Lesson 32. Where's My Checklist?

Stress in Compound Words
Lesson 32; Part A
We can often put two words together to make a compound, e.g. class +room -> classroom. We write some compounds as one word, some as twowords, and some with a hyphen (-). class + room -> classroom car + park -> car park second + hand -> second-hand | |
The stress is normally on the first part of the compound. Listen and repeat.
