Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book approaches the subject of spoken English with a mix of linguistic analysis and discussion of the practical skills needed for effective communication. The author provides a structured guide to the different sounds produced in Standard English, and discusses the movements of the vocal chords and tongue needed to produce them. This leads into chapters on the development of speech sounds, the history of the English spelling system, and the different accents and dialects of the language. The book also includes a detailed examination of the physiology of the vocal organs and the importance of correct breathing to clear speech, helping readers to perfect their vocal delivery and pronunciation. The author additionally provides practical exercises to improve the readerâs ear for speech sounds, and guidance on adapting their speech for public speaking, singing, or teaching. The author provides a wealth of information on the pronunciation of Standard English, its history, and the different factors that have shaped it, making this book a valuable resource for phoneticians, linguists, speech therapists, and anyone who wants to improve their own spoken English.
