Abstract
Word stress and prominence are essential components of spoken English, influencing how meaning is created, interpreted, and transmitted in communication. They help learners develop clearer pronunciation, understand natural speech patterns, and express information effectively. This extended article examines how stress operates on individual words, how prominence functions in discourse, and why these features are important for developing strong speaking skills. Additional examples and explanations are provided to create a more detailed and academically appropriate work.References
