Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Songs and rhymes have long been employed as effective tools in language teaching, particularly for young learners. However, their impact extends far beyond mere entertainment. This article explores the influence of songs and rhymes on the development of pronunciation and intonation in English learners. Drawing from various empirical studies and theoretical perspectives, it analyzes how musical elements aid in phonological awareness, sound articulation, rhythm acquisition, and prosodic features such as stress and intonation. Furthermore, it emphasizes the psychological and cognitive advantages of using rhythmic and melodic input in the classroom.
