🗣Study activity — Emphasis training 🗣

❗️Emphasizing different words can dramatically change the meaning of a sentence.

▪️▫️▪️▫️▪️▫️▪️▫️▪️

🗣 Read the following sentences out loud and emphasize the highlighted word to see how meaning can shift:

1️⃣ <I> didn't say you speech was boring. (It definitely wasn't me)
2️⃣ I <DIDN'T> say your speech was boring. (Emphatically, I did not)
3️⃣ I didn't <SAY> your speech was boring. (I never uttered this out loud)
4️⃣ I didn't say <YOUR> speech was boring. (If I said a speech was boring, it wasn't yours)
5️⃣ I didn't say your speech was <BORING>. (My critique of your speech did not include that it was boring)

💢 Practice changing where your emphasis falls in a sentence to shape meaning in dramatic or subtle ways.

For notes 📝:
🔅As you draft a speech or presentation, consider the meaning you would like the audience to understand from each sentence. Think about which words to emphasize to achieve that meaning.
🔅Vary you volume, pitch, and rhythm. This is not only helps you shape emphasis and meaning, it also keeps listeners more engaged by making sure your speech doesn't feel monotonous.
🔅As your practice your speech, make sure you aren't emphasizing too many words. Doing so will distract the audience and keep you from achieving your desired effect.
