What you should understandआपको क्या समझना है?
- Every long word has one strong part: say PHO-to-graph but pho-TO-gra-pher.
- In a sentence, press the words that carry meaning: 'I SENT the FILE this MORNING.'
- Small words like is, to, of and a stay short and quiet; that is what makes English sound natural.
- Moving the stress changes the point: 'I didn't say HE did it' is not 'I didn't SAY he did it.'
