Hello Zhangfeng,

I'd like to offer truespel phonetics for American Englishpronunciation as an online resource.  Itis an up-to-date pronunciation from “talking” US dictionaries.

 Truespel was created in 1986 to fill a giant gap ineducation.  I've collected many truespellinks and put them in a launch-able listing at this website,https://bit.ly/2D7V3CH for free and open online use.

 From my FAA human factors background, the goal of truespelis to create an English-based phonetic system that kids as well as adults canuse. Studies mentioned in the link above will show that this is needed andworks for teaching K-1 reading, and assists in ESL pronunciation. Also, thereis unique information on English phoneme frequency and spelling frequency.

 I hope I can participate with you on American English withtruespel phonetics.

 Sincerely,

Tom Zurinskas,creator of truespel

“This book offers a critical exploration of definitions, methodologies and ideologies of English-medium instruction (EMI), contributing to new understandings of translanguaging as theory and pedagogy across diverse contexts. It brings together a number of conceptual and empirical studies on translanguaging in EMI at different educational levels, in a variety of countries, with different approaches to translanguaging, different named languages, and different policies. These studies include several underrepresented contexts across the globe, providing a broad view of how translanguaging in EMI is understood in these educational settings. Furthermore, this book addresses the complexities of translanguaging through a discussion of the affordances and constraints associated with the use of multiple linguistic resources in the EMI classroom.”
