B2 Intonation (poem of Bishop Hatto)
Manage episode 331846899 series 2951241
I'm still on the theme of intonation and how important it is to place more emphasis or stress on the meaning words. That is: the nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs and negative words especially, while the words which carry less meaning will receive less stress. Words like: prepositions, articles, the verb 'to be' and auxiliary verbs. But today I'm going to demonstrate this rhythm peculiar to English by reading a poem to you. Come to www.practisingenglish.com podcast 126 to listen to and read the poem.
