stressed and unstressed syllables

what are the differences between stressed and unstressed syllables in English pronunciation

[Bailey-vwhd]

I could not understand stressed and unstressed syllables when the teacher taught it, and was failing my test
This video helped me understand, so thank you great explaining

[sashashaikh]

This was sooo helpful I’m doing iambic pentameter and Shakespearean sonnets and this was super difficult but I got it now 👍🏼

Literally we have poetry for literature lesson and we have to find the meter of the poem, and all the teacher said was the meter name depends on stressed and unstressed syllables. But I was like what is it and I started lagging behind the class. Now after watching this video I literally understand what it is, since you explained it so neatly, even with proper tone and pitch. Great job! This video really deserves more views and likes and teachers should use videos like this one to explain such things, instead of being so vague while explaining.

Is it just me who suddenly becomes relaxed when hearing him talk? I wanna lay down and take a nap now. lol

Thank you Teacher Dan so much! Your Banana example clarified it for me. I noticed the stressed syllable right away and the difference between the two was instantaneous for me.

[jessikostic]

Thank you. I understand stressed and unstressed words now. This helps me with my past simple understanding.

[ItzGalaxie]

Very helpful, thank you for this! I am teaching Shakespeare for the first time and definitely needed a refresher!

This is guiding in me in the right direction. I fully understand that syllables can be either stressed and unstressed. I’m just having trouble identifying if a syllable is stressed or unstressed. I hear I could look up the word in a dictionary and I could see if any syllables are stressed or unstressed

Thank you so much for this video!! I study English linguistics and this really helped me understand. Very grateful. Short and simple.

[bethvasich]

Thanks! This will help with a phonics lesson for my elementary kiddos. :). Loved how slowly and carefully you explained it!

[valeriavld]

You’re an excellent teacher. My teacher needed 2 classes of 1:30h to explain this and nobody was able to understand nothing. But I found your video and the whole class has learned this chapter. Thank you. 🥰

[CodPast]

Thank you for being the one person able to explain this in a way that makes sense

[whitneygranger]

I agree with other commenters. this was very helpful in my college American Literature class. our Professor shared your video with us.

[savage-tblo]

Great video! I'm learning russian and a I didn't even know what was "stressed" and "unstressed" syllable so this helps a lot

I like how you presented everything, you are doing what the word is, such as louder, longer, higher, shorter and quieter. I aspire to be like such presenter. Thank you very much.
