Meeting Description:

Most of the data used to explore and explain phonetic variation in the speech of foreign language learners was recorded on a small-scale in experimental research. Likewise language learner corpora are usually based on written rather than on spoken data whereas phonetically annotated corpora of various speech styles do not explicitly consider language learners as speakers. However, we notice a growing number of research using large-scale collections of phonetic learner data as well as the development and investigation of full-fledged phonetic learner corpora. The aim of this half-day workshop is to bring together researchers working with large-scale data sets of speech in a background of foreign and second language learning. The target audience comprises colleagues setting up learner corpora, experts in phonetic corpora, researchers with phonetic and phonological experiments in L2 acquisition, and those with an interest in phonetic aspects of L2 teaching and non-native speech in gener
 al.
