n Phonology
n Sentence stress
I have a test in Maths tomorrow.
n
11
In the above sentence, the words have, test, Maths and tomorrow
are stressed because they carry the important meaning of the sentence.
These are called content words. But, the words I, a, and in are not
stressed because they are not important for conveying the core meaning
of the sentence. These are structure words.
In a sentence content words are stressed and structure words
are unstressed.
e.g. If you like, I could go and get the things mom wants.
