KG                 http://www.narr.de/ Book URL: http://www.narr-shop.de/index.php/a-manual-of-english-phonetics-and-phonology-8441.html Author: Paul Skandera Author: Peter Burleigh Paperback: ISBN: 9783823366652 Pages: 169 Price: Europe EURO 19.90 Abstract: This is a fully integrated course book aimed at university students of English in the German-speaking region. It presents a staged and clearly developed introduction to the theory of pronunciation combined with a wealth of transcription exercises and an accompanying CD. The book requires no prior knowledge of linguistics. From the outset, it explains key concepts in easy- to-understand language, highlights key terms in the text for easy review, and gives translations of many of the terms into German. Additionally, a glossary provides students with a handy quick reference. The transcription exercises guide students from exploratory tasks to basic transcription to the more demanding transcription of natural dialogue, and all exercises are supplied with annotated solutions. The book is carefully divided into lessons and exercises which can be managed in 12 two-hour classes, leaving enough time for review and examination in a university term of 14 weeks or more. In this second edition, the book has been thoroughly revised and adapted for better readability and increased consistency in the use of terminology.
