Better English Pronunciation
Anotace:Systematické a důkladné seznámení s výslovností angličtiny na střední a pokročilé úrovni - knihaPopis:This is the new edition of a highly successful and widely used text on pronunciation. After a short introduction to pronunciation problems the author explains how the speech organs work; he then deals with each sound separately before dealing with words in combination, rhythm-patterns and intonation. It provides a systematic and thorough introduction to the pronunciation of English to help intermediate and more advanced students improve their production of the spoken language.
The particular difficulties of the speakers of certain other languages are noted, and remedial exercises provided. Practice material is given at intervals throughout the book. A recording of all the practice material in the book is available on cassettes.Contents: Acknowledgements; Foreword to the second edition; 1.
