Hello Everybody,

At the moment, I think it's interesting to talk about the emphatic use in the English language. I mean, for example we can emphasize what we want to say by stressing part of the sentence: It's John that I love. It's yesterday I met Bopha. Did you get it? If you did, why not tell me what you know about it? How many ways to make your words sound emphatic? When exactly are you going to tell me?  Grin

Thanks in advance.

Oh, if you do, could you let us know how many ways you, as a native speaker, use to express emphasis on what you speak or write?  Wink
