► TRANSCRIPTION
What’s the difference between hurricane and Harry Kane? And what’s the difference between the Super Bowl and a super bowl? Well, the answer is word stress, and it’s a really important aspect of pronunciation. And today I’m going to teach you 8 simple word stress rules so that you can speak English more clearly and accurately. Let’s go.
So before we start, there is a simple way for you to know where the stressed syllable is in every word in English, and that is by just learning some basic phonetics. If you look in the dictionary and see the phonetic transcription for a word, there is a little apostrophe type thing just before the stressed syllable in every word. And every word in English has just one stressed syllable. So look at these words and also listen to hear how I stress the stressed syllable in these words. Photograph, photograph. Here the stressed syllable is the first syllable, pho- photograph. Photography, photography. See the little apostrophe before the second syllable? Photography. And photographic, photographic. Here we stress the third syllable, photographic, and you have the little ’ before that in the phonetic transcription. So learn some phonetics, it will make your life easier, I promise.
Okay, so let’s have a look now at these 8 simple rules. Every rule has exceptions in English, so maybe we should call them guidelines, whatever you want to call them. We have 8 simple ways for you to speak more clearly using correct word stress in English. So let’s go.
Okay, the first rule is related to words that have 2 syllables. So look at these nouns that have 2 syllables and tell me where the stress is. Campus, county, maker, picture, water, entry. That’s right. With 2 syllable nouns, the stress goes on the first syllable. Now, listen to these adjectives. Happy, pretty, royal, mobile, local. Again, with nouns and adjectives that have 2 syllables, we stress the first syllable. And don’t worry, I’ve put all these examples and a summary of all today’s rules in a free worksheet for you. You can download that PDF and get all of these examples and rules for your reference just for you. There’s a link up there and there’s a link in the description too.
Okay, let’s have a look at some more words with 2 syllables. Okay, rule 2 also relates to words that have 2 syllables, but in this case, we’re looking at verbs. So listen to these verbs and tell me where the stress is. Repeat, collect, forgive, allow, prefer, impose. That’s right. With verbs that have 2 syllables, the stress is on the second syllable. And yes, there are exceptions. Feel free to write any exceptions in the comments, but generally, this rule is true.
Now, there are some situations where we have one word that can be a verb and a noun. So what do we do in those situations? Well, that’s rule number 3.
