so what is intonation to put it simply intonation is the melody of spoken english it is the way in

Vậy thì ngữ điệu là gì? Nói một cách đơn giản, ngữ điệu là giai điệu của tiếng Anh nói, đó là cách mà...

which your voice rises

khi giọng nói của bạn trở nên cao hơn

and falls as you speak let me show you an example

và giảm xuống khi bạn nói, để tôi cho bạn xem một ví dụ

i am watching this video to improve my english i am

Tôi đang xem video này để cải thiện trình độ tiếng Anh của mình.

watching this video to improve my english see now why does intonation matter.

Tôi đang xem video này để cải thiện tiếng Anh của mình, và bây giờ tôi đã hiểu tại sao ngữ điệu lại quan trọng đến vậy.

Intonation is not just to add beauty to your speech.

Ngữ điệu không chỉ đơn thuần là làm cho lời nói của bạn trở nên hay hơn.

It can change the meaning of what you say.

Nó có thể thay đổi ý nghĩa của những gì bạn nói.

For one thing, intonation can highlight the central point in a sentence.

Một mặt, ngữ điệu có thể làm nổi bật ý chính trong một câu.

Rising the intonation on a certain word in a sentence can show

Việc nhấn giọng cao hơn vào một từ nhất định trong câu có thể thể hiện

that that word is the center of the message that you want to deliver with that sentence.

từ đó là trọng tâm của thông điệp mà bạn muốn truyền tải qua câu đó.

For example, I like to play tennis.

Ví dụ, tôi thích chơi quần vợt.

I like to play tennis.

Tôi thích chơi quần vợt.

If I say that I like to play tennis, it means that it's me who wants to play tennis, not you, not him, not her.

Nếu tôi nói rằng tôi thích chơi quần vợt, điều đó có nghĩa là chính tôi là người muốn chơi quần vợt, không phải bạn, không phải anh ấy, cũng không phải cô ấy.

If I say I like to play tennis it means i

Nếu tôi nói rằng tôi thích chơi quần vợt thì điều đó có nghĩa là tôi

like it i don't hate it the central point is like

Tôi thích nó, tôi không ghét nó, điểm chính là...

if i say i like to play tennis it means

nếu tôi nói rằng tôi thích chơi quần vợt thì điều đó có nghĩa là

that i want to play it i don't want to watch it and

tôi muốn chơi nó chứ không phải xem nó và

if i say i like to play tennis it means i

nếu tôi nói rằng tôi thích chơi tennis thì điều đó có nghĩa là tôi

like to play tennis i don't want to play soccer as

Tôi thích chơi tennis, tôi không muốn chơi bóng đá.

you can see the same sentence could have four different meanings

bạn có thể thấy cùng một câu có thể có bốn ý nghĩa khác nhau

just by raising my tone of voice on a specific word in

chỉ cần nhấn giọng vào một từ cụ thể trong

that sentence for another thing intonation can show attitude it can reflect the attitude of the speaker for example

Một điều nữa là ngữ điệu có thể thể hiện thái độ, nó phản ánh thái độ của người nói, ví dụ như

if you are happy you tend to raise your voice and if you are sad you lower it

nếu bạn đang vui, bạn có xu hướng tăng giọng nói, còn nếu đang buồn, bạn sẽ hạ giọng xuống.

let me give you an example

để tôi cho bạn một ví dụ nhé

if i am happy i would say i want to play tennis if i am sad i would say

Nếu tôi vui thì tôi sẽ nói là tôi muốn chơi tennis, còn nếu tôi buồn thì tôi sẽ nói là

I want to play tennis.

Tôi muốn chơi quần vợt.

You see?

So the intonation and the loudness of my voice can show the attitude, even though my face does not change.

Vì vậy, ngữ điệu và độ lớn của giọng nói có thể thể hiện thái độ của tôi, ngay cả khi khuôn mặt của tôi không thay đổi.

I want to play tennis.

Now, if you add intonation to some facial expressions, then you can deliver a very concise message i want to

play tennis i want to play tennis now let's learn about intonation patterns

there are three main intonation patterns look at this example do you like tennis

i don't play tennis but i like it one more time do you like tennis do you like tennis

I don't play tennis.

I don't play tennis, but I like it.

I like it.

In this sentence, you can see three different intonation patterns.

The first one is a rising intonation.

Do you like tennis?

Tennis.

Repeat after me.

Tennis.

So your voice rises.

Do you like tennis? the second one is a fall rise intonation

which means first your voice falls

and then it rises I don't play tennis repeat after me I don't play tennis I don't play tennis

and the third one is falling intonation

which means your tone of voice falls down

but I like it I like it I like it I don't say I like it no I like it

so let's read the sentence again repeat after me do you like tennis I don't play tennis

but I like it now it is time to learn more about these patterns

and see when to use which one of them.

in order to improve your pronunciation and speak more clearly.

The first pattern is falling intonation.

Falling intonation.

We use it when we are talking about something which will definitely happen or that is complete.

So use it when you are certain of something.

Let's have a look at some examples.

I have to work.

Repeat after me and notice that the last word has a falling intonation.

It means my voice comes down.

I have to work.

This is for sure.

I'm certain of it.

I have to work.

Let's see another example.

Here's your book.

Pay attention.

Here's your book.

I couldn't find it.

I finished my homework.

I want to see you tomorrow.

So we use the falling intonation when we are sure and certain of something or to talk about something which is complete.

Falling intonation is also very common in WH questions.

For example, what time does the movie begin?

what time does the movie begin as you can see as

i get to the end of the sentence my tone of

100

voice falls down what time does the movie begin where is

101

the nearest bus stop where's the nearest bus stop where's the

102

nearest bus stop why do you study english why do you

103

study english why do you study english the next pattern is

104

rising intonation rising intonation is very common in yes no questions your voice rises

105

when you get to the end of the question for example is he sad

106

lesson up is he sad i don't say is he sad

107

no is he sad it's a yes no question yes he is No, he isn't.

108

Is he sad?

109

Is she our doctor?

110

Is she our doctor?

111

Is she our doctor?

112

Did they call?

113

Did they call?

114

Did they call?

115

Now, look at this question.

116

Are you watching the movie or not?

117

This is called an alternative question because you have two alternatives.

118

One before or and one after or when you have

119

or in a question that's an alternative question and

120

when you have an alternative question before or you have a rising intonation

121

and after or you have a falling intonation

122

so let's read this question again together are you watching the movie

123

or not are you watching the movie or not are you watching the movie

124

or not another example is he sitting or standing?

125

Is he sitting or standing?

126

Are they coming or going?

127

Are they coming or going?

128

And the third pattern of intonation is a fall rise intonation

129

which has a fall and then it's followed by a rise in your tone of voice.

130

We use this when something is incomplete or we are uncertain of something

131

or we still want to continue the sentence

132

and the sentence is not finished yet look at this i'm tired i'm tired this is a simple falling intonation

133

which means i'm talking about something that i am sure of

134

and the sentence is complete i'm tired but look at this one i'm tired

135

but let's go out and have some fun i'm tired i'm tired

136

but let's go out

137

and have some fun the first part of the sentence has a fall rise intonation I'm tired

138

which means the sentence is not complete yet.

139

I still want to continue the sentence.

140

I want to show contrast.

141

I'm tired but let's go out and have some fun.

142

Look at this one.

143

I don't play tennis.

144

I don't play tennis.

145

This is the following intonation because I'm sure of it.

146

I don't play tennis but look at this one i don't play tennis

147

but i like watching it i don't play tennis

148

but i like watching it the first half of the sentence has a fall rise intonation on the word tennis

149

i don't play tennis which means the sentence is not complete yet

150

and i want to show contrast i don't play tennis

151

but i like watching it in these two examples the fall rise intonation was on one word.

152

Tennis.

153

tired it's also possible that the fall rise intonation are separately on two different words

154

so one word with the falling and one word with the rising intonation

155

that is also called the fall rise intonation this fall rise intonation shows

156

that my sentence is not complete

157

and i want to talk about a contrasting point the first week was good

158

but the second week was terrible the first week has a

159

falling intonation was good as a rising intonation this is a fall rise intonation

160

and it shows that the sentence is not complete the first week was good

161

but the second week was terrible

162

or look at this one she's quite a good teacher she's quite a good teacher the intonation shows

163

that the sentence is not complete

164

and by hearing this sentence your mind immediately looks for a

165

but listen to it again she's quite a good teacher okay

166

but she's quite a good teacher

167

but she's a bit old she's quite a good teacher

168

but she's a bit old on the adverb quite we have

169

a falling intonation she's quite a good teacher on the word

170

teacher we have a rising intonation she's quite a good teacher

171

and that's it guys we have learned about three patterns of intonation falling rising

172

and the fall rise intonation

173

and we have learned how intonation can help us improve our pronunciation sound more like a native speaker

174

and make ourselves understood better and don't forget

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
