あらすじ・解説
If you’ve ever wondered about accents and how they shape the way you speak English, this book is for you. "Achieving A Fluent English Accent: An English Pronunciation Guide for Non-Native Speakers" dives deep into the intricacies of English pronunciation, helping you master the sounds and nuances of the language.
Starting with an exploration of what an accent is, you’ll quickly move into the specifics of the English language sounds. Understanding why the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) is essential for non-native learners will set the foundation for your journey. You'll get acquainted with English consonants, both voiced and unvoiced, and English vowels, which will help you grasp the basic building blocks of pronunciation.
Accent reduction rules and intonation are crucial aspects of speaking English fluently. You’ll learn about different intonation patterns, such as falling, rising, and rise-fall intonations, and how they influence the meaning of your sentences. Stress patterns, both at the word level and beyond, will also be covered, giving you insights into the rhythm and flow of English speech.
Linking sounds and assimilation are another focus of the book, with practical guidance and exercises to help you practice these concepts. Breath control exercises will improve your speaking endurance and clarity, while shadow speaking exercises will refine your listening and speaking skills simultaneously.
The book also delves into tongue, lip, and mouth placement, which are critical for accurate pronunciation. You’ll practice with minimal pairs, rhyming exercises, and alliterations to perfect your articulation. Specific language guidance for Spanish, French, German, Japanese, and Chinese speakers ensures that your unique challenges are addressed.
With this comprehensive guide, you’ll gain confidence in your English pronunciation, reduce your accent, and speak with greater clarity and fluency.
