Description

Manual of American English Pronunciation for Adult Foreign Students is an essential guide for educators and advanced learners aiming to master American English pronunciation. Designed specifically for adults with prior exposure to English, it addresses the unique challenges faced by students from diverse linguistic backgrounds. With its focus on General American English―the standard dialect spoken across the central and western United States―this manual equips learners with tools to achieve clarity and naturalness in their spoken English. Developed and refined at the University of California, Los Angeles, the manual combines scientific principles of linguistics with practical classroom-tested techniques. It emphasizes rhythm, intonation, and stress patterns that often hinder intelligibility when neglected. Through systematic drills, phonetic transcription exercises, and innovative use of playback equipment, learners can target and correct speech difficulties. The text is not just a technical resource; it incorporates real-world scenarios, encouraging learners to practice pronunciation in conversational and reading contexts. This makes it a valuable resource for educators teaching English as a second language and for learners seeking to refine their American English pronunciation. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1951.
