Sentence Stress in English pronunciation - Nagisa Kanakubo

 I understood the difference between content words and grammar word. The former has necessary meaning and is stressed. On the other hand, the latter is grammatically important and is unstressed. Also, the contrast between them is significant.

    I also learned content words and grammar words. The video taught me how to think about which words to emphasize and which not.
