"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."  

 "A poem is the very image of life expressed in its eternal truth."

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined." 

"If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman." 

"That’s one small step for a man, a giant leap for mankind."

• In American English pronounces the "r" sound as a retroflex approximant, whereas British English pronounces it as a non-rhotic sound.
•  Based on the sentences that the interviewee said, the word “character” is a rhotic word. 
• The /r/ sound in the word is pronounced clearly compared to non-rhotic accents where the "r" sound is frequently missed before consonants or at the end of words. (Carley & Mees, 2021)
• As a result, the word "character" would be rhotic in American English if the "r" had been spoken.

• Short vowel and long vowel are included in phonemic variation. According to Fourakis (1991), it is believed that phonetic vowel reduction affects all vowels and is brought on by rapid speech rates, context, and relaxation.  
• For example based on the sentence, in American English dreams is pronounced as /drim/ while in British English, dreams is pronounced as /dri:mz/.

1. The British English speaker uses a fall to rise intonation pattern in his communication. To illustrate, it can be heard in the audio recording when he said the phrase “ if you want something said, ask a man, if you want something done, ask a woman. The highlighted ones were the point where he’s raising his intonation.

2. Then, in the IPA Transcription, it would be "ɪf juː wɒnt ˈsʌmθɪŋ sɛd, ɑːsk ə mæn; ɪf juː wɒnt ˈsʌmθɪŋ dʌn, ɑːsk ə ˈwʊmən."

3. The English are (maybe wrongly) known for their reserved delivery, nuance, and possibly sarcasm. This pattern informs the listener that there is something beyond the words being stated, similar to saying "but" without saying "but." (Hudson, 2016)

STRESS PATTERN

1. The pitch changes depending on which syllable comes before or after it. The pitch of a stressed syllable is often higher. (Word Stress, n.d.).

2. Based on the audio recording, there are parts of his speaking in which they were stressed. For instance, the phrase "Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined." The words that have been highlighted were the ones that were stressed by the speaker.

3. Hence, if it is going to be transcribed, it would be like "ɡəʊ ˈkɒnfɪdᵊntli ɪn ðə daɪˈrɛkʃᵊn ɒv jɔː driːmz. lɪv ðə laɪf juː hæv ɪˈmæʤɪnd."

4. Stress patterns help speaker deliver their speech with flying colors as it will attracts the listener's attention and also gives the opportunity to the speaker to express their emotions or feelings.

1. In British English, modals like "will" and "would" are used in a predictive sense. (Faruquzzaman Akan, 2019).

2. To illustrate, in the voice recording, the phrase "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."

3. Based on the sentence, we may predict that the four little children will live peacefully in a country without having to worry about their skin color, if only they maintained a good attitude.

4. This shows that the usage of "will" makes readers foretell something that might happen in the future.

"Going to" and "gonna"

1. Other example is the function of "going to" and "gonna". According to Faruquzzaman Akan (2019), British English employs be + 'going to' in informal spoken language, but American English uses the shortened form 'gonna' (/gɒnə/) to indicate the future.

2. For example, British English - "Is she going to come to class?"

American English - " Is she gonna come to class?"

• Based on the video recording, the American English speaker stressed on certain words. 
• For example, in the first sentence, "A poem is the very image of life expressed in its eternal truth.“ "ə ˈpoʊəm əz ðə ˈvɛriˈɪməʤ əv laɪf ɪkˈsprɛstɪn ɪts ɪˈtɜrnəl truθ."
• The stress words in this sentence based on the American speaker is poem, image, expressed, eternal and truth.
• Stress patterns can sometimes give different meanings depending on the speaker’s intentions, whether it can be noun or verb. (Sereno, 2005)
• Based on the sentences, the word that can bring different meanings are such as:

1. Content

• Noun: /ˈkɒntɛnt/
• Verb: /kənˈtɛnt/

• Noun: /driːm/
• Verb: /driːm/

• Examples from the other sources is SURvey (noun) and surVEY (verb).

•  Americans prefer to use the more informal words "will" or "should," but British people are more likely to use formal terms like "shall." (British Council Foundation Indonesia, n.d)

• The present perfect is frequently substituted with the past simple in American English. For instance, they usually use "I just ate" instead of "I've just eaten".  (Enago, 2023)
