Description

Since its debut in 1962, Gimson's Pronunciation of English has served as the primary reference for students and teachers of English pronunciation. This eighth edition provides an updated look at the language, establishing General British (GB) as the principal accent instead of Received Pronunciation (RP). This shift reflects modern linguistic realities and ensures learners are studying the most current standards. This edition includes updated transcriptions that reflect recent changes in how English is spoken. Readers will find completely rewritten chapters covering the history of the language and the emergence of a standard. The text also provides a clear justification for the transition from RP to GB, making it a vital resource for those seeking a deep understanding of phonetic evolution. Whether you are an advanced student or a professional educator, this Routledge publication offers the essential tools needed to master English phonetics and pronunciation.
