  • what's going on people, i would like to get a companion to practice my english

  • thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanx

  • C'est génial ! xD

  • OK I decided to do it!

  • im too having problem when stringing a long sentence. i find myself running out of air trying to pronouce every syllable, and my rhytm is like a train off track. it doesnt flow. how can i apply the 3 strong point techniques to long sentence?

  • @saigondj

    It's okay to speak slowly, but don't pause after each word. By the way, there are not always three strong points. A longer sentence can have many stress points, depending on how many "content words" (nouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives) there are. We can also change the stress according to our own feeling, but that's a lesson for another video!

  • @teacherjoedeveto my vocab is sufficient, my grammar is good, my fuency level is good too, my accent is very understandable, it's just my rythm for long and complex sentences is out of wack. I'm ok with short sentences tho.

    for long and complex sentences, i have to pause to search and form words, this leads to disruption in my rythm (whoa...i think i've just dianosed the problem right in this reply)

  • thank you so much. i'm really struggling. hehe "just do it!"

  • @saigondj

    I'm now working on a new website called "Learning to Learn English". It gives a lot of advice and I will add lots of practice exercises in the future, time permitting. Keep on trying!

    *rhythm*

    It's a funny word

  • Love itt!!

  • this is the best thing I've ever heard about English (I'm trying to use the tenses even I don't know whether it's correct or not loool)

    you are really amazing

    but don't tell me that all the sentences in English has the same three strong points :D

    how could I know about the other sentences and words?

    I wish I have a teacher like you :)

  • Your first sentence is correct: "the best thing I've ever heard"!

    Of course not all English sentences have the same rhythm. A very general rule is to stress nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs, but rarely stress shorter "function" words such as prepositions, conjunctions and articles. We have a lot of choices, however, so you need to listen to a lot of English to get used to the up and down rhythm. The sentences here are just a start!

  • waw,, you make the english so much fun..

    thanks a lot teacher..

  • this is awesome idea to use rhythms. This is by far the best EA tutorial I have seen on YOUTUBE, Thank you Joe
