English is a stress-timed language, which means that some syllables in a word are stressed more than others. Stressing the wrong syllables can make it difficult for native speakers to understand you. For example, the word "record" can be stressed on either the first or second syllable, depending on whether you are using it as a verb or a noun. If you are using it as a verb, the stress is on the first syllable: "I'm going to record this song". If you are using it as a noun, the stress is on the second syllable: "I have a record collection". To correct this error, it is important to learn the correct stress patterns for words. You can find this information in dictionaries and online resources.
Linking words are words such as "and", "the", and "is". They are often not pronounced very strongly in English. However, it is important to pronounce them clearly so that native speakers can understand you. For example, the sentence "I went to the store and bought some milk" should be pronounced as "I went to the store 'n bought some milk". To correct this error, it is important to practice saying linking words in isolation. You can also try listening to native speakers and imitating their pronunciation.
Intonation is the rise and fall of your voice when you speak. It can be used to convey different emotions and meanings. For example, if you say the sentence "I'm going to the store" with a rising intonation, it will sound like a question. If you say it with a falling intonation, it will sound like a statement. To correct this error, it is important to pay attention to the intonation of native speakers. You can also try practicing different intonation patterns with different sentences.
