Hi,

Am I using sentence stress correctly in the following sentences?

[color=blue]1. We got off on the wrong foot. (I was talking about a social meeting last week. )

  1. What do you think that is? ( I was talking to my kid, looking at an insect.)

  2. He makes minimum wage. ( I was talking about the state of a friend).

Thanks.

More common for me would be

  1. off/foot
    2, that
  2. He makes a/the minimum wage
