An even smaller unit, a distinctive feature, relates to how or where asound is produced when we speak. The distinctive feature which makes/b/and/p/separate phonemes in English is voicing: when/b/is pronounced thevocal cords are vibrating, but when/p/is pronounced, the vocal cords arenot vibrating. These minute contrasts contribute to a speaker's accent. (Oneof my Arabic-speaking students who didn't distinguish between/b/and/p/told me he'd had "green bee soup" for lunch!)
On the right side of the pyramid there are three other labels. Stress,rhythm, and intonation are called the suprasegmental phonemes, becausewhen we speak, they carry meaning differences but they operate "above" thesegmental phonemes. To illustrate that the suprasegmental phonemes carrymeaning, consider the sentence, "I think I know." It can convey four differ-ent meanings, depending on the stress:
In these four utterances, the bold italic typeface shows which word isstressed. If you say these sentences aloud, you will hear the sound and mean-ing differences among them. The differences are related to the context wherethe utterances occur. Consider these interpretations:
/think /know. (You may not think I know the answer, but I'm pretty sure I do.)
think / know. (I'm not entirely sure, but I think I know the answer.)
/ think / know. (You may not know the answer, but I think I do.)
/ think / know. (I am not unsure-I am quite confident that I know the answer.)
Now that we have reached the top of the pyramid, you can see that all thelevels of language operate when we speak, and conversation is not really sim-ple at all. It is important for language teachers to understand these units oflanguage and how they work together. Given this background information,we will now consider five principles for teaching speaking.
