Subject: The Intelligibility of English as an International Language Survey

 
Dear Fellow Linguists:

I've come here to ask for your help. I'm at the final stage of my PhD research
on he Pronunciation of English as an International Language/Lingua Franca in
Spain. I would be more than grateful if you could help me out by completing my
survey. The survey collects data on the comprehensibility, intelligibility and
foreign-accentedness of English as a Lingua Franca as spoken by Spanish
speakers. I'm collecting data from native English listeners, Spanish listeners
and Polish listeners primarily, although all informants are more than welcome
to participate and have been successfully participating so far. The only thing
needed is a pair of headphones and 10-15 minutes of your time. It is quite fun
as you need to figure out what the speakers are saying and most items in the
survey include SUS (Semantically Unpredictable Sentences). The link is
attached below. I will be more than grateful and the universe will pay you
back!! You are beautiful people!

Best wishes, 
Mateusz
