Thank you Professor. Would you possibly make a lecture on FOOT and METRIC GRID? My name is Peter Sserubidde. I am a student of linguistics. I'm from Uganda, East Africa.
This is a good question. Stress placement and/or speech rhythm are important for lexical access - i.e., it helps the brain of the speaker of a given language identify words when selecting them before speaking, and helps the listener interpret them, as rhythmic cues can indicate e.g. where words begin in the stream of speech and which words/syllables carry important information. Where English is concerned, there is a lot of discussion about rhythm in different varieties around the world and the fact that difficulties perceiving a variety with a different rhythm from the one a speaker uses can lead to breakdowns in understanding. Also, rhythm is important culturally in other activities (e.g., music), not only in speech. But if you're not interested in any of these things then there is no reason why you should - as you put it - give a fuck. And if Elon Musk's prediction that human language will become obsolete soon is anything to go by, then maybe nobody will need to have fucks to give where speech rhythm is concerned.
@@DrJaneSetter Ok, so what i got from your reply professor is that rhythm helps us to know which word will be given a a strong and weak stresses before we pronounce them. And it also helps us to connect words correctly. Thank you for your reply, i would never think you would reply lol. Like i said the problem is we read and comprehend this subject, but most people really don't give a crap about it. Anyhow, thanks again for making it clear.
Very good and useful lecture particularly for advanced learners of English Phonetics

Dear professor, you should open your own TH-cam channel or be shown in TV.
Is "the fooot" the same thing of "the tone unit"? Thanks!
No, it's a unit of rhythm. Have a look at my personal page (Jane Setter) for some videos on intonation.
I like the rap music
