I think it’s true to say that … To say the basic fact … There’s no getting away from the fact … Foreign learners have difficulties in understanding conversational speech. We find repetition of affirmatives or negatives – at the beginning, and fillers and markers which act like social … By the end of the utterance the speaker has usually worked out what he’s going to say and the message is coherent. This is the part of the message that the student should concentrate on this part. Rhythm

Rhythm is said to be one of the most difficult areas in learning a foreign language. It is based on the regular interchange of stressed/ unstressed syllables. The rhythmic beat in the English language is the stressed syllable. The more organized the speech the more rhythmical it will be. Thus, prose read aloud by a fluent reader has a much more obvious rhythm than conversational speech (full of poses, false starts). It’s fair to say, if a fluent speaker speaks for a long time and the beat … boredom very rapidly sets in. And the speech sounds monotonous. If the speaker attempts to speak for some time without establishing rhythm with jerky stops/ starts, uneven pauses, the listeners will find it difficult to figure out what it is that he’s saying. The rhythmical beat provides a necessary structure for the utterance.
The linguists divide languages into two groups: 1) Syllable-timed 2) Stress-timed
The stressed syllables of the rhythmical units form picks of prominence. They tend to be pronounced at regular intervals. The regularity is provided by the strong beat.
Come and see me tomorrow. Read and retell text 5. These regular stress-timed pulses of speech seem to create the strict abrupt and spiky effect on English rhythm. Russian – more flexible and smooth. In order to bring the meaning of the utterance the stress syllables of the notional words are given more prominence and the unstressed (form words) are left very weak. So speech rhythm is traditionally defined as recurrence of stressed syllables at more or less equal intervals. Professor Антипова: «the basic rhythmic unit is a rhythmical group. It’s characterized by one stressed syllable + one/ two/ more unstressed, attached to it.” Unstressed have a tendency to clin to the preceding stressed. They are called enclitics.Or they have a tendency to the following – proclitics. Each sense group is pronounced at approximately the same period of time. Normally unstressed are pronounced more rapidly. A rhythmic group may comprise a whole phrase like “I can’t do it” or a single word: “unfortunately” or even a one-syllable word “yes”. There are some differences between the rhythmic patterns of speech realization, rhythmic organization of: 1) Disapproving monologue – is different form a familiar emotional conversation. 2) Informal spontaneous dialogues reveal a rich variety of rhythm organization and the change of rhythmic patterns. The beginning of the rhythmic unit is said on a higher level, louder, slower than the end of it.
They painted the table pale grey Come and see me tomorrow That’s the very man who had a felt hat on The phenomenon of rhythm is closely connected with phonetic nature of stress and sentence stress.
SENTENCE STRESS Sentence stress – a greater prominence of words which are made more or less prominent in an intonation group. Under the rhythm stress may undergo alternations. Some rules concerning words which are usually stressed (un) in this or that utterance. Stressed: · verbs · nouns · adjectives · numerals · interjections · demonstrative pronouns · indefinite (sb or sth) used as subject · indefinite negative (no one) · all, each, every, other, either, both · much, more, little, few · notional verbs · auxiliary verbs (negative contracted forms) · only, also, too, even, just Unstressed: · personal pronouns · reflexive pronouns · relative pronouns · possessive pronouns · indefinite (sb or sth) – used as object (I want to tell you sth) · auxiliary verbs (affirmative) · prepositions · conjunctions · articles · particles · modal verbs (with the exception of negative forms and in general questions) · weak forms of the words
The influence of rhythm in flow of speech is very important. Under it words which are normally pronounced with 2 stresses may lose one.
