Beschreibung
An important new text on phonetics which is studied on the majority of linguistic undergraduate degree courses. Also relevant for speech pathology courses and for students of English as a second language. 'The Sounds of Language' provides an accessible, general introduction to phonetics with a special emphasis on English. Phonetics is the study of sounds used in language: how the sounds are produced, how they are transferred from the speaker to the hearer and how they are heard and perceived.
