English Pronunciation for Speakers of Spanish by María de los Ángeles Gómez González,Teresa Sánchez Roura Pdf

English Pronunciation for Speakers of Spanish fills a gaping hole in the market for books on English phonetics and pronunciation because it not only combines theoretical issues and applications to practice, but it also adopts a contrastive English-Spanish approach to better suit the needs of Spanish-speaking learners of English (SSLE), enabling them to build gradually on the knowledge gained in each chapter. The book covers the key concepts of English phonetics and phonology in seven chapters written in an accessible and engaging style: 1. Phonetics and Phonology 2. The Production and Classification of Speech Sounds 3. Vowels and Glides 4. Consonants 5. Segment Dynamics: Aspects of Connected Speech 6. Beyond the Segment: Stress and Intonation 7. Predicting Pronunciation from Spelling (and vice versa) Features: in-text audio illustrations, as well as over a hundred written and audio exercises with corresponding keys and different kinds of artwork (Tables, Figures, illustrations, spectrograms, etc.) classic readings in the discipline in the Further Reading section of each chapter highlights the phonetic contrasts and specific cues that are more important to aid comprehension in English and offers guidelines on "correct" pronunciation habits to help SSLE sound as close as possible to native English The book's companion website, EPSS Multimedia Lab, can be used on computers, smartphones and tablets, and is useful for the self-taught student and the busy lecturer alike. Features of the website: a complete sound bank defining and illustrating the sounds of English RP as compared with those of Peninsular Spanish written definitions and animated diagrams, videos and original recordings (by native speakers of English and Spanish) showing the articulation of each sound, alongside its most common spellings, as well as pronunciation practice for individual words and whole sentences a comprehensive selection of over a hundred written and audio exercises (with their keys) for practice both at home or in the language lab audio files corresponding to the audio illustrations given in the written book a repository of useful resources by topics and a list of online glossaries and pronunciation dictionaries

Teach Yourself English Pronunciation: An Interactive Course for Spanish Speakers by Eva Estebas Vilaplana Pdf

¿Has estado estudiando inglés durante mucho tiempo pero te da la impresión de que todavía no entiendes con claridad a la gente inglesa? O, lo que es peor, ¿no consigues hacer que te entiendan? Se trata de un problema muy común entre los hispanohablantes que han invertido muchos años de su vida en clases de inglés, logrando alcanzar un excelente nivel de vocabulario y gramática, y todavía con grandes dificultades a la hora de comunicarse oralmente. La mayoría de esos problemas podrían resolverse si los hispanohablantes hubiesen prestado más atención al aspecto de la pronunciación, teniendo en cuenta que es el área en la que más difieren el inglés y el español. Este libro está pensado para ayudar a resolver esos problemas de comunicación en inglés, presentando las cuestiones más relevantes de la pronunciación inglesa y comparándolas con aquellas de la pronunciación española. No sólo abarca las vocales y las consonantes, si no también otros aspectos como el ritmo, la entonación, o la colocación del acento. El libro viene acompañado de un CD-ROM con material de audio y ejercicios interactivos.

¿Por qué? 101 Questions About Spanish by Judy Hochberg Pdf

¿Por qué? 101 Questions about Spanish is for anyone who wants to understand how Spanish really works. Standard textbooks and grammars describe the "what" of Spanish - its vocabulary, grammar, spelling, and pronunciation - but ¿Por qué? explains the "why". Judy Hochberg draws on linguistic principles, Hispanic culture, and language history to answer questions such as: Why are so many Spanish verbs irregular? - Why does Spanish have different ways to say "you"? - Why is h silent? - Why doesn't Spanish use apostrophes? - Why does Castilian Spanish have the th sound? Packed with information, guidance, and links to further research, ¿Por qué? is an accessible study guide that is suitable for Spanish students, instructors, native speakers, and the general reader. It is a valuable supplementary text for serious students of Spanish at all levels, from beginning to advanced. ¿Por qué? also covers topics usually left to specialized books, including the evolution of Spanish, how children and adults learn Spanish, and the status of languages that co-exist with Spanish, from Catalan to Spanish sign language to the indigenous languages of Latin America.
