  2. When we accent a word or part of a word, we say that part a little bit louder, hold the sound out a little bit longer, and our mouths even open a little wider. • The way we accent or put stress on a word or part of a word can change the meaning! Inflection = Accent or Stress

  3. MOST of the time, in a 2 syllable word, NOUNS are accented on the 1st syllable…and VERBS are accented on the 2nd syllable. • We will divide the syllables with a slash mark (/). • We will show the accent (voice inflection) by writing the accented syllable in all CAPITAL letters. Noun or Verb?

  4. NOUN * COM/bat The soldier was in combat in the war. * PRO/duce We bought the produce at the farmer’s market. VERB * Com/BAT We will combat the ant problem by using spraying every week. * pro/DUCE The factory will produce more cars this year.

  5. NOUN *EX/cuse That is not a good excuse. * REC/ord We used to play a record, not an iPod! VERB *ex/CUSE You may excuse yourself and leave quietly. * re/CORD • Will you record the TV show, so we can watch it later?
