English Phonology and Pronunciation Teaching
About this book
This book aims to provide a clear description of key aspects of English phonology in order to help teachers diagnose and prioritize problem areas in pronunciation. It also aims to develop an awareness of current issues and relevant research in the field to inform teachers decisions, not only about what to teach, but how to teach pronunciation, particularly in EIL contexts. Specifically, it aims to enable readers to: * Understand key terms and concepts in phonology and phonetics
* Become aware of current issues and debates in research and apply these to pronunciation teaching, particularly in EIL contexts
* Conduct phonological analysis of learner language, including phonemic transcription
* Diagnose and assess learner's pronunciation difficulties and needs
* Plan a structured pronunciation syllabus The book assumes no prior knowledge and is a key resource for both newcomers and experienced practitioners in the fields of English Language Teaching as well as students of applied linguistics.

Can
you
think
of
anyone
who
employs
‘breathy

How

think
they
sound?
The
articulatory
organs
The
third
part
of
the
speech
mechanism,
above
the
larynx
(i.e.
supralaryngeal
),
is
known
as
the
vocal
tract
and
the
organs
within
it
are
the
articulatory
organs
or
articulators.
The
articulators
are
the
different
parts
of
the
vocal
tract
that
can
change
the
shape
of
the
air
flow
as
it
escapes
either

or

There
are
three
sections
or

in

(Figure

for

or

(the
pharyngeal
cavity
),
one
for
the
mouth
(the
oral
cavity
)
and
one
for
the
nose
(the
nasal
cavity
).
The
size
and
shape
of
these
cavities
can
be
altered
by
movements
of
the
various
articula-
tory
organs,
resulting
in
changes
to

sound
of

airstream,
