Book excerpt: Among the four skills of a language - listening, speaking, reading and writing, much magnitude is dedicated to writing and reading. Sporadically, a few minutes are spared to speaking and listening. It is ineluctably true that listening-speaking function plays a dynamic responsibility in verbal communication where de rigueur pronunciation is the venture for both the speaker and listener. Pronunciation is a paramount skill in any language because, successful communication possibly incomplete without proper pronunciation. In English, pronunciation is a substantial skill, it is as important as vocabulary and grammar for intelligible communication. But for ages, it has been one of the hard nuts to crack for many non-native speakers. Many learners and speakers feel that it is a very challenging skill to master.Though it was disregarded in the past, today learner's started understanding the significance of pronunciation. This attitude has emanated mainly due to globalization. English is a mandate skill and an important medium of communication in every industry and business. So, it is necessary to speak the language which is intelligible to everyone around the globe. The interlocutor comprehends the speaker not based on the words, but how effectively it is spoken. Every word is understood based on the tone or sound first than the word itself. Therefore, the tone must be appropriate for clear understanding, otherwise it may mainspring bewilderment and cause communication breakdown. Today, in this highly competitive English-speaking world, clarity in pronunciation is a demand for flawless communication. Although, English has twenty-six alphabet, it brings about forty-four phonemes (speech sounds). Every sound is personified by unique phonemic symbols; International Phonetic Alphabet. Therefore, words are pronounced based on the phonemic symbol. These symbols stand as a formula in order to pronounce words properly. So, one must learn and master the symbols and its sounds to speak perfect English. English is the universal language and everyone shares the same words, phrases and sentences to communicate each other. But when we speak to the native speakers and some ESL speakers struggle to understand us which is mainly due to the non-standard pronunciation of English words. Some of the primary and undeniable causes for this state is the lack of exposure on pronunciation skills.Most of us are not exposed to International Phonetic Alphabet starting from school till higher education. Only very few stresses the importance of proper pronunciation skills and the necessity for proper communication. Even today, majority of the English learners taught to pronounce words based on the spelling. Enough awareness on pronunciation skills is neglected to the ESL learners and speakers. This workbook is intended to enhance the ESL learners with the International Phonetic Alphabet symbols. This book will help them to master the phonetic symbols with examples. This exposure enable them to learn to pronounce English words appropriately. This book is designed for all level of learners.

Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • For anyone who wants to learn a foreign language, this is the method that will finally make the words stick. “A brilliant and thoroughly modern guide to learning new languages.”—Gary Marcus, cognitive psychologist and author of the New York Times bestseller Guitar Zero At thirty years old, Gabriel Wyner speaks six languages fluently. He didn’t learn them in school—who does? Rather, he learned them in the past few years, working on his own and practicing on the subway, using simple techniques and free online resources—and here he wants to show others what he’s discovered. Starting with pronunciation, you’ll learn how to rewire your ears and turn foreign sounds into familiar sounds. You’ll retrain your tongue to produce those sounds accurately, using tricks from opera singers and actors. Next, you’ll begin to tackle words, and connect sounds and spellings to imagery rather than translations, which will enable you to think in a foreign language. And with the help of sophisticated spaced-repetition techniques, you’ll be able to memorize hundreds of words a month in minutes every day. This is brain hacking at its most exciting, taking what we know about neuroscience and linguistics and using it to create the most efficient and enjoyable way to learn a foreign language in the spare minutes of your day.

Book Synopsis Dictionary of the British English Spelling System by : Greg Brooks
Download or read book Dictionary of the British English Spelling System written by Greg Brooks and published by Open Book Publishers. This book was released on 2015-03-30 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book will tell all you need to know about British English spelling. It's a reference work intended for anyone interested in the English language, especially those who teach it, whatever the age or mother tongue of their students. It will be particularly useful to those wishing to produce well-designed materials for teaching initial literacy via phonics, for teaching English as a foreign or second language, and for teacher training. English spelling is notoriously complicated and difficult to learn; it is correctly described as much less regular and predictable than any other alphabetic orthography. However, there is more regularity in the English spelling system than is generally appreciated. This book provides, for the first time, a thorough account of the whole complex system. It does so by describing how phonemes relate to graphemes and vice versa. It enables searches for particular words, so that one can easily find, not the meanings or pronunciations of words, but the other words with which those with unusual phoneme-grapheme/grapheme-phoneme correspondences keep company. Other unique features of this book include teacher-friendly lists of correspondences and various regularities not described by previous authorities, for example the strong tendency for the letter-name vowel phonemes (the names of the letters ) to be spelt with those single letters in non-final syllables.
