Whether you're currently enrolled in a language program or not, take advantage of free online instruction from an experienced teacher. The material will introduce new content to some and serve as a review for others.

You are very intelligent & beautiful teacher I have ever seen during my life time. Specially student like me from Asia region appreciates your free lessons. I always burden with lack of English speaking ability in my office. I feel your lessons will help me to get rid of it. I must thanks to creator who created a creature like you to serve the society.
Thank you again.

We get an extra syllable by adding the plural ending to words that end in the sounds s, z, sh, ch, ks("x"), "j": glassES, sizeS, brushES, watchES, boxES, judgeS. If the word ends in a voiceless sound (other than those just listed), say /s/: cakes, jumps, etc. = /k/ and /p/ are voiceless so S is /s/. If the word ends in a voiced sound (other than those mentioned earlier), say /z/: becomes, falls, etc. = /m/ and /l/ are voiced sounds so S is /z/.
Please don't feel embarrassed. Asking questions is important. I can't always respond right away, but still you should post questions about my lessons if you have them. You'll likely be asking what others want to ask, too.
Yes, I'd say the time aspect is more important than the changes in pitch. Stressed syllables are generally longer, louder, and at a higher pitch, but think about how we can whisper a whole conversation. When we whisper we don't use our voice, but we still have rhythm. The length and strength of syllables stays the same whether we speak loudly or whisper.
