Elementary introduction to phonemic transcription. - Primera Edición - 207 páginas ilustraciones; tablas

The main purpose of this book is to enhance standardized English vowel pronunciation among L2 learners through phonemic transcription materials. For achieving that particular goal, it was essential to do some literature review about Phonology, Phonemic and phonetic transcriptions. Later on, some materials and games have been analyzed and performed during authors’ classes. Having done so, the authors validated their materials and games, as possible techniques, for enhancing L2 learners’ pronunciation. Some linguists suggest that non- English speakers trained in the International Phonetic Alphabet could comprehend how to pronounce English phonemes accurately, and improve their listening and pronunciation skills respectively.
