Abstract:

The way in which people speak reveals a lot about where they are from, where they were raised, and also where they have recently lived. When communicating in a foreign language or second language, accents from one’s first language are likely to emerge, giving an individual a ‘strange’ accent. This is a great and challenging problem. Not particularly, because it is a part of one’s personality that they do not have to give up. It is only challenging when pronunciation causes a disruption in communication between an individual and the individuals with whom they are speaking. Making oneself unders

Abstract:

Second or foreign language learners study or are taught various language skill areas, one of which is speaking. In order to speak in the target language, learners must gain some proficiency in the target language’s vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation so that their verbal utterances are meaningful to listeners. However, although pronunciation may be said to be the most fundamental of these three components, it is by far the one that receives the least amount of attention in second or foreign language learning situations. Insufficient attention placed on the pronunciation component can lead t

Abstract:

Form our experience as a university professor, many language classrooms are not attentive to pronunciation and it is often neglected. The two major factors contributing to this situation are teachers’ inability to teach their students proper pronunciation (pronunciation does not exist in or is a minor part of school curricula or teachers themselves are unable to produce native or native-like pronunciation) and the linguistic barrier posed by the native language. For instance, students sometimes feel great discomfort if they have to express themselves in a foreign language. In case of Montenegr

Conventional attitudes and lack of information about the foreign accent can affect the culture and effectiveness of education.  American colleges include large numbers of international and immigrant students who are likely to speak English with a foreign accent. These students often wrestle with negative attitudes to their non-native pronunciation, believing that it reflects upon their academic ability and their commitment to learning English.  When insecurities about pronunciation inhibit students from speaking in class, they cannot become fully involved in the educational process.

One of the key benefits of modern globalization is cross-pollination of cultures. This global community encourages diversity of thinking and communication across language boundaries. However, learning to speak a foreign language is predictably challenging and non-native speakers offer a quasi-infinite source of pronunciation variation. This variation presents a challenge to AI-based technologies where we make assumptions about user behavior and expected runtime input to the models. Inconsistent usage therefore is difficult to model successfully. A study of pronunciation patterns from a set of

Abstract:

Speaking is more than just creating and constructing sentences correctly and with proper grammar, but the ability to speak has a broad scope, such as in the fields of mechanics, functions, pragmatics, communication, and social interaction. To find out the students' ability, the teacher gives them a test. As an assessment, the teacher conducts a speaking test to find out how well students speak and their progress in learning. The speaking test is a procedure to measure students' speaking ability in which students are required to speak aloud, conveying their ideas, and then students are graded b

Accurate pronunciation helps to develop an individual’s social skills by building confidence to speak correctly. Although schools play a fundamental role in teaching English pronunciation, formal phonics training is given only at the pre-primary level in school. After that, the students learn the rest of the phonics by imitating their teachers or elders. The building of an inclusive atmosphere in the classroom through information

Abstract In this article, we explore how the “ideal student” and “the ideal teacher” of a modern foreign language were depicted in 16th and 17th-century textbooks of the genre of so-called “dialogue books”. More specifically we assess in which areas language expertise was expected from students and teachers and how nativeness, i.e., being a native speaker, was construed as an element of this general expertise. Our insights are based on the structure and content of the textbooks. Moreover, we analyse introductory texts, written by textbook authors or printers. The teaching material reveals a st
