A Course in Spoken English
Practical English Phonetics and Phonology The course aims at improving one's spoken English through the understanding of the important theories and applications concerning the pronunciation and speech of English. The course is divided into two partsPart I:
Introduction to Phonetics: English phonemes will be explained in terms of International Phonetic Symbols; vowels and diphthongs; consonants in respect of the manner and the place of articulations; the application of phonetic symbols in dictionaries. After this fundamental stage, participants are expected to have the ability to pronounce every word shown in a dictionary. Part II: Phonology: the differences in accents between General British and General American, Australian and others. Stress and weak form of words. Sounds changes in connected speech: assimilation, elision and linking; introduction to intonation. The course is instructed in Cantonese and English to help participants to understand the bilingual differences and the causes of common errors in pronunciation. The course will be invaluable to those who have to communicate with native English speakers in their work or studies (college students), prospective emigrants and students planning to study abroad. Teachers who have to instruct their lessons in English will also find the course useful. (Entry requirement: age 18 or above)
