Abstract:	It is a world-wide fact that the English language has long since played one of the most important roles in the modern world both in doing researches and in carrying on communication. No doubt, it demands great care, constant patience, and earnest efforts to master English and then put it to good usage. And it is obvious that every language involves two aspects: spoken and written. The same with the English language, too. Spoken English requires repeated drills and frequent utillization under favorable environment to come to perfection. Of course, good intonation helps a great deal to thorough understanding. So the accurate accent in individual words combined with correct pronunciation is of great importance in order to acquire adequate function. If we put our mind to practicing speaking, we can seize every opportunity available to improve. By the time we manage to reach fluency, we will readily not only feel an unspeakable sense of achievement but find great enjoyment in successful communication as well. But as to written English, we have the knowledge that it consists in considerable problems that call for our close attention, for instance, spelling, sentence patterns and grammatical structures, etc. Among them, how to syllabify and accentuate words especially with polysyllables may be of instant importance. Because without accurate and proficient treatment with both of them, ridiculous errors may arise. That is the major objective of my offering some hints and keys to these two branches. I think the rules are invariably of great help to the solutions of all the puzzling points concerning syllabification and accentuation. Here I offer sixteen rules for syllabification and ten rules for accentuation as follows. I do hope that these rules will be of great value.
