Applied English PhonologyJohn Wiley & Sons, 25.01.2011 - 271 Seiten Applied English Phonology responds to the need for a practical and accessible source on applied phonology for students from applied linguistics, TESOL, and speech pathology programs. It does so by covering the fundamental aspects of the English sound system, including basic phonetic elements, phonemics, allophonic rules of English consonants and vowels, phonotactics, and stress and intonation. This new edition has been thoroughly revised and extended and now includes numerous sound files for transcription practice, new exercises, explanations of sociophonetic variation, andsystematic and expanded coverage of regional vowel shifts in the United States. It also includes entirely new sections on the role of Optimality Theory and perception in second language phonology. All chapters include extensive and updated exercises to aid students in both their grasp of the subject and their effective assimilation of material. The Instructor’s Manual and sound files are available at www.wiley.com/go/yavas. |
