What is the accented syllable in surface

English

It refers to <u>the stressed syllable in a structure</u>. You should also consider that:

- a syllable is a pronunciation unit having one vowel sound. For example: dog, blue.  

-the stress is the emphasis you give to a syllable (making it longer and louder). For example in the word “banana” the second syllable is stressed.

In the following structures, you can see the accented syllable in bold and underlined:

-intonation is another aspect you should consider when stress is applied not only in isolated words but in a whole structure:  it is the rising or falling sound of the voice when speaking.

Here you have more examples: (the underlined part is the stressed one)

-I´m Japa<u>nese</u>.

-Are you <u>lon</u>ely in your <u>house</u>?

-I en<u>joy dan</u>cing!

Which speech topic would be most appropriate for a speech to a group of retirees?
Airida [17]
A speech topic that would be appropriate for a group of retirees would be, to me, to explain that once retired from one's main employer life and one's aspirations and drive do not end there. For example, it is still possible to earn money but less strenuously and rigid than punching a clock by, for example doing freelance work on the internet. Also, now that there is more time, one can pursue his/her real interests of say, writing a book, becoming an artist or supporting progressive politics, for example.

Which excerpt from The Odyssey best demonstrates the importance of perseverance in Greek society?
crimeas [40]

It was when Odysseus was trying to lift the spirits of his crew as he retells how they were able to sneak out of the Cyclops’ cave.  He added if they listen to his advice and orders they will make it back home no what manner of danger awaits them. Another is when he tries to assure himself that if he is able to take what the Gods throw at him, he will be able to finally make it back home.
