Abstract:

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

The new updated and enlarged edition of this book applies the principles of
Natural Phonetics & Tonetics to describe the pronunciation of German,
including intonation, in a precise way never found in earlier treatises. It
includes an introduction to the Natural Phonotonetics Method, which can be
used for any other language, as well (without the sadly known limitations of
official IPA).

The vowels, consonants, structures, and intonation of German are fully
described and transcribed, with many examples of words, sentences, and
conversations, in addition to the intonationally integrated IPA sample passage
‘The North Wind and the Sun’ and a poem. A chapter gives more than 300 reduced
forms (or ‘weak forms’), with several gradations and examples.
Different types of German pronunciation are fully described, starting with 5
for Germany: international, neutral, traditional, mediatic and North-east.
Then, the neutral, mediatic and broad pronunciations currently used in
Austria, Switzerland and South Tyrol are extensively treated.

Three more chapters describe (with 5 clear phonic maps) the 34 regional
accents found in: Germany (18), Austria (9) and Switzerland (7), followed by
those in Liechtenstein, Alsace, Lorraine, Luxemburg and Eastern Wallonia
(Belgium).

Other chapters provide more than 10 traditional dialects, 17 foreign accents
of German, 6 diachronic stages, 26 concise language phonopses for easier
comparisons, and the typical pronunciation of English by German-speaking
people.

A mini-phono-dictionary contains more than 2200 words and proper names usually
puzzling and challenging especially for foreigners.
