Today's practice: first, decide which are the important words in these sentences. Then, say the sentences, lengthening the important words. Use the photo below and page 2 of the PDF to see which words to stretch.
Next, try some sentences of your own. Then, go back to Day 1 of the challenge and repeat your sentence using the intonation pattern (use the recording above to help you):
It’s the f i r s t d a y of the t h i r t y day a ccent c h a llenge, and I sound really g r e a t.
Record yourself again, and compare it to your day one recording. Can you hear the difference when you use the American Intonation? Which recording sounds better?
