The second edition of this best selling textbook introduces
undergraduates to the concepts, terminology and representations
needed for an understanding of how English is pronounced around the
world. Assuming no prior knowledge, it guides the reader through
the vocal tract and explains how the sounds of speech are made,
offering an accessible and expanded introduction to areas including
transcription, vowels and acoustic analysis. As far as possible, it
uses naturally-occurring conversational speech so that readers are
familiar with the details of everyday talk (and not just the
careful pronunciations presented in dictionaries). The book also
includes a new concluding chapter that works through a piece of
spoken data to show the reader how a more complete phonetic
analysis can be conducted.
