Описание к видео IPA Diacritics for Accents part 1: Suprasegmentals

Jim Johnson of AccentHelp.com explains Suprasegmentals in the IPA, in answer to a question a follower posted about what Diacritics are most helpful in describing accents. (Yes, Suprasegmentals are NOT Diacritics, but they are similar enough that it's helpful to explain them to start out.) The IPA is the International Phonetic Alphabet, symbols that represent various sounds, such as vowels and consonants, and Diacritics are small "tweaks" to those symbols. Suprasegmentals tend to give clarity to a broader swath of an IPA transcription, such as where stress occurs.
