In this video, you are going to learn the Japanese pitch accent rules of compound nouns. When you learn the rules, it is important to pay attention to how many moras the following noun has. There are 3 cases:
1. The following noun has 5 or more moras.
2. The following noun has 3 or 4 moras.
3. The following noun has 1 or 2 moras.
Depending on that, a different pitch accent rule applies to a compound noun. After watching this video, you will be able to pronounce Japanese compound nouns correctly and also apply an appropriate rule to a compound noun that you don’t find how to pronounce in your pitch accent dictionary.
