/ rust/o/gold /ɛ//ɛ/ redred/ə//ə/aqua* /ɔ//ɔ/ mauve /æ/black /ɑ//ɑ/ aqua /a i / /ɔi//ɔi/ /a u /brown

Word Stress and Vowel Clarity Clear Vowels Schwa: The contrast Cross it off Practice Stressed, Unstressed, Reduced

Stress in longer words Last week, we used parts of speech to predict word stress. Today, we are going to look at suffixes or word endings as predictors. Why are they different? Let’s watch the short history of the English Language. Well Said, Pg. 69 -ment, -able, -er = affect stress? Yes or No? -ic, -ity, -ion = affect stress? Yes or No? -ee = affect stress? Yes or No?

Stress in longer words We have to think about reduction as well as stress. Listening Activity 2 Write the following words down: Communication Biological Majority Absentee

Reduced syllables 1. Where is the stressed syllable? Underline it. 2. Some syllables sound much softer than the others. Draw a line through those syllables. Co-mmu-ni-CA-tion /kə. ˌ myu ː.nə. ˈ ke y. ʃ ən/ Bi-o-LO-gi-cal / ˌ ba y. ə. ˈ l ɑː. ʤɪ. kəl/ Ma-JO-ri-ty /mə. ˈʤ o. rə. ti/ Ab-sen-TEE / ˌ æb. sən. ˈ ti ː /

Stress in longer words Rules 6-1, What’s the stress pattern? Stress the syllable immediately before these suffixes that begin with the letter i. 6-2, What’s the stress pattern? Stress the syllable immediately before these suffixes. 6-3, What’s the stress pattern? Stress falls on these suffixes – eer, -ee, -ese, -ette, -esque, -ique 6-4, What’s the stress pattern? Stress falls two syllables before the –ate suffix in North American English
