121191 IK Practical Phonetics and Oral Communication Skills 1 (2014S)

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 most closely to their English or the accent they can identify with most.
PPOCS 1 comprises a compulsory two-hour Language Lab session each week, for which students must register separately (Sprachlabor zu PPOCS, LV nos 121193, 121194).
