In the following sentences underline the word that would be stressed most:
a)She dropped her bag.
b)It is the white car that i want.
c)The girl is mine.
d)I prefer to greet Mbotela.
e)It is time to go away.
Say them aloud. What seems natural to emphasize:
It is the white CAR I want. (as opposed to a white what, a coat, or a dog?)
It is the WHITE car I want. (not the blue one or the black one)
You get the idea. :)
