​​​​🔘 PRONUNCIATION

✅ In two-syllable words, there's a way that makes it easier for you to understand where the stress is on a word.
If the word is a noun or an adjective, the stress is mostly on the first syllable, e.g. people, leisure, water, active, happy, useful etc.. and if the word is a verb, the stress is mostly on the second syllable, e.g. create, prepare, amaze, increase, explain etc.
However, this rule doesn't cover all words there are many exceptions, e.g. hotel, machine, happen, borrow etc.

✅ Some words have the same expelling but stressed on the first syllable when they're used as nouns and stressed on the second syllable when they're used as verbs.
We will be working on some of those words today in our class.

🔘 2-syllable heteronyms

✅ Some words, called heteronyms, have a single spelling, but two different pronunciations. There are a number of 2-syllable words that are stressed on the first syllable when the word is being used as a noun or adjective, and stressed on the the second syllable when it is being used as a verb.

1️⃣ SUSpect n. susPECT v.
2️⃣ PROject n. proJECT v.
3️⃣ PREsent n. preSENT v.
4️⃣ REcord n. reCORD v.
5️⃣ EXport n. exPORT v.

Examples
1️⃣ He suspected the usual suspects.
2️⃣ The artist recorded a new record.
3️⃣ Can you project when the project will be complete?
4️⃣ For my birthday present, my father presented me with a brand new car.
5️⃣ The export that's been exported by my friend hasn't been arrived yet.
