To pronounce English words correctly and clearly you have to understand Word Stress (Syllable Stress), or how some syllables stand out and receive more emphasis than others. In Part 3 of this American accent training series on Word Stress we dive in to how to know WHICH syllable is stressed in English words.
In American English, all syllables are not created equal. In any word with more than one syllable, there will be one syllable that receives special attention. Understanding and using correct words stress is essential for improving your American English pronunciation, or your American accent.
Being able to identify and pronounce stressed syllables will improve the natural flow and clarity of your spoken English by leaps and bounds! This is arguably the most important concept in American English pronunciation if your goal is to sound more clear and natural in your English.
So, I've broken this lesson into three parts:
