120041 IK Practical Phonetics and Oral Communication Skills 1 (2009S)

Building on the knowledge in phonetics and phonology acquired in the Introduction to the Study of Language 1 lecture, this course further elaborates the main aspects of English pronunciation at both the segmental and suprasegmental level, and provides ample opportunity for practice. There are courses taking either American or British English as their teaching models. It is recommended that students choose the accent they feel corresponds more closely to their English or the accent they can identify with most. The course also comprises a compulsory two-hour lab session each week with a student tutor
Important notice: This course includes obligatory practice in the language lab for which students must register separately on 6 March 2009 with Christine Klein [10 a.m. -1 p.m. / SE2]
