Introduction to American English Prosody: sentence stress, reduction, etc...

Most English learners tend to focus on vocabulary and grammar stuff while trying to acquire English fluency. However, prosody is one aspect of this language that people tend to ignore or sometimes don’t even know that it exists. Quite a few people are familiar with this term and understand how to apply it in their speech to sound more natural, smooth, and fluent. So, I’d like to introduce this topic to my people so that you all can have more knowledge about it, practice and become fluent English speakers. Morgan, an expert in this field, explained the essential components of prosody in this video. Hope you enjoy it!
