Word stress (WS) can be defined as the
singling

SO…Word stress (WS) can be defined as the singling out of one

out of one or more syllables in a
word,

which is accompanied by the
change of the force of utterance, pitch of
the voice, qualitative and quantitative
characteristics of the sound which is usually
a vowel.

Слайд 3 If we compare stressed and unstressed syllables in

If we compare stressed and unstressed syllables in the two contract,

the two contract, we may note that in the

stressed syllable:

the force of utterance is greater, which is connected with more energetic articulation;

the pitch of the voice is higher, which is connected with stronger tenseness of the vocal cords and the walls of the resonance chamber

the quantity of the vowel is greater, a vowel becomes longer;

the quality of the vowel !& in the stressed syllable is different from the quality of this vowel in the unstressed position, in why it is more narrow than.


Слайд 4 The phonetic manifestation of stress varies from language

The phonetic manifestation of stress varies from language to language. In

to language. In different languages one of the factors

constituting word stress is usually more significant than the others. According to the most salient feature the following types of word stress are distinguished in different languages:

dynamic or force stress if special prominence in a stressed syllable(syllables) is achieved mainly through the intensity of articulation;

musical or tonic stress if special prominence is achieved mainly through the change of pitch, or musical tone.

quantitative stress if special prominence is achieved through the changes in the quantity of the vowels, which are longer in the stressed syllables than in the unstressed ones.

qualitative stress if special prominence is achieved through the changes in the quality of the vowel under stress. Vowel reduction is often used as a manipulation of quality in unstressed syllables.


Слайд 5 Place and degrees of Word Stress
One of the

Place and degrees of Word Stress One of the ways of

ways of reinitiating the
prominence of syllables is
manipulating the degree

of stress.
There is controversy about degrees
of WS in English and their
terminology. Strictly speaking,
polysyllabic word has as many
degrees of stress as there are
syllables in it.
Designating strongest syllable by 1, the second strongest by 2, etc., we may represent the distribution Jesses in the following example:
examination indivisibility
igzemineSin indivizibiloti
32415 2536174

The majority of British phoneticians
(D. Jones, Kingdon, A. C. Gimson
among them) and Russian
phoneticians (V. A. Vassilyev,
Shakhbagova) consider that there
are three degrees of word-stress in
English:
primary -- the strongest
secondary -- the second strongest, partial, and
weak -- all the other degrees.

The syllables bearing either primary
or secondary stress are termed
stressed, while syllables with weak
stress are called, somewhat
inaccurately, unstressed.

word stress but term them:

Loud

Medial
Weak

Primary
Secondary
Tertiary
Weak


Слайд 7 Stress can be characterized as fixed and free.

Stress can be characterized as fixed and free. In languages with

In languages with fixed type of stress the place

of stress is always the same.

In English and Russian word-stress is free, that is it may fall any syllable in a word;

Stress in English and in Russian is not only free but also shifting. In both languages the place of stress may shift, which helps to differentiate different parts of speech, e.g. `insult--to in`sult, `import--to im`port.


Слайд 8 Examples of shifting:
preSENT (verb) – PRESent (noun)

reFER (verb)

Examples of shifting:preSENT (verb) – PRESent (noun)reFER (verb) – REFerence (noun)exTRACT

exTRACT (verb) – EXtract (noun)

OBject (noun) – obJECT (verb)


Слайд 9 Functions and tendencies of the English stress

Functions and tendencies of the English stress1. Word stress constitutes a word, it organizes

word, it organizes
the syllables of a word Into a language

unit
having a definite accentual structure, that is
a pattern of relationship among the syllables;

a word does not exist without the word stress.
Thus the word stress performs the constitutive 
function. Sound continuum becomes a phrase
when it is divided into units organized by word
stress into words.


Слайд 10 2. Word stress enables a person to identify

2. Word stress enables a person to identify a succession of

a
succession of syllables as a definite accentual
pattern

of a word. This function of word stress
as known as identificatory(or recognitive).

Correct accentuation helps the listener to make the process of communication easier, whereas the distortedaccentual pattern of words, misplaced word stresses prevent normal understanding.

Слайд 11 3. Word stress alone is capable of differentiating

3. Word stress alone is capable of differentiating the meaning of

the meaning of words or their forms, thus performing

its distinctive function. The accentual patterns of words or the degrees of word stress and their positions form oppositions, e.g. 'import — im'port, 'billow — below.

Recessive. The accentual structure of English

T e n d e n c I e s

words is liable to instability due to the different

origin of several layers in the Modern English word-stock. In Germanic languages the word stress originally fell on the initial syllable or the second syllable, the root syllable in the English words with prefixes. It is seen in the native English words having no prefix, e.g. mother, daughter, brother, swallow; in assimilated French borrowings, e.g. reason, colour, restaurant etc.


Rhythmical. The rhythm of alternating stressed and unstressed syllables gave birth to the rhythmical tendency in the present-day English which caused the appearance of the secondary stress in the multisyllabic French borrowings, e.g. revolution, organi'sation, assimilation, etc.


Retentive. Was traced in the instability of the accentual structure of English word stress: a derivative often retains the stress of the original or parent word, e.g. 'similar — as'simitate, recom'mend — recommen 'dation.


Слайд 13 Typology of accentual structures
The numerous variations of English

Typology of accentual structuresThe numerous variations of English word stress are

word stress are systematized in the typology of accentual

structure of English words worked out by G.P. Torsuyev. He classifies them according to the number of stressed syllables, their degree or character (the main and the secondary stress). The distribution of stressed syllables within the word accentual types forms accentual structures of words. Accentual types and accentual structures are closely connected with the morphological type of words, with the number of syllables, the semantic value of the root and the prefix of the word.


Слайд 14 The accentual types are:
1. ['___]. This accentual type

The accentual types are:1. ['___]. This accentual type marks both simple

marks both simple and compound words. The accentual structures

of this type may include two and more syllables,
e.g. 'fafher, 'possibly, 'mother-in-law, 'gas-pipe.

2. [ '_ '_ ]. The accentual type is commonly realized in compound words, most of them are with separable prefixes,
e.g. 'radio-'active, 're'write, 'diso'bey.

3. [ '_' _ '_ ] and
4. ['_' _ '_ '_]. The accentual types are met in initial compound abbreviations
e.g. 'U'S'A, 'U'S'S'R.

5. ['_ ,___]. The type is realized both in simple and compound words, very common among compound words,
e.g. 'hair-,dresser, 'substructure.

6. [, _'___]. The accentual type marks a great number of simple words and some compound words as well. In simple words the stresses fall onto:
e.g.1. the prefix and the root: maga'zine;
2. the root and the suffix: ,hospi'tality;
3. the prefix and the suffix: disorganization.


Слайд 15 The other five types are rare and found

The other five types are rare and found in small number

in small number of words.

The most widely spread among

the enumerated accentual types are supposed to be Type 1, Type 2, Type 5 and Type 6.

The variability of the word accentual structure is multiplied in
connected speech. The accentual structure of words may be
altered under the influence of rhythm, e.g. An 'unpolished 'stone
but: The 'stone was un'polished.

The tempo of speech may influence the accentual pattern of words.
With the quickening of the speed the carefulness of articulation is
diminished, the vowels are reduced or elided, the secondary stress
may be dropped, e.g. The 'whole organi'zation of the 'meeting
was 'faulty.
