Explanation
The difference in the pronunciation of numbers ending in ty, (like 30, 50, and 80) and
numbers ending in -teen (like 13, 15, and 18) is mostly a difference in syllable stress.
Each has a different stress pattern.

2.

Articulation presentation and demonstration
A.

For numbers ending in ty, stress the first syllable, not the ty syllable. Examples:
THIR</b>ty, FIF</b>ty, EIGH</b>ty
B.

For numbers ending in teen, stress the last syllable. Examples: thir<b>teen, fif<b>teen,
eigh<b>teen

Be careful to use the correct stress pattern when you pronounce numbers.

3.

Reading Infusion (see Handout B)
A.

Read aloud with the class two times. Pronounce the bolded letters loud and strong,
with emphasis to reinforce the placement of articulators and correct production.

B.

With a partner, read the passage/dialog aloud with normal stress (emphasis) and
intonation (expression). Think about the sounds demonstrated and modeled by your
teacher in the lesson as you read. Listen for the correct pronunciation. Your partner
will tell you if s/he hears the correct sounds and understands your pronunciation.
