II. LANGUAGE

   Pronunciation
   Stress in words with more than three syllables

1. Listen and repeat. Pay attention to the syllable with the primary stress.

   1. ,application                   5. ,popu'lation
   2. com,muni'cation           6. ,inde'pendent
   3. ,eco'nomic                    7. ,possi'bility
   4. ,expla'nation                 8. par,tici'pation

   Tips
   Some long words have a secondary stress which is much weaker than the primary stress.
   Example: ,eco'nomic
   In dictionaries, primary stress is marked with a raised vertical line and secondary stress with a lowered vertical line at the beginning of the syllable.

2. Listen and mark the primary stress in the words in bold. Then practise saying the sentences. 🎧
