This seminar explores the fundamentals of English phonetics and phonology at the segmental level. We will delve into the articulatory and acoustic description of sounds, focusing mainly on consonants and vowels of two varieties of English. You will take first steps in analyzing speech data using Praat software and conduct an experimental study, in which you will compare your own English pronunciation to that of a native speaker. By the end of the seminar, you will have developed a deeper understanding of English segmentals and acquired practical skills in phonetic analysis.
