'skyis'blue.?數(shù)詞（Numeral）可分為基數(shù)詞和序數(shù)詞，在句中一般需重讀。

例如：His'firstdaughteris'fifteen.Her'secondsonis'twenty'five.?動詞（Verb）實義動詞一般都有語句重音。例如：'John'likes'music.'Mary'plays

'tennis'well.?副詞（Adverb）大部分副詞在句中均需重讀。

例如：TheycanallspeakEnglish'fluently.Pronunciation?代詞（Pronoun）一般不重讀，但下列代詞一般需重讀：

1.指示代詞this，that，these，those。如：'Theseand'thosemeantwoormore.2.反身代詞myself，yourself，himself，herself，ourselves，yourselves等。

例如：He'himselfcookedthedinner.3.不定代詞some，all，both，none，neither，every，other，another，much，many，few等。例如：'Somearegirls,'someareboys.4.疑問代詞，疑問副詞who，what，what，how，where等。

例如：'Whocanthatbe?

5.嘆詞Oh，Ah，Hey，My，Hello，Dearme等。

例如：'OhJohn.Whatareyoudoingoverthere?Pronunciation虛詞不重讀?冠詞（Article）分為不定冠詞（a,an）及定冠詞（the），一般沒有語句重音。

例如：Themanoverthereismyfather.

Anelephantisananimal.

?代詞（Pronoun）沒有語句重音的代詞一般指：

人稱代詞I，me，you，he，him，she，her，it，we，us，they，them等；物主代詞my，your，his，her，its，our，their等；關系代詞who，whose，that，which等。例如：Iamateacher.
