Chapters in Phonetics and Phonetic Transcription

Synopsis

This book is a clear and basic Introduction to Phonetics and the learning of Pronunciation. The reader can learn the required skills for recognizing, describing, registering and pronouncing of most sounds, without prior knowledge. A special emphasis is given to the sounds of the spoken Hebrew through the generations and its accents.
Combined in the book's twenty chapters are current Phonetic innovations of the author and his colleagues. Pictures and illustrations accompany the text and make its understanding easier, and examples from living languages and exercised leading to the proficiency required of every linguist, are also combined. The book is accompanied by a CD with exercises and their solution.
