Stressing out about emphasis with He Huang

from Bad English

Shortcuts cause Ivan a special level of dread… contractions, acronyms and abbreviations drive him mad. Fellow comedian He Huang is from Chongqing, an area of China known for its spicy food, and has a sense of humour to match. She trained as a linguist but ditched that path to relocate to Australia and pursue stand-up, winning viral success via a clip of her appearance on Australia’s Got Talent. English teacher Ai-Lin puts He through an exercise in decoding how stresses on different words can change the meaning of everything.
