Beskrivning
American English Phonetic Transcription provides an accessible introduction to phonemic, phonetic, and intonational transcription with a focus on American English. Featuring exercises, revision tasks, and recordings to help students gain hands-on practice, the book takes a learning-by-doing approach and ensures students gain practice using each new symbol or concept introduced before moving on to the next. Consisting of three parts, the book covers: transcribing individual words, including consonants, vowels, primary stress, secondary stress, syllabic consonants, and inflections; transcribing phrases and sentences, including weak forms, elision, and assimilation; transcribing intonation, including the structure of English intonation and recognizing pitch patterns.Ideally suited as a standalone workbook or for use alongside British English Phonetic Transcription, American English Phonetic Transcription is key reading for undergraduate students of linguistics as well as anyone teaching or learning English as a foreign language.

Recensioner i media

“Phonemic transcription is an invaluable tool for language learners and teachers. In my opinion, American English Phonetic Transcription is by far the best treatment of the subject to date. It’s comprehensive, accessible, and contains a wealth of practice material supported by recordings. Truly an indispensable resource for anyone interested in the sounds of English!”Hiroshi Miura, Senshu University, Japan"This book takes a systematic approach to successful phonetic transcription, focusing on step-by-step fundamentals needed by any beginning linguist or English language teacher in approaching English speech in words and phrases."John Levis, Iowa State University, USA
