質問: Do these two sentences have the same sound? (The romanji are the same, but I am not sure about the stress). 1. いつか日本に行きます。(I will go to Japan someday.) 2. 五日日本に行きます。(I'm going to Japan on the 5th.) How can we tell one from the other?
回答: No, they are different in pitch accent. > > * [いつか]{HLL}日本に行きます。 someday > * [いつか]{LHH}日本に行きます。 on the 5th > > > You can check Google Translate's synthesized voice, which sounds fine enough to me.
