question is how do I say computer program and I'm going to expand that

lesson for you and we're going to work on several things we're going to work on

number one how to say those words of course and number two we're going to

work on a compound noun and how you go about doing that and then I'm throwing a

little bonus and we're going to add some different endings so you have more bang

for your buck today okay so the words are computer program let's look at the

syllables we have cum really short schwa sound in there cuz that's the

unstressed syllable cum pew and you're going to really make that syllable

louder longer and higher in pitch and then we're gonna end with a der yes we

have that flap T in there don't overthink it too much just think about

saying a fast D sound that helps most people so let's put that all together

computer computer computer computer all right if you want to say a T you're

totally fine you can say computer and everyone's going to understand you but

technically we do say that flap T there which sounds a little bit more like a

d alright next for the word program we're going to stress syllable

one and we are going to make that oh nice and long make that syllable a

little bit louder hand a little bit higher in pitch Pro Gram program

program so we have computer program so when you say those two words separately

they both get stress for word one and stress forward - now when we put those

together and make them a compound noun which means we take two words smush them

together and it creates a new vocabulary word so we know what a computer is we

know what a program is but when you have a computer program it means something

individual and different so we put these two words together you're going to

stress word one in a compound noun and the second word is going

to be less stressed and then you're going to link those words together with

no pause in between so I'll say them first as just separate words computer

program now if we're linking it together we're making that compound noun computer

program computer program computer program now people went on to ask

different questions about this how do I say the word programmer and programming

okay so all we're going to do here is we are going to add a new syllable for each

of those programmer programing that's a little bit unstressed because we're just

adding that suffix on to that word but same rules apply you want to stress word

one more because we're making these into compound nouns and unstress word two a

little bit but within those two words don't forget you still do have a stress

syllable that gets super confusing so remember you have syllable stress in

each word the PEW and the pro but then when you're stressing word one this

whole word is going to be a little bit louder longer and higher than the second

word so let's put that all together computer program computer programmer

computer programming so computer program computer programmer and computer

programming so the computer programmer likes programming the computer so that

the computer program can work to the best of its ability give it a try

people are going to notice the difference if you found that helpful
