Pronunciation and Intonation (only for secondary education English students; entrance exam required)
Inhalt
This course aims to introduce students to basic elements of pronunciation and intonation from both a theoretical and practical point of view, starting out with ‘articulatory phonetics’ (i.e. manner and place of articulation) and then progressing to aspects of ‘connected speech’ (assimilation, elision and weak forms), and also to provide practice at improving students’ own pronunciation competence. The pronunciation model used in the course is standard British English. However, students are free to take any comprehensible, standard native speaking variant as their own model.

Ziel
By the end of the course students will be able to explain and exemplify basic terminology, to transcribe, at word and sentence level, using the IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet), so that they are prepared for future linguistic seminars and can thus successfully speak, read and write about the properties of sounds in an academic context. Students will also be able to demonstrate an acceptable standard of English pronunciation (C1), with emphasis on aspects covered during the course.
