Speak with an American Accent: Syllable Stress

Ovient English (Inside the Plug and Play Tech Center) (map)

Selected By: Ovient

How do you pronounce developer? Is it DEveloper, deVELoper, or develOper?

Join our Meetup to discover (or rediscover) syllable stress! You will learn some general rules that will help you choose which syllable gets the primary stress in a word. You'll also practice some techniques that will help you elongate your syllables so that you sound more "native."

We hope you can join us!
