Abstract:

Editor's Note: This is a new third edition of a previously announced book.

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.
