This clear, systematic, easy-to-understand text provides freshman and sophomore-level speech and hearing students with a good understanding of phonetics principles through practice. Fundamentals of Phonetics uses in-text exercises and supplemental audio recordings to teach the practical skills necessary to successfully perform phonetic transcription of individuals using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). Students learn about the transcription of consonants and vowels, connected speech, and individuals with speech sound disorders. A chapter on speech acoustics introduces spectrograms and the acoustic characteristics of speech sounds. Students also learn how to transcribe individuals who display regional and ethnic dialectal variation of speech, including those who have learned to speak English as a second language. Throughout the well-organized text, chapter objectives, CD icons, learning exercise with an answer key, in-class and take-home assignments, online resources, and study questions help students learn, process, and practice the material presented in the text.
