201 Exercise 1-33: Nationality Intonation Quiz
Nationalities When you are in a foreign country, the subject of nationalities naturally comes up a lot. It would be nice if there were a simple rule that said that all the words using nationalities are stressed on the first word. There isn't, of course. Take this preliminary quiz to see if you need to do this exercise. For simplicity's sake, we will stick with one nationality—American.

There is a little girl. Her name is Goldilocks. She is in a sunny forest. She sees a small house. She knocks on the door, but no one answers. She goes inside. In the large room, there are three chairs. Goldilocks sits on the biggest chair, but it is too high. She sits on the middle-sized one, but it is too low. She sits on the small chair and it is just right. On the table, there are three bowls. There is hot porridge in the bowls. She tries the first one, but it is too hot; the second one is too cold, and the third one is just right, so she eats it all. After that, she goes upstairs. She looks around. There are three beds, so she sits down. The biggest bed is too hard. The middle- sized bed is too soft. The little one is just right, so she lies down. Soon, she falls asleep. In the meantime, the family of three bears comes home — the Papa bear, the Mama bear, and the Baby bear. They look around.
They say, "Who's been sitting in our chairs and eating our porridge?" Then they run upstairs. They say, "Who's been sleeping in our beds?" Goldilocks wakes up. She is very scared. She runs away. Goldilocks never comes back.

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Grammar... But Were Afraid to Use English is a chronological language. We just love to know when something happened, and this is indicated by the range and depth of our verb tenses.
I had already seen it by the time she brought it in.
As you probably learned in your grammar studies, "the past perfect is an action in the past that occurred before a separate action in the past." Whew! Not all languages do this. For example, Japanese is fairly casual about when things happened, but being a hierarchical language, it is very important to know what relationship the two people involved had. A high-level person with a low-level one, two peers, a man and a woman, all these things show up in Japanese grammar. Grammatically speaking, English is democratic.
The confusing part is that in English the verb tenses are very important, but instead of putting them up on the peaks of a sentence, we throw them all deep down in the valleys! Therefore, two sentences with strong intonation—such as, "Dogs eat bones" and "The dogs'll've eaten the bones" sound amazingly similar. Why? Because it takes the same amount of time to say both sentences since they have the same number of stresses. The three original words and the rhythm stay the same in these sentences, but the meaning changes as you add more stressed words. Articles and verb tense changes are usually not stressed.
Now let's see how this works in the exercises that follow.

On the first of the numbered lines below, write a three-word sentence that you frequently use, such as "Computers organize information" or "Lawyers sign contracts" and put it through the 25 changes. This exercise will take you quite a bit of time and it will force you to rethink your
perceptions of word sounds as related to spelling. It helps to use a plural noun that ends in a [z] sound (boyz, dogz) rather than an [s] sound (hats, books). Also, your sentence will flow better if your verb begins with a vowel sound (earns, owes, offers). When you have finished filling in all the upper lines of this exercise with your new sentence, use the guidelines from Ex. 1-38 for the phonetic transcription. Remember, don't rely on spelling.

Next you use a combination of intonation and pronunciation to make the difference between can and can't. Reduce the positive can to [k 'n] and stress the verb. Make the negative can't ([kn(t)]) sound very short and stress both can't and the verb. This will contrast with the positive, emphasized can, which is doubled—and the verb is not stressed. If you have trouble with can't before a word that starts with a vowel, such as open, put in a very small [(d)]— The keys kn(d) open the locks. Repeat.
I can do it. (positive)
I can't do it. (negative )

Regaining Long-Lost Listening Skills
The trouble with starting accent training after you know a great deal of English is that you know a great deal about English. You have a lot of preconceptions and, unfortunately, misconceptions about the sound of English.
A Child Can Learn Any Language Every sound of every language is within every child. So, what happens with adults? People learn their native language and stop listening for the sounds that they never hear; then they lose the ability to hear those sounds. Later, when you study a foreign language, you learn a lot of spelling rules that take you still further away from the real sound of that language—in this case, English.
What we are going to do here is teach you to hear again. So many times, you've heard what a native speaker said, translated it into your own accent, and repeated it with your accent. Why? Because you "knew" how to say it.
