About this course

Pronunciation involves the shape of a sentence as well as individual sounds. This Georgia Tech lesson concentrates on word stress and intonation, two features that influence how a listener follows spoken English.

It is a compact, standalone lesson from the larger Speak English Professionally course. The published objective is producing appropriate stress and intonation, not covering every sound or accent in English.

WikiFree recommends it for learners who can form sentences but want their speaking to be easier to understand. It can sit alongside vocabulary study without requiring you to restart a complete language programme.

Listen for which part of a word or sentence carries emphasis before focusing on speed. Clearer emphasis can be a more useful learning target than simply speaking faster. The larger parent course is not included in this free lesson listing.
