While there are many reasons someone may choose to speak a certain way and stress certain words, much of this comes down to individual style. In this section, we will explore style and tone separately and together, and you will have opportunities to practice using your voice to express yourself. It’s useful to practice speaking with different focus words to find what feels comfortable for your own style and tone. Certain words may be stressed in a way that is unique to the tone you wish to portray. You can also show your tone through focus words. This means there may be additional focus words in a thought group. However, everyone speaks differently, and there is so much room to find your own speaking style with focus words.
As mentioned in the Focus Words and Prominence section, each thought group generally has one or two focus words.
