t l = trip let; so 1 trip let and trip let ... etc.
It may be easier to just say 1 n uh and n uh 2 n uh and n uh ... etc.
The faster the tempo, the harder it is to work those accents in. But they really help you keep a consistent rhythm - you know every 2, 3, 4, or 6 notes you should be making an accented downstroke on the beat. It's easy to hear when and in which direction your rhythm is falling off and make the correction. A consistent rhythm demands control and accents demand more control than static dynamics. That makes this a great warm-up.
