Syllable Stress: Stressing numbers with TEENs.

When counting the “teens”:  13, 14, 16, 17, 18, and 19, stress the SECOND syllable.  In other words, stress the TEEN.  Remember, stress means to make the syllable louder and longer than the others.


For example:


13 is pronounced thirTEEN


15 is pronounced fifTEEN


19 is pronounced nineTEEN
