This unit is about pronunciation and phonology. An effective teacher considers the teaching of pronunciation an integral part of the course. Phonology consists of the following:
Intonation: Intonation is generally considered to be the variation in volume and pitch in a whole sentence.
Stress: Strong part in a sentence is the stressed word. Stressed words help us understand what speaker is trying to emphasize in a sentence and help us make a better sense of his intention.
Here two simple rules for stress; 1. One word has only one stress and can't have two stresses. There can be secondary stress in some words but a secondary stress is much smaller than the main stress. 2. We can only stress syllables.
Then this chapter tells about how the articulation works and which parts of the body play a role in it as well as manner of articulation. Then this chapter guides about how to teach pronunciation to students.
