Stress and intonation are closely associated with spoken English. While we observe stress at the word and sentence level, intonation is observed in connected speech with the rise or fall of the voice in speaking. Intonation performs two functions which are grammatical and attitudinal functions. This video explained the types of intonation or the intonation pattern we have in English language with copious examples. The lesson objective includes: - The concept of intonation - Functions of intonation - Types of intonation - Examples If you're yet to join the full English class or if you have English Language problems with any topic in your syllabus, ensure you join the English class by subscribing at this link; https://myschool.ng/store/view/english-video-lessons-for-jamb-waec-neco-and-nabteb-candidates-ss1-ss2-and-ss3-students

Stress is the emphasis placed on a syllable in a word or a word in a sentence. Stress can occur at the word and sentence level performing two major functions which are: distinguishing meaning/grammatical class and emphasizing words for special effect. This video also explains how to determine the syllable that receives stress in a given word. Concepts such as root word, stress shift, and compound words are explained to aid the understanding of stress in English. Lesson objective includes: - The meaning of stress in English - Word stress - Sentence stress - Contrastive/Emphatic stress - Function of stress If you're yet to join the full English class or if you have English Language problems with any topic in your syllabus, ensure you join the English class by subscribing at this link; https://myschool.ng/store/view/english-video-lessons-for-jamb-waec-neco-and-nabteb-candidates-ss1-ss2-and-ss3-students

Syllables are the smallest unit of language that can be pronounced. In the actual speech process, a speaker puts speech sounds together to form syllable. The vowel sounds are the most prominent part of a syllable structure, however, there is an exception thus, the concept of syllabic consonants emerges. This video explains syllabic consonants as consonant sounds which perform a special function. They combine with other consonant sounds to form a syllable without a vowel sound in between. Lesson objective includes: - What is a syllable - Syllable structure - Consonant cluster - Syllabic consonant - Syllabic division If you're yet to join the full English class or if you have English Language problems with any topic in your syllabus, ensure you join the English class by subscribing at this link; https://myschool.ng/store/view/english-video-lessons-for-jamb-waec-neco-and-nabteb-candidates-ss1-ss2-and-ss3-students

These are sounds produced with minimal or no obstruction of the air stream. In producing the approximant sounds, the articulators approach each other without causing friction and the air is able to flow almost completely free with little or no tension in the vocal tract. There are 4 approximant sounds in phonetics and each is explained with examples of the words that contain the sound. This video also explains the exceptions in the application of letters and sound correspondence. Lesson objective includes; - The meaning of approximant - The classification of approximants (liquids and semi-vowels) - How to articulate and describe each approximant sound - Letters of the English alphabet that can represent each sound  If you're yet to join the full English class or if you have English Language problems with any topic in your syllabus, ensure you join the English class by subscribing at this link; https://myschool.ng/store/view/english-video-lessons-for-jamb-waec-neco-and-nabteb-candidates-ss1-ss2-and-ss3-students

They are both produced with total obstruction of the air passage. However, affricate sounds are produced by the gradual release of the airstream from the oral cavity, while nasal sounds are produced from the nasal cavity. There are 2 affricates and 3 nasal sounds in phonetics and each is explained with examples of the words that contain each sound. This video also explains the exceptions and misconceptions to better understand the peculiarity of each sound. The lesson objective includes: - Meaning of affricate sounds and nasal sounds - How to articulate each of the sounds - How to describe each of the sounds - The letters of the English alphabet that can represent each sound - How to transcribe words If you're yet to join the full English class or if you have English Language problems with any topic in your syllabus, ensure you join the English class by subscribing at this link; https://myschool.ng/store/view/english-video-lessons-for-jamb-waec-neco-and-nabteb-candidates-ss1-ss2-and-ss3-students

There are 9 fricatives in phonetics and each is explained with examples of words that contain each sound. This video also explains the exceptions and misconceptions to better understand the peculiarity of each sound. The lesson objective includes: - How to articulate the fricative sounds - How to describe each sound - letters of the English alphabet that can possibly represent each sound - Examples If you're yet to join the full English class or if you have English Language problems with any topic in your syllabus, ensure you join the English class by subscribing at this link; https://myschool.ng/store/view/english-video-lessons-for-jamb-waec-neco-and-nabteb-candidates-ss1-ss2-and-ss3-students

Diphthongs simply mean two sounds, which means it involves a glide from one vowel quality to another. Therefore, a diphthong changes its sound quality in the articulation process. You will learn all about the 8 diphthongs in this lesson. Lesson objective includes: - Meaning of diphthong - The 8 diphthongs - Articulation of each of the 8 diphthongs - Letters of the English alphabet that represents each sound - Examples If you're yet to join the full English class or if you have English Language problems with any topic in your syllabus, ensure you join the English class by subscribing at this link; https://myschool.ng/store/view/english-video-lessons-for-jamb-waec-neco-and-nabteb-candidates-ss1-ss2-and-ss3-students
