Placing contemporary spoken English at the centre of phonological
research, this book tackles the issue of language variation and
change through a range of methodological and theoretical
approaches. In doing so the book bridges traditionally separate
fields such as experimental phonetics, theoretical phonology,
language acquisition and sociolinguistics. Made up of 12 chapters,
it explores a substantial range of linguistic phenomena. It covers
auditory, acoustic and articulatory phonetics, second language
pronunciation and perception, sociophonetics, cross-linguistic
comparison of vowel reduction and methodological issues in the
construction of phonological corpora. The book presents new data
and analyses that demonstrate what phonologists, phoneticians and
sociolinguists do with their corpora and show how various
theoretical and experimental questions can be explored in light of
authentic spoken data.
