Exercise 1-40:
Intonation 1 in Your Own Sentence
On the first of the numbered lines below, write a three-word sentence that you frequently use, such as "Computers organize information" or "Lawyers sign contracts" and put it through the 25 changes.
This exercise will take you quite a bit of time and it will force you to rethink your perceptions of word sounds as related to spelling.
It helps to use a plural 2 noun that ends in a [z] sound
(boyz, dogz)
rather than an [s] sound
(hats, books).
Also, your sentence will flow better if your verb begins with a vowel 3 sound
(earns, owes, offers).
When you have finished filling in all the upper lines of this exercise with your new sentence, use the guidelines from Ex. 1-38 for the phonetic 4 transcription.
Remember, don't rely on spelling.
