Unit 19. Логическое ударение

Логическое ударение – это особое средство выделения какого-либо слова. Слово с логическим ударением приобретает значения “именно это, а не то”, “именно такой, а не другой”. Ударение на слове с логическим ударением является настолько сильным, что все стоящие за ним слова до самого конца синтагмы оказываются безударными:

'My friend comes back tomorrow.

My 'friend comes back tomorrow.

My friend 'comes back tomorrow.

My friend comes back to'morrow.
