10. ANSWERS
• The autor’s main arguments are: provide more explicit information about teaching and
learning pronunciation; suggest that the importance of oral production pronunciation must
be proportional to the interest one has in teaching and learning pronunciation.
• The conclusión drawn at the end of the thesis is to prove the importance of having and
developing a good pronunciation performance. The drawbacks oral pronunciation could
caused if not learn properly.
• To reflect about how important is to have a good oral pronunciation performance, also to
insist people to be concious about linguistcal issues in pronunciation.
• Some or at least the majority of people have to deal with factors that may be delay with the
proccess of having good oral performance. Until now I’m very exciting to see this thesis so
well organized and clear in its methodology.
• Yes, I believe some of the assumptions in this thesis have suggested that it exists many factors
changing the process of learning a second language and it is more difficult to those who
have already problems with pronunciation in their own language.
