Pronunciation Challenges

People commonly complain about the inadequacies of the English spelling system and about the difficulties that arise when they try to pronounce unfamiliar words. Many other languages are not plagued with these problems. Native speakers of English who are learning Czech, Finnish, Spanish, or Polish are delighted to discover that the pronunciation of a word in these languages can be predicted with a high degree of accuracy by its spelling. And conversely, the correct spelling of a word can be fairly easily deduced from its pronunciation. Unfortunately, in English the correlation between spelling and pronunciation is not as close. Just consider, for example, the letter a, which represents a different vowel sound in each of the following words: pat, mane, father, any, village, waffle, wall, was. Or consider the short e sound in pet, which may also be spelled a (any), ae (aesthetic), ai (said), ay (says), ea (thread), ei (heifer), eo (leopard), ie (friendly), oe (roentgen), and u (burial).

How To Improve Your Pronunciation

Here's How:

1. Learn the following rules concerning pronunciation.
2. English is considered a stressed language while many other languages are considered syllabic.
3. In other languages, such as French or Italian, each syllable receives equal importance (there is stress, but each syllable has its own length).
4. English pronunciation focuses on specific stressed words while quickly gliding over the other, non-stressed, words.
5. Stressed words are considered content words: Nouns e.g. kitchen, Peter - (most) principle verbs e.g. visit, construct - Adjectives e.g. beautiful, interesting - Adverbs e.g. often, carefully
6. Non-stressed words are considered function words: Determiners e.g. the, a - Auxiliary verbs e.g. am, were - Prepositions e.g. before, of - Conjunctions e.g. but, and - Pronouns e.g. they, she
7. Read the following sentence aloud: The beautiful Mountain appeared transfixed in the distance.
8. Read the following sentence aloud: He can come on Sundays as long as he doesn't have to do any homework in the evening.
9. Notice that the first sentence actually takes about the same time to speak well!
10. Even though the second sentence is approximately 30% longer than the first, the sentences take the same time to speak. This is because there are 5 stressed words in each sentence.
11. Write down a few sentences, or take a few example sentences from a book or exercise.
12. First underline the stressed words, then read aloud focusing on stressing the underlined words and gliding over the non-stressed words.
13. Be surprised at how quickly your pronunciation improves! By focusing on stressed words, non-stressed words and syllables take on their more muted nature.
14. When listening to native speakers, focus on how those speakers stress certain words and begin to copy this.
    

Tips:

1. Remember that non-stressed words and syllables are often "swallowed" in English.
2. Always focus on pronouncing stressed words well, non-stressed words can be glided over.
3. Don't focus on pronouncing each word. Focus on the stressed words in each sentence.

عشق زیبا

 

Beautiful Love

Always, deep within my soul,
I know we have a love like no other.
What we share is something others
only hope for and dream of,
but few ever experience.
Our love is magical beyond belief.
Always, without hesitation,
you give of yourself completely.
You have reached the very depths of my soul,
bringing out emotions I never knew I had
and unveiling an ability to love
I never thought possible.

برهمگان آشکار است که یاد گیری الفبای یک زبان هرگز به درست خواندن و تلفظ صحیح کلمات آن کمکی نمی کند بلکه کلمات از اصواتی تشکیل شده اند که شناسایی هر یک و کاربرد های مختلف آنهاست که اهمیت دارد . نظر به تفاوت میان انگلیسی برتانیایی و انگلیسی آمریکایی باید خاطر نشان ساخت که در مبحث پیش رو معیار تلفظ انگلیسی برتانیایی است .
