How come it has seven meanings? "I never said she stole my money" has seven different meanings depending on the word you stress. I don't get it! What are the seven different meanings? Is that true in the first place?

Also why so many misunderstandings happen with texts and emails. I had a 6ft 2 black belt in karate, around my house threatening to put me in hospital, because the moron couldn't interpret a text. Little does he know, if I ever get a terminal disease, I'm going to set him on fire.

Yea, it's a typical, but good example of the importance of where the stress is. I read another one, "I gave John the book". *I* = no one else did. *gave* = I didn't charge him for it. *John* = no one else got it. *book* = nothing else/this is the matter of importance.
