1. The Gettysburg Address: You'll need the full text of the Gettysburg Address. It's readily available online.
2. Syllable Count: Carefully count the syllables in each word. Here's a reminder of how to count syllables:
* Each vowel sound typically marks a syllable (e.g., "cat" has one syllable, "paper" has two).
* A single vowel can sometimes represent two sounds (e.g., "great" has one syllable, "treat" has two).
3. Tally: Make a list of all words with two or more syllables.
4. Total: Add up the number of words on your list.
Let me know if you want to do this together, and I can help you count syllables and find the total.
