For this unit we cover Pronunciation and Phonology, meaning we cover how to pronounce the individual parts of words and how to read the structure of words. Pronouncing can include but not be limited to the sounds of words, stress sounds within words and sounds in connected speech; for example the Rise/Fall pattern, stress and lack of stress on syllables, linking sounds in a sentence, etc. Examples of being able to read the structure of words can include the Phonemic Alphabet, Phonemic Symbols, and the Speech Organs. The Phonemic Alphabet and the Symbols are a standardized way of working out how a word would sound, but the pronunciation may change depending on the type of English that you use (British English, American English, Australian, etc.) due to where the stresses would fall in your normal speech patterns. I feel that I definitely have a better and broader understanding of the difficulty that Pronunciation presents to students learning English as a second language. I also really appreciated the diagrams of the Speech Organs because it helps to visually give you an idea of where and how the sounds are formed.
