Spoken English: PRONUNCIATION (English Edition)
Spoken English - International Edition
About the book
The book deals with commonly mispronounced words among non native speakers. Its main purpose is to focus on the difficulties learners have in speaking English and understanding the spoken language. Speaking and listening skills both go hand in hand so in order to speak well, the learner has first of all to improve his/her listening skills by becoming phonetically aware of how words are pronounced. The fact is, there are many difficulties due to English not being a phonetic language. It is thereby important to recognise the English sound system patterns. The book focuses on high frequency mispronounced words among foreign learners.
By improving your oral and listening skills you can become more communicative and, what’s more, you can begin to speak with less of a foreign accent.
English is not a phonetic language. For this reason the book is dedicated to pronunciation and the study of the phonemic script and how to use it. If you are unfamiliar with phonemes then it is a good idea to begin to become aware of how important they are to achieving accuracy in the spoken language. This phonetic “language” has been devised for non natives to aid with pronunciation.
One of the most fascinating and elusive aspects in learning English is the phonetics. "To speak like a native speaker" is a skill that many would like to develop, but few manage to achieve.
Why should I improve my accent?
For several reasons.
We live in a society where we are judged not only by appearance but also by the way we speak.
Improving your pronunciation will give you a sense of fulfilment and accomplishment from a cultural point of view.
