Letters are the basic building blocks of language that combine to form words. Words are the smallest units of language that can stand alone and have meaning. Words are formed from combinations of letters and morphemes, the smallest units of meaning. Sentences are combinations of words that express a complete thought through a statement, question, command, or exclamation, with a capital letter at the beginning and ending punctuation.
The document discusses the key elements of oral language:
- Phonology refers to the proper pronunciation of words.
- Vocabulary/Semantics refers to the words or terms that are spoken.
- Morphology is about how words are formed by combining prefixes and suffixes and understanding word meanings.
- Grammar/Syntax provides guidelines for how to structure sentences to convey ideas clearly.
- Pragmatics is about how groups of people communicate and understand each other based on social conventions.
The document encourages learning about these elements of oral language to improve English pronunciation, writing, and communication skills.
In this ducument, you will find some English pronunciation problems for the non-native speaker and how this English phonetic-phonology ourse plays its role to cope with the problems.
This document provides an introduction to phonetics. It defines phonetics as the study of speech sounds and explains that it involves the complex process of conceptualizing an idea, transmitting it through the nervous system to speech organs, and producing sound waves to communicate. It describes the key organs involved in speech production and defines a phoneme as the smallest unit of phonetics. The document outlines that there are 44 phonemes in English, including 20 vowel phonemes divided into pure vowels and diphthongs. It provides a phonemic chart and discusses vowels in more detail, explaining the categories of pure vowels and diphthongs and providing examples.

There are three key contrasting features between English and Spanish: spelling, noun forms, and verb tenses. These differences can lead to errors for students learning the second language. Teachers have instructional tools to help correct errors stemming from these specific language differences.
Phonemes are the smallest units of sound in a language that are used to distinguish meaning. In English there are approximately 44 phonemes represented by 26 letters and letter combinations. Phonemes can vary phonetically as allophones without changing the meaning, such as the "p" sound in "pin" and "spin" both being allophones of the phoneme "p". To identify the phonemes in a word, it must be segmented, or broken down, into its individual sounds.
This document discusses different types of dictionaries and their appropriate uses for language learners. It begins by explaining that dictionaries are an important learning tool but many teachers do not teach students how to use them effectively. It then describes bilingual dictionaries, monolingual dictionaries for native speakers, learner dictionaries designed for language learners, picture dictionaries, and production dictionaries. While bilingual dictionaries can provide quick translations, learner dictionaries are better for developing independent English skills when students are ready. Both have roles to play and teachers should guide students on the appropriate uses of each.

Enhancing the "E" in English: Increasing Fluency Phrase by PhraseMarsha J. Chan
See how to English language learners can progress from uttering sounds to pronouncing words to speaking rhythmically phrase by phrase. Examine materials (DVD, audio CD, book), methods, and activities that engage visual, auditory, and kinesthetic modalities to promote transformative pronunciation and oral communication outcomes.
Morphology is the study of words and their structure. Words are made up of individual units of meaning called morphemes, which can be free or bound. Free morphemes can stand alone as words, while bound morphemes must be attached to other morphemes. There are two types of affixes - derivational, which form new words, and inflectional, which mark grammatical functions. New words can be formed through processes like compounding, acronyms, back-formations, abbreviations, eponyms, and blending.
This document discusses word forms and parts of speech in English. It provides examples of how knowledge of word forms can help English learners by building vocabulary and understanding complex sentences. It also discusses how word forms are useful for writing, paraphrasing and summarizing. The document then defines and provides examples of the eight common parts of speech in English. It concludes by emphasizing the importance of paying attention to word order and parts of speech when learning and provides tips for improving use of word forms.
The document discusses body parts and members of a family. It appears to be from an English vocabulary learning resource titled "English 4 U Vocabulary" that focuses on body parts and family members as topics to learn vocabulary words. The document is short with little context, but aims to teach English vocabulary related to the human body and relationships between family members.
This document discusses morphology and vocabulary acquisition in the English language. It explains that morphology, the study of word formation, can help learners of English break down unfamiliar words into constituent parts to determine meaning. However, it notes that some words cannot be analyzed this way due to consisting of a single morpheme or having an unknown meaning. Additionally, idioms present difficulties as their meanings cannot be derived from individual words. The document also discusses other challenges like clitics, words not listed in dictionaries, and changes in vocabulary over time. Overall, it analyzes the complexities of the English lexicon and how morphology can aid but also has limitations in understanding new vocabulary.
English vocabulary and basic grammar teaching by morphologyAhmad Mashhood
This document discusses morphology and morphemes in the English language. It defines morphology as the study of forms and morphemes as the smallest units of meaning in a language. There are two types of morphemes: free morphemes, which can stand alone as words, and bound morphemes, which cannot stand alone and include prefixes, suffixes, and infixes. Morphemes are further classified as lexical, carrying the content of language, or functional, including conjunctions and prepositions. Bound morphemes are divided into derivational, which change word categories, and inflectional, which indicate grammatical functions like number, tense, and comparison.
This document summarizes research on the Thai language and profiles a Thai English language learner named See Loh. It compares features of the Thai and English languages, such as Thai having 44 consonants and 32 vowels while English has 26 letters. It also discusses See Loh's language errors and interlanguage development, noting differences between Thai and English grammar contribute to her mistakes. The document concludes that understanding these differences can help educators properly instruct Thai English learners.
This document discusses the purpose and proper use of dictionaries. It begins by defining a dictionary as a reference book that provides information about words, usually in alphabetical order, including their meanings, pronunciations, origins, and parts of speech. It then provides instructions on how to use a dictionary by understanding its organizational structure and guidewords. Finally, it outlines the various functions of a dictionary beyond simply defining words, such as providing synonyms, information on usage, and enriching one's vocabulary.

Learn about Spanish verbs. In Spanish, there are three types of verbs: -at, -er and -ir ending. Also, there are two types of verbs based on their conjugation - regular and irregular. This lesson is an introduction to the types of verbs in Spanish.
1) Pronunciation problems arise due to a lack of focus on pronunciation in teaching, influence of mother tongue, and inability to hear certain sounds.
2) In English, there are 44 sounds but only 26 letters, so spellings are not always a reliable guide to pronunciation. Certain letters have multiple sounds and some are sometimes silent.
3) Getting the schwa sound correct is important for accurate pronunciation. The schwa is the most common sound in English and occurs in unstressed syllables.
The document compares features of the Turkish and English languages. It notes that Turkish belongs to the Altaic language group while English is Indo-European. Key differences discussed include Turkish using vowel harmony and having regular verbs while English does not and has irregular verbs. It also discusses errors Turkish students commonly make in English, such as overusing gerunds and omitting copula verbs. The document concludes by stating the main areas of focus for teaching English to Turkish students are pronunciation, articles, verbs, and prepositions/idioms.
江振宇/It's Not What You Say: It's How You Say It!台灣資料科學年會
This document discusses prosody modeling for Mandarin Chinese speech. It begins with an introduction to prosody and its importance in communication. Prosody can be measured acoustically using features like fundamental frequency, duration, intensity, and pause. A prosodic hierarchy for Mandarin is proposed with different levels like syllable, prosodic word, phrase, and breath group. Unsupervised joint prosody labeling and modeling is introduced as an approach that models observed prosodic features to determine prosodic tags without human perception. Parameters and a hierarchical model are used to represent prosodic structures and model relationships between linguistic information and prosodic-acoustic features.
Pronunciation is the bridge between you and a native English speaker. It is the first thing that anyone notices about you, when you start to speak. It connects you. Without clear pronunciation, messages can get lost or confused. The listener might even start to feel frustrated because they don't understand what is being said.
Intonation refers to the rising and falling tones of one's voice when speaking. In English, intonation makes the language sound distinct and adds meaning. It shows relationships between words and sentences and conveys a speaker's feelings. English uses two basic intonation patterns: rising tones that go up at the end of an utterance like a question, and falling tones that go down, like a statement. A falling-rising pattern first falls then rises, and can imply additional information. Correct use of these three patterns - falling, rising, and falling-rising - is important for speaking English clearly and naturally.
This document summarizes an English student's portfolio for the semester. It includes activities done in 3 hours of English class, 1 hour of conversation group, and 1 hour in the English lab each week. During the first week, the student took a diagnostic test, introduced themselves in conversation group and discussed political parties, and focused on grammar and learning styles in class.
Morphology is the study of word structure and formation. It examines the smallest meaningful units called morphemes, which can be free or bound. Words are formed through processes like affixation using prefixes, suffixes, and infixes, compounding, blending, ablaut, and abbreviations. Some key morphological concepts are roots, affixes, allomorphs, and types of words classified by their morpheme structure as simple, complex, or compound.
This document discusses the sounds of the English language. It explains that English has 44 phonemes or smallest units of sound, including 24 consonants and 20 vowels. It introduces the International Phonetic Alphabet which provides symbols to accurately write down the sounds of any language. The document also describes some key aspects of English pronunciation including stress patterns, intonation, and differences between British and American pronunciations.
This document discusses pronunciation in the English language. It begins by explaining that pronunciation differs across regions but is defined as how words are usually spoken to be easily understood. It then covers vowels, diphthongs, consonants, and consonant clusters as the main components of pronunciation. The document classifies the 44 speech sounds in English into 20 vowel sounds (including 12 monophthongs and 8 diphthongs) and 24 consonant sounds. It describes how vowels are produced without obstruction of air flow while consonants involve partially blocking air flow. The document also discusses consonant clusters and how native speakers may not fully pronounce sequences of three or more consonants.
The document compares key differences between the Spanish and English languages. Spanish has a 27-letter alphabet including ñ, stresses all syllables equally, and implies verb tense through conjugation. English has 26 letters, stresses some syllables more than others, and does not imply tense through conjugation alone. The document also lists common errors made by Spanish speakers in English, such as mispronouncing consonant digraphs, incorrect word order, and improper verb tense.
The document provides an overview of phonetics and pronunciation teaching. It discusses the objectives of improving pronunciation, defines phonetics and phonology, and explains the difference between them. It also describes features of good pronunciation, the articulation process, segmental and suprasegmental features, and rules for teaching pronunciation including using minimal pairs and sets. The goal is for participants to understand pronunciation at an articulatory level and effectively teach English sounds and prosody.

Teaching Service Words and Reading Phrases and SentencesCyvi Ann Maraño
This document discusses strategies for determining the meaning of unknown words:
Configuration clues examine a word's physical characteristics like length, letters that extend above or below the line, and repeated letters. Context clues derive meaning from how the word is used in a sentence or what word might come next. Phonetic analysis applies rules of pronunciation to syllable structure and sounds. Structural analysis breaks words into meaningful parts like prefixes, suffixes, roots, and compound words. Basic sight words and common words are joined to form phrases and sentences.
FREE ELT BOOK Clear Alphabet Dictionary - by Matt PurlandPurland Training

This book is in the public domain, so please feel free to share it widely! #English #ESOL #ELT #Phonics
Received Pronunciation (RP) is considered the standard British English accent. It is an accent, not a dialect, as RP speakers use Standard English. There are 20 vowels in English that can be divided into 12 monophthongs and 8 diphthongs. Vowels are classified based on tongue position and lip rounding. Word stress helps distinguish grammatical functions and morphological structures in English. Suprasegmental features like stress, tone, and rhythm are important for meaningful speech. Intonation involves pitch changes and conveys meanings through tones like falling, rising, and fall-rise.
The document provides tips for becoming an effective communicator in English, including smiling, being confident, practicing regularly, and thinking in English. It then discusses various aspects of pronunciation like accent, vowels, consonants, and proper articulation. Finally, it lists sample sentences to practice pronunciation.
This document provides an overview of English phonetics. It begins by explaining the need to learn phonetics as English pronunciation can differ from its spelling. It then defines phonetics as the study of sounds in language and notes it is a branch of linguistics. The document outlines that languages have consonants and vowels, defined as sounds produced with partial or full obstruction of air flow. It provides definitions of consonants and vowels from various linguistic sources and notes consonants are categorized by their place and manner of articulation, while vowels are categorized by tongue position and lip shape. In closing, it wishes the reader luck on their exam and provides a website for additional information.
To improve American English pronunciation and develop an American accent, one should: 1) Use correct word and sentence stress as American patterns are based on stress and intonation. 2) Link words together and reduce phrases to sound more natural as is common in spoken American English. 3) Learn to pronounce the 52 possible sounds made by the 26 letters to effectively apply American English vowels and consonant sounds to one's accent.
Learner Language: Vocabulary and PhonologyKaren Murphy
This document discusses learner language vocabulary and phonology. It covers key topics such as the aspects of words, frequency, strategies for meaning and acquisition, learner problems with phonology, and techniques for teaching pronunciation. Specifically, it notes that vocabulary errors are very common and disruptive for learners. It also explains how the learner's first language strongly influences their problems with the phonology of the second language.
This document summarizes the linguistic abilities and errors of an 8-year-old English Language Learner from Puerto Rico in the 2nd grade. His biggest weakness was reading, being approximately one year behind. Some common errors included issues with digraph pronunciation, fluency, spelling vowels incorrectly, word order mistakes, and improper use of verb tenses. These errors can be attributed to transfers from rules in Spanish to English. The summary recommends educational approaches like building vocabulary across the curriculum and comparing/contrasting linguistic structures in Spanish and English.

This document discusses morphology and word formation processes in English. It defines morphology as the study of word forms and describes different types of morphemes: free morphemes which can stand alone as words, and bound morphemes which cannot stand alone and are affixed to other morphemes. The main word formation processes discussed are derivation, which uses affixes to create new words, and compounding, blending, clipping, backformation, acronyms, conversion and borrowing, which form new words in other ways such as combining existing words or shortening words. Derivation using prefixes and suffixes is described as the most common word formation process in English.

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
