Which parts stand out, and how does the voice rise and fall?
stress
intonation
Makna
The way your voice makes parts stand out, rises and falls helps the listener understand your message. These sound choices can highlight a contrast, signal a question or show your attitude. Languages use different patterns, and some have no word stress. Tone concerns pitch patterns that distinguish words or grammatical forms, rather than the emphasis and melody of a whole message.
Cara mengenalinya
Listen for syllables or words that stand out and for rises and falls in the voice, then compare how changing these patterns changes the message.

Stress is not strongly contrastive, but intonation matters for questions, emphasis, and politeness.
