A COURSE IN PHONETICS AND SPOKEN ENGLISH by J. SETHI,P. V. DHAMIJA Pdf

This much improved revised edition of the book takes into account the needs of the student in the context of the present curricula followed in various universities and English language teaching institutes. This edition therefore devotes a new chapter to Assimilation, a section to Tones in relation to Attitudes, and highlights certain important aspects of pronunciation, such as rules of word accentuation.Starting with general phonetics, the book goes on to give a brief functional account of general phonology and then a selective and yet fairly exhaustive description of the phonetics and phonology of English. It also provides a number of conversational passages in phonetic script as well as in ordinary spelling for practice in reading aloud. What sets this text apart is its novelty of approach and lucidity of treatment. English pronunciation is followed as per the "Received Pronunciation of England". This text is specially designed for postgraduate students of English, undergraduate and postgraduate students of Linguistics, and for those undergoing secondary and tertiary level teachers' training programmes in English.

Introducing Phonetics and Phonology by Mike Davenport,S.J. Hannahs Pdf

This book examines some of the ways in which linguists can express what native speakers know about the sound system of their language. Intended for the absolute beginner, it requires no previous background in linguistics, phonetics or phonology. Starting with a grounding in phonetics and phonological theory, the book provides a base from which more advanced treatments may be approached. It begins with an examination of the foundations of articulatory and acoustic phonetics, moves on to the basic principles of phonology, and ends with an outline of some further issues within contemporary phonology. Varieties of English, particularly Received Pronunciation and General American, form the focus of consideration, but aspects of the phonetics and phonology of other languages are discussed as well. This new edition includes more discussion of Optimality Theory and a new glossary of terms. It has been updated throughout to take account of the latest developments in phonological theory, but without sacrificing the book's ease of use for beginners.

English Phonetics & Phonology for Indonesians by Soenjono Dardjowidjojo Pdf

Buku English Phonetics and Phonology for Indonesia ini dirancang sebagai buku teks untuk mahasiswa Strata 1 Jurusan Bahasa Inggris, baik mereka yang akan menjadi guru maupun yang tujuannya lain. Karena tingkatnya yang bersifat “pengantar”, buku ini sengaja tidak ditulis secara detail. Namun demikian dalam buku ini disajikan semua fonem segmental seperti vocal dan konsonan serta suprasegmental fonem seperti tekanan kata dan intonasi. Orientasi teoritisnya bersandar pada aliran generative. Karena bahasa natif memegang peran penting dalam penguasaan bunyi-bunyi Inggris, dalam buku ini disajikan satu bab khusus yang menggambarkan sistim bunyi bahasa kita, bahasa Indonesia. Bab ini dipakai sebagai rujukan untuk membandingkan bagaimana bunyi-bunyi bahasa Inggris dibuat dan pengaruh apa yang dimunculkan oleh bahasa natif kita. Buku ini didesain untuk satu semester. Dosen disarankan untuk menjelaskan konsep-konsep yang ada pada tiap bab. Untuk benar-benar memahami buku ini, pada akhir bab disajikan latihan untuk menerapkan konsep-konsep yang dibahas dalam bab masing-masing.
