Today I've decided to discover what is the "sentence stress" !
Why a such rotating five ? Because 3 months ago, I haven't any idea about what was this thing... but no matter, there's still time to learn !
www.englishclub.com is a website explaining how to get this sentence stress, I sum up what's interesting :
- Most sentences have two types of word:
- content words : They are the key words of a sentence that carry the meaning.
- main verbs : SELL, GIVE, EMPLOY
- nouns : CAR, MUSIC, MARY
- adjectives : RED, BIG, INTERESTING
- adverbs : QUICKLY, LOUDLY, NEVER
- negative auxiliaries : DON'T, AREN'T, CAN'T
- structure words : they are not very important words. They are small, simple words that make the sentence correct grammatically.
- pronouns : he, we, they
- prepositions : on, at, into
- articles : a, an, the
- conjunctions : and, but, because
- auxiliary verbs : do, be, have, can, must
- content words : They are the key words of a sentence that carry the meaning.
- The time between each stressed word is the same.
I am a proFESsional phoTOgrapher whose MAIN INterest is to TAKE SPEcial, BLACK and WHITE PHOtographs that exHIBit ABstract MEANings in their photoGRAPHic STRUCture.
Well, it seems to be difficult enough... But now, I can't said I've never heard about this...
